Bob Chapman , in Gold and Silver you buy and Hold
Bob Chapman on Gold and Silver discount trading 01 Octb 2010
Bob Chapman wrote on The International forecaster of the 29th Sept 2010 :"Unbeknownst to most gold and silver shares, coins and bullion have been under accumulation since 2000, by the smart money. Gold alone on a compound basis has been up just under 20% annually. It should also be noted that gold demand rose 36% in the second quarter.
Several events of recent vintage have changed the atmosphere in which gold and silver reside. Six or eight months ago the major NYC banks arranged for a major rally in the dollar, which ran from 74 to 89. It is now back to 79. The problems in Greece were the catalyst, as well as other EU-euro zone member problems. This caused the euro to fall from $1.50 to $1.19. It is now at $1.35. This temporarily boosted the dollar. About 11 weeks ago we predicted a new quantitative easing program in the US and it was put into operation about a month ago. This is the way the Federal Reserve again intends to keep the US economy from collapsing. The result of this move is that again foreign central banks are moving to cheapen their currencies, because the dollar is again falling in value. That is reflected in the increasing foreign exchange dollar reserves of many countries. What they do to cheapen their currencies in US dollar terms is to print their own national currency and purchase dollars. With those dollars they buy US Treasuries or spend them. That process cheapens their currency in dollar terms. This is called intervention...."
Jim Rogers - Silver is 85 % under it´s all time high - October 2010
Jim Rogers :"I just got to say that if I were to go to about precious metals, I would rather look at silver than gold. I own gold and I own silver, but silver is still 60% below its all time high. Gold is making all time highs. So it is usually better to buy low and sell high. I am not selling my gold. Gold will go over $2000 an ounce certainly in the next 5 to 10 years. But silver - on a percentage basis - will probably go up even more during that period of time. "

Bob Chapman wrote on the International forecaster of the 29th Sept 2010 :"It is interesting to watch Wall Street defy reality. This is a scene we’ve observed since the early 1960s, the effect of debt on the economy and the nation and in turn on its currency. The result of the profligacy over all those years is the biggest bull market in history in gold and silver. As we write gold is toying with $1,300 and silver with $21.50. Each day a new high is reached in spite of a pending options expiration and the perpetual market rigging and manipulation by the US government. "

Interest rates working for you or against you ?
According to Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad, the principle difference between rich people and poor people is that rich people have interest rates that work for them — making them money — and poor people have interest rates that work against them — costing them money.
In more detail, rich people make purchases up front rather than using credit or accepting long-term contracts like mortgages or car payments, and they own financial instruments or businesses that make money on their own over time. Poor people need the basics, such as a vehicle and a place to live, and they purchase those things using long-term contracts that end up costing them more, in the long run, than the initial price of the item. When they don’t have enough money to pay an outstanding bill, their only option besides losing access to something vital like hot water or their car is to use credit — which means more debt automatically piling on every month.

There is no Gold at Fort Knox
Craig Hulet on Coast to Coast AM Sept 06 2010 : there is no Gold at Fort Knox
Craig B Hulet was both speech writer and Special Assistant for Special Projects to Congressman Jack Metcalf (Retired). He has been a consultant to federal law enforcement ATF&E of Justice/Homeland Security for over 20 years. Hulet served in Vietnam 1969-70, 101st Airborne, C Troop 2/17th Air Cav and graduated 3rd in his class at Aberdeen Proving Grounds Ordnance School MOS 45J20 Weapons. He remains a paid analyst and consultant in various areas of geopolitical, business and security issues.
Foreign policy analyst Craig B. Hulet discussed new rulings by the US government that infringe on people's privacy under the guise of the "War on Terror." In a recent incident, law enforcement placed a GPS tracking device on a person's vehicle, without a warrant. The court ruled that this was legal because the person's home wasn't gated off from the public, he reported. In another case, a woman was arrested and convicted for videotaping police making an arrest of her neighbor, he detailed. We're seeing that "more and more courts are ruling in favor of violations of our fundamental rights," especially our right to privacy, said Hulet.
Body scans at airports, and other locations are actually being kept on file, when initially people were told this wouldn't be done, he noted, adding that such scans are even being done through vans on the streets. "Once a government has been given a certain amount of power, it always seeks more," he cautioned. Unmanned drones are now being employed for surveillance on the US southern border, and Hulet suggested that it's just a matter of time before such drones are flying over major American cities. In the post 9-11 world, Americans have increasingly traded their liberty for security, he lamented.

Robert Kiyosaki on Buying Gold to Protect against Inflation
How do you turn the financial crisis into your financial success? The value of paper money is going down. In five years, paper money may be valueless. Nowadays, there is unlimited printing of paper money. Countries are going bankrupt, and we may soon face a serious inflation problem in the US and Europe, just like some countries already are living. We're in a debt based economy.

Frank Holmes Gold Absolutely Still a Buy: Metal Will Double in 5 Years
source : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5FHrFXhuBs
Gold jumped back above $1300 per ounce Tuesday morning and "absolutely" has more upside ahead, according to Frank Holmes, CEO and CIO of U.S. Global Investors, which has about $2.6 billion of assets.
Despite all the hype about its multi-year rally, gold is actually lagging many other commodities in that it hasn't yet eclipsed its 1980 high on an inflation-adjusted basis, Holmes says, noting the same is true of silver.
"If we were to go through those 1980 [inflation-] adjusted prices, gold would be at $2300 per ounce today," he says, calling that a "fair" target for the metal.
There is no bubble" in gold, Holmes says, declaring "it's a pretty easy layup that gold can double" from here over the next 5 years.
Holmes, who co-manages U.S. Global's Gold & Precious Metals Fund and World Precious Minerals Fund, cites the following to justify his bullish outlook:
Growth in Global Money Supply: Government efforts to fight the credit crisis have included huge spending and debt guarantee programs, resulting in greater supply but less confidence in "paper money." (On Tuesday, the Dollar Index fell to its lowest level since early February as weak U.S. economic data point to more efforts by the Fed to "reflate" the economy via quantitative easing.)
Emerging Middle Class: The big difference between gold's current run and the bull market of the 1970's is the "economic footprint" of emerging market economies, most notably India and China, Holmes says. "Forty percent of the world's population believe in gold and give gold as gifts" -- and have the money to buy them in increasing numbers.
The Big Dumb Money: "All the pension funds, all the endowment [funds] aren't running into gold...yet," Holmes says, noting those investors "piled into" tech in 2000 and private equity funds in 2006. Meanwhile, European Central Banks have dramatically slowed their gold sales and could become buyers in the years ahead.
Alchemy vs. Reality: Gold skeptics often note that almost every ounce of gold ever mined remains in existence. That may be true, but Holmes says new supply is on the wane, suggesting it's "easier to invent a new technology" than find a 10 million ounce deposit. And if you were to discover such a bonanza, you'd have to incur huge infrastructure costs and meet rising regulatory hurdles to get the 'yellow metal' out of the ground.
Of course, you should question anything that looks like a "can't lose" investment - and bulls say gold wins whether the economy is hit by deflation or inflation. But gold has defied its skeptics for a decade and shows no sign of letting up now.
NASA and NSF-Funded Research Finds First Potentially Habitable Exoplanet (29/9/2010)
First "Goldilocks" Exoplanet Discovered by NASA-funded Researchers
A team of planet hunters led by astronomers at the University of California (UC), Santa Cruz and the Carnegie Institution of Washington has announced the discovery of a planet orbiting a nearby star, Gliese 581, at a distance that places it squarely in the middle of the star's "habitable zone." This would be the most Earth-like exoplanet and the first truly habitable one yet discovered. The research was supported by grants from NASA and the National Science Foundation. "Goldilocks" refers to an exoplanet whose temperatures are "not too cold, not too hot, but just right" to maintain water and support Earth-like life.

The International Forecaster September 2010 - Gold, Silver, Economy

It is interesting to watch Wall Street defy reality. This is a scene we’ve observed since the early 1960s, the effect of debt on the economy and the nation and in turn on its currency. The result of the profligacy over all those years is the biggest bull market in history in gold and silver. As we write gold is toying with $1,300 and silver with $21.50. Each day a new high is reached in spite of a pending options expiration and the perpetual market rigging and manipulation by the US government.
One of the things that astound us is that few professionals have seen this coming over the past 10-1/2 years, and even those that do believe do not think this is an earth-shaking event. What we are about to experience is an event that only occurs every 300 to 500 years. All we can imagine is that they have a very limited perspective of history and particularly economic and financial history.
