The GOLD and SILVER PRICE rally stands a long way from its end. My technical friend RL called today -- his gold price target is US$1,030 and his silver price target is $21.60. From here, that's quite reasonable.

Silver offers your best risk/reward ratio right now. Judging from the seasonal chart, you could see these prices by mid- or end-February.

Stocks most likely have bottomed, although there's a good chance they will re-visit their lows before a longer rally begins. If Balloon Ben & the Fed keep inflating even unto hyper-inflation, then stocks will keep rising, although they will also keep on losing value, faster & faster, against silver & gold. I'm as certain as I ever get that they will keep on inflating. Other less likely outcome is that stocks rally slightly, then crash through previous lows and continue to drop toward the earth's core.

'Tis impossible to judge value if you measure in US dollars. Like trying to shoot skeet off the end of a bass boat in a storm -- everything is changing. So you have to toss out thinking in dollars & start thinking in silver & gold. You also have to sell stocks as fast as you can for silver & gold (yes, that includes your IRA or 401k.)

Argentum et aurum comparenda sunt -- -- Gold and silver must be bought.
