As suspected, the GOLD PRICE backed off a little today before leaping that $940 hurdle. On Comex it closed down $4 at US$935.10. As long as it closes above $928, it's just noise. Look for a leap over US$940 tomorrow. Can US$1,000 gold be far behind?
The SILVER PRICE rose 2.7 cents to close at $13.23 on Comex. This is nice, sweet, but not meaningful. Silver must clear $13.80, soon, and I doubt not that it will.
Keep on buying silver & gold. Much higher prices coming soon. Get out of stocks and US Dollar denominated investments.
US DOLLAR INDEX kept on falling today, down another 21.6 basis points to 79.213. By now the Nice Government Men charged with manipulating the markets must be in a real bind. If they raise the dollar's value, it crashes stocks. If they lower the dollar's value, it sucks confidence away from the already wobbly dollar. What's a fascist apparatchik to do? Favour one for a while, and then the other. Right now it's stocks' turn. A close below 79 takes the dollar index down 200 or so basis points. Be watching.
STOCKS rose again today, the Dow by 95.61 to 8,711.82 and the S&P500 by 8 to 940.74. This will probably be the last party rebound rally I was expecting earlier in the year, and will run to 9,000 or 9,700. Wake up! This is y'all's last chance to sell stocks and put the proceeds into silver and gold. Better grab it.
For those who wondered but didn't write, a "shoat" is a young weaned pig, around here 25 - 80 lb.
