PM market forecasts.

Having gone "stupid in" on PM's you can imagine that I spend considerable time reading on the subject. I seek out any and all opinions both for and against PM's. More often than not, I only visit most sites a few times. This could be because the site offers nothing new to me or I already access the same info in a favoured site. However, it is usually due to the signal to noise ratio being rather low.

Regulars here know that I rarely suggest or promote any other websites but about five weeks ago I came across a site that has me amazed. The signal to noise ratio was very high when I first started reading it. (near inception) It has dropped a bit because of the parabolic increase in site visits but the owner is building a new, forum style site and will have the ability to block, ban and dropkick the trolls. Currently the site is a blog with a comments section that fills up fast and furious.

You can read the mans "About Me" some distance down the page on the right side but I'll give you my take. He hides his real identity and goes by the handle of Turd Ferguson. Basically the Turd and many of his followers, (they call themselves Turdites or Turdlings but I prefer Nuggets) spend their time shorting paper gold & silver using the profits to buy physical. The Turd has the most astounding ability to call the market in advance that I have ever seen. He does not offer or provide investment advice but damn this guy is good. He also has a great sense of humour. He seems to have a pretty big bug in his ass with respect to Blythe Masters  and what he calls the Evil Empire or EE for short.

I will caution that it will take several weeks to catch on to all the lingo used in his posts but they are clearly and concisely written. (a skill I clearly lack) He posts about twice a day with occasional updates to posts and makes these charming little cartoon videos that he posts on YouTube. 

The site is called "Along the Watchtower". Please check it out for a few weeks and come back here and post your impressions.
