Precious Metals' Market

The speculators have not gotten out of the PM market. They continue to manipulate the market making approximately five percent with each run-up and run-down, which they do at least once a month. Five times twelve or more is a nice annual profit at the expense of the suckers and the naive.

What a load of crap! You need to seek professional help.

I am a fiscal conservative who has advocated for tax increases and spending cuts to stabilize our economic situation.

The House Speaker will not be inviting me to DC anytime soon. LOL
Like the vast majority of Americans I voted for Obama because McCain seemed like Bush 3. He and Ms Bubble Head had no new ideas and they never met a war they did not want. They even talked about attacking Iran in the campaign to keep Israel happy. Frankly, I think that was a cause of our involvement in Gulf War I, Oil & Israel. How would we pay for that? Many of our NG guys here in Va have been deployed so often that they have more active duty time than many of the new RAs. Most are not reenlisting and that is an unfortunate development.
Something may be in the wind as you say, but we all better pray that violence is not part of it. Big government does have a way of dealing with that and they now have new tools like Bush's own Patriot act. Air your differences, use the process, and follow the law. That is what we had to do from 2000-2008!

Hey Steve, are you unable to twist every written into a left-wing rant? Last I checked, the lefties like money as much as the righties. Just keep the powder dry, because I have a feeling something's in the wind, and it's not the pot smoke coming from California, lol!

It would seem that $1100 is the magic number for Au bullion. It has hovered around that price for weeks. When it goes higher, somebody big sells. When it heads down, somebody big buys.
Health care has nothing to do with any of this. Bullion prices and loss of monetary value are not happening despite the talk-show host prognostications. It is just a Tea Party terror tactic like throwing bricks through windows. Just another tactic to scare the skittish public in a recession for political and financial gain.

Steve W.....like the vast majority of Americans (52% vs 48% is a VAST majority?) you voted for Obama because you got sucked into his snake-oil salesman b.s. and now we can all see that his Chicago brand of politics is just that.
You're a big crybaby and act like that girl in the movie "American Pie": Everything that happens takes you back to some crazy left liberal movement of 25-50 years ago. "One time, in band camp......" I know you were a soldier, stop soiling the great thing that that represents.

Obama is a nut job and he's stealing money from those who make $100k to lavish on bums that can't bother to get off the couch and find "the right job." Extending unemployment benefits for years, healthcare for everyone, mortgage relief for those who extended themselves too far. Credit card relief for anyone who can vote. Next will be handicapped placards for fat people so that they don't have to walk more than 25 feet to buy beer, cigs and candy.

Good Lord. Suck it up, there are legless people out there running marathons. There are people who can't move anything but their eyeballs writing history.
America was build on DOERS and not TAKERS. Be a DOER and not a TAKER.

I'm outta here for another 6 months. Holy cow. I remember why I left now.

Very intelligent reply. I am glad you attempted to refute the issues with which you had disagreement. LOL

Rhetoric without logic, as usual. Use facts and refute your opponent and avoid the weak man's tendency to call names when a sound counter argument cannot be found. As Harry Truman (he used to be a President) used to say "If you cannot take the heat, get out of the kitchen!"

Check out the gold prices from December to the present. Again, I think that this shows how the market is controlled to produce $1100 per ounce gold. I wonder why this is considered the magic number?

Platinum took more of a bubble dive. It went down after a too fast run up, just about the same time McCain said the economy was sound. If my memory serves me correctly, it was below gold for about a week or two. It has recovered quite a bit, which the economy hasn't. When platinum was at it's high's jewelers reported that women wanted platinum wedding bands not gold, go figure.
