I have never mentioned dates. I only point to severe global economic imbalances that will balance themselves in their own time. Gold is already telling us something is very wrong, and it will continue to do so until the imbalances reach an albeit painful equilibrium. It's not gloom and doom, it's just basic free market economics. We as consumers and as a country have gone on a credit binge, and soon it will be time to pay the piper. It's as simple as that. You can either acknoledge this fact and profit from it, or be the one of the millions left holding the bag. It's up to you.
