United States Decaying From Within! Stocks, Gold and Dollar Outlook

"What happened most recently in Cyprus is a coming attraction to what will happen to your IRA’s and deposits in American banks once people realize what a house of cards they are. Meanwhile these select few are out there buying all the gold, silver, available farm land and any other tangible, useful asset they can get their hands on because they know what’s coming."

At first glance, I thought it read, “God is on a tear today.”

Wouldn’t that be nice.

Looks like somebody needed lots of cash last week. Wonder what they plan (or planned) to use it for.

On the “financial sites” I love how they constantly try to blur the distinction between physical gold and GLD.

Here’s the live chart. It’s still back over 1400, but it’s down some from its earlier rise. It’s 1424.20 as I post this.

I saw a bumper sticker a while back that said "God is back, and BOY, is He mad!"

There metals owners, you’re welcome.

Copper is also kind of a precious metal being that it is in the same periodic table group as gold and silver and shares similar properties such as high electric conductivity. Plus often they get mined together because they are deposited together.
