Actually, the plan to fix the American economy is working just fine: The stock market is soaring to record heights, the US Dollar is gaining even more strength, and consumer confidence is surging, in advance of the holiday shopping season. And that's the point what's good news for the Dollar, is bad news for precious metals, and vice versa: bad news for the Dollar, is good news for precious metals. Experienced stackers understand this adverse relationship, and take advantage of the opportunities to buy weak silver with strong Dollars, knowing that nothing lasts forever, and that the equation will eventually turn around (as it always does).
I'll go along with that, Ouija. Especially knowing the "good economic news" is just a farce. Beans, Bullets and Shiny! Stack 'em high!
