    Up she goes!

    Its interesting how much attention you can pay to spot prices when you have no intention of selling in the near future...

    Yep Blockhead..It makes you think doesn't it...Could well see silver at $40 Au and $50US. AUSTRALIAN $1.50?

    If the US$ strengthens, silver prices could drop and we could well see parity in silver terms.

    $39oz both currencies .

    i was just reflecting that the exact same economic conditions that are causing silver spot to rise are also causing the aud to the strongest in it's history. the more both go up the more we stay in the same place. Errol was saying if we hit 1.50, silver could crack that magic $50 mark and we'd still be in the same place.

    Thats what kinda happened to the Gold holders in AUD in the last 6 months or so.
    As spot gold in USD was getting higher, the AUD vs USD was getting higher as well thereby 'neutralising' any gains in AUD.

    At the moment Australia is travelling Ok but if SHTF we will be affected, there is no way we are not going to suffer one way or another, then our dollar will weaken and the Australian gold price could sky-rocket! :p

    You never know but this next month could be the last chance to buy gold below $1500 AUD - it just 'feels' like that to me - am I being too optimistic?

    I think that people born in Oz are close to the luckiest people in the world, and having an extended opportunity to add to Au and Ag positions at reduced cost in the present economic world underlines just how lucky we can be. She says nervously eyeing China.
