Key events on the calendar this week that I think have the potential to affect the price of US$, Gold and the A$. * Note the time of the event is AEST. Week 19-24 August 2013 Monday 19th 09.50 - Japanese trade data for April - Imports / exports / trade balance. Important indicator of Japanese...

I often have a look at this forum and see the question raised "Why is the price of Silver spiking / dropping suddenly...or over a period of time". Then there are naturally a variety of answers provided from forum members ranging from possibly correct to outright paranoia. The future price...

I agree, the market is very thin of stock and anything that is well priced goes quick.

I've finally come to my senses. Libertarianism serves two key functions: - It is simply a vehicle for any wacko [be it extreme left or right or just plain physco] to espouse that their ideals are better than that upheld by current society. For example: Libertarian "A" says they want to...

Thanks for the clip, entertaining though a little too much along the fantasy / alarmist paradigm for me. It's a little like the Matrix concept, suggesting that we are slaves to our own ignorance. I do think that its a bit condescending to to suggest that people, especially in Australia, do...

Trew, you nailed it. the standard of health care, education and infrastructure provision, that we all take for granted here in Australia would probably be lost as 'collateral' damage in a Libertarian government structure. This would likely also have dire consequence to economic development...

Its the same story the world over - you'll get what you pay for. You should also remember that you are in their country and chances are that you will easily be out foxed by clever business operators whom make a living from the tourist dollar.

Well based on the current GSR that would indicate a leading fall of around $250 off the gold spot, taking it down to say U$1,500. That's a fairly bleak outlook for PMs looking over the fiscal cliff. Mr.G

Ainslie is your only decent option in the CBD. If you can handle the minor cost of postage Bullion Bourse are imo very reasonably priced. They are site sponsors so have a look in there. Mr.G

This is an issue with the way the USPS interprets Australia Post policy. Australia Post have a policy to not handle pm's - both domestic and international postal services. This policy has been communicated to the USPS whom inturn spout off that import pm to australia is prohibited. Which is...

Everybody appears to be ordering up big on snakes, based on what can be seen in snake pre order threads. My guess is the number of speculative "flippers" in the secondary market will be very high. My interpretation is that many of previous year's secondary market buyers are now trying to...

Tozak, I love this statement. You are so right - there is no easy money left in any investing class. Nothing substitutes hard work and knowledge. Know when to hold and know when to fold and get a clever business or high reward employment. Mr.G

That sux. I hope you have better luck with your next venture. But I don't think luck has anything to do with successful investing. Mr.G

I thought that the price would fall as major investors aim to reduce the value of their holdings / or realise the value of paper losses to offset gains made through out the year. that would probably be considered washing though wouldn't it?... Mr.G

I'm not too keen on the 'circulated' look of it. I think I'll wait till they come out with a proof edition. Mr.G

I hope you have also got a gym membership. That suitcase will weigh something like 40-50kg when its full. Mr.G

Thanks for the heads up spannermonkey. For others interested disucssion in this thread Shttp://forums.silverstackers.com/topic-23566-ebay-bargains-thread-page-3.html Mr.G

Hi SS's, Was just cruising the fee bay and noticed this sale of a PM gold 1kg bar for $41k !!!!! Item number 261030836175. Is this the best bargin of the day. PM buyback price for this item is $50K. Mr.G

I think the market will continue to push pm prices lower until there is a clearer understanding of the Greek effect. I think investors will continue to seek the perceived safety of $US. This increases the $US stength and results on downward pessure on pm prices as they become more expensive to...

Hi SBB, I'm not sure about this statement. The way I see it is that the weakening Euro creates a bull market for the US$, as currency traders / investors seek the 'perceived' safety of US cash reserves in response to PIGS issues. I see that PM's and the US$ hold a very strong converse...
