Merry Christmas to all. I hope your year of collecting and trading has been full of fun and shininess. Take care and enjoy the joy of celebration.

Down she goes. Ouch.

I am looking at the S&P 500 trend this year and comparing this to the Oil price. They are saying very different things in my opinion. The oil price says the economy is slumping and there is no recovery. The stock market is saying that things are looking up and we will all be back to normal soon...

I know this will seem quite outrageous to some. Maybe that is my intent. I have been watching the price movements and news rhetoric combined with our own forum dialogue. I remember in 2008 when I was watching gold go down in the face of what I thought at the time was the beginning of the end...

Gold has risen well over the last trading session but volume of trades shown on goldprice.com suggest trading has nearly stopped. Thoughts?

Aussie dollar plummeting. Down 8% for the day on XE.com Currently at 0.5522

The Aussie has just dropped below 0.60 USD. Heading to something like 0.50 I suspect.

I have an passion for the good old 1966 50's. But I cant help wondering where these supposed millions of coins are. I really don't see that many traded considering just how many are supposed to be left. I think I remember reading a story sometime ago that many were taken to Asian countries. If...

Over the years I have seen many times where members support and protect each other in their pursuit and enjoyment of precious metals. This morning I noted a comment on one gold bar being traded. There is no presumption of wrong doing. Simply caution being stated for any member. Many thanks to...

Seems like a bad omen when large banks start saying this type of thing. Gold price could smash records at $2,000, says Citi. The price of gold could hit a record high of $2,000 an ounce within the next two years as US economic growth fades and the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates, according...

loving the direction this is taking

https://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2019-08-23/cash-crackdown-on-$50b-black-economy/11438692 I like the line below. I am sure people here could enlighten the writer and others who are in the dark on this point. “It's also unclear why there is such a strong reaction to the restriction on cash use.”
