Wouldn't say that was a bad call Leo25. Was surprised we didn't get one last month. Either way, the AUD starting to correct on this news. Now lets see what the banker does...pitchfork wielding lynch mob are ready to roll

Thats a big call on RBA rates but maybe they will hold? unfortunately its FUBAR either direction. I'm more curious to see if a drop, then what percentage the banks will pass through? if they gauge 10-15 points (based on a 1/4 percent drop), then the media will start a monster hunt...if they pass...

Lower interest rates 'can' (based on the BS theory) stimulate an economy, but this also lowers the RBA bond rates (which shows Australia's economy is weakening and drops our currency value). The only way to attract larger (namely international) investment is to increase rates (higher bond rate...

"A frequent tactic used by domain hijackers is to use acquired personal information about the actual domain owner to impersonate them and persuade the domain registrar to modify the registration information..." Sure domain hacking is possible, but so is financial fraud and credit cards taken...

Reading up on sentiment,analysis and charts does suggest $1k to $2k is possible. Think the bottom is 4-6 months away then few years to next bull high. Around that time will re-check and likely sell some Ag to speculate in crypto's. Buying any asset in it's cyclic low is pretty safe bet although...

Depends on you view towards the US markets as seems investors will jump to the metals on a correction. So if you see S&P rallying then hold off buying more metal otherwise shop around for some low premium 999. You will know to stop buying once the new FOMO money flows into the space

My guess is any trading market is 60% TA and 40% sentiment. Main reason for heavier weight to TA is bot trading and used as a main indicator for large retail/inistuitional investors. TA might pick the trend but sentiment is always the underlying driver of the market (eg FOMO for crypto late 2017...

Agreed it held for 'a long' time but thats a fair bit more than 'a while' :) LOL . a 'while' for me would be a few weeks. So after a 12month bear down turn, it was probably 60/40 split (bear/bull) on its direction at $6k (personally was thinking to the upside so was wrong on that call). Things...

Yes, good bounce off the $100b and high support for low $3k BTC Might as well add my two satoshi's (and get flamed in the future) but still see a bear market trending downwards. Recent ~25% upswing has been repeated a few times in the last few months but then continues to a lower low and lower...

LOL, no not considering cannabis stocks, but do have some spec dollars to invest with any trend. I personally can't see the S&P hitting 3K but many others do...would prefer to sit this one out and pickup at a later stage. Might mean missed opportunity with a longer investment horizon, but the...

Though the current drop in cryptos is pretty daunting for average Joe, it's likely going to be the catalyst to clean up the sector. I'm sure there are many good projects working away in the background, but many of the ICO's have produced little to nothing in 12 months and now even claim cash...

Welcome to the forum Matt Good points raised all round but feel any investment should really take current value into consideration over storage inconvenience,cost for postage or other factors raised As a new stacker I would look strongly suggest looking at the GSR (Gold Silver Ratio) as its...

'It’s the latter that helps us crypto “fanbois” from drinking ourselves to death or watching re-runs of Days of Our Lives....' One thing I admire is the crypto humour and always love the crypto memes! lol

Shiney, point taken but given a universe without humans isn't likely we need to look on the other side :) Personally I do believe in intrinsic value, but you might be closer with subjective value. Do empathise with anyones dollar loss but use it as a learning experience. For example taking...

Spot price might certainly go lower but think its pretty much the bottom for buying physical metals. Post GFC saw $9/oz Ag (USD) but a 1kg bar here was $615ish (AUD). Issue was finding a seller. Most silver investors were underwater but happy to hold and buy more (if and when they could get it)...

No need to erase incorrect posts,opinions or bad calls. After all, you can only go on the best knowledge and strategy you see at the time. Personally, I've made three large 'bad calls' since 2009 with Cryptos,Australian property and silver but I'm still very confident on my strategy (wont...

"I sure wish I could fork my gold and silver stores the way that BitCoin gets forked. That would be cool." Would be cool but not if every other resource drops in symphony or concerns over your split. It's a far more intertwined market then I first realized.

Some really good points raise all round again. TreasureHunters extensive list would take pages with Shinny's replies the same. Still, they all are good points raised In defence, the argument for a store of value needs to be physical I think does stand up when it comes to money/currency. Be it...

You might find a hand poured bar to be difficult to sell at a later stage. After all, its not marked with a mint stamp, assay, purity, etc. To sell through a bullion dealer would likely be class 'scrap' and get around 90% of spot (as they will only pass it on to a refiner/mint). Secondary market...

Ok, makes sense and think you covered it well. If that situation did happened then it would be effectively a short term bump in the road
