Silver For The People - The Forums

So Ben opens his mouth and the metals crash ! ...this is what I don't really get!? I see here in the UK constant headlines form the euro zone. "Greece is fix"...the markets are up ...."Greece can still default"...the markets go down....
Are investors really this dumb ?! who are these people investing in pm's ??
Are they truly just short term speculators ?! surely if you've had the notion to invest in gold or silver you are doing so as a hedge against the future ....if so why dump your silver and gold now based on the "show" from the Fed? Things aren't fixed or on the mend...they are getting worse!

It deeply saddens me to see that Americans aren't voting for Ron Paul, he literally is your/our last hope of putting the global economy back on track...




I see the economy as being like turning the steering wheel of a giant oil tanker... the policy makers and central planners are doing their monthly adjustments which don't appear to do anything until the results filter out over the following months...but ultimately this ship is now on a set course and no amount of steering will help!

I see threads on here asking when to sell and how to sell etc... all I can say is if you are buying metals then the only option you have is to stay long. I strongly believe after seeing what happened again today, that we still have a couple of years of them playing their games!
and when you do finally decide to exit your silver (or gold) physical positions, try to find a way to exchange or trade your investment...

I will be buying land or a house, or even investing in something like this ... but like I say, I feel I have a few years to decide, on what to do with my oh so precious silver

thanks for reading

I hope you are right that we have a couple of years left to stack and prepare. How much longer can they kick the can? I'm not sure anyone knows, not even TPTB.

Well as i see it they are just playing who can delay default the longest ....... America, Europe or Asia..... when one of them drops the ball then the fun really begins, but hey one thing is for sure, We will all be left to tidy up after their party is over !!!

I was expecting another smack-down in the markets, but not quite to this extent. At first I was wondering if this was another "NetDania" chart anomaly... (kidding). For us stackers, it is a great buying opportunity! Sure glad that I am not in the paper markets. This is one market that I wouldn't want to play with at any cost. No natural flow and little realistic reaction.

I know considering that a 1% move in silver represents a $5k move !!!!! so today alone could have cost you a $31k loss for just one contract !!! ....its days like today that leverage must hurt lol
