Yes I was around. Many seemed to be retired then except Winedoc or had home businesses back then. I wasn’t retired and was quite busy with life.
Yes FGC and Rambus and posters that have since passed away or not longer posts.
Not to get into too much why but FGC and Rambus were using up resources from Goldtent for a paid stock site, They split up.
FGC and Wanka split up into two different groups.
FGC site is still going and called goldtadise.com. I checked their site during Covid and they were really on it, the plandemic too so that’s good. Goldballons on there too who Wanka lodged off after getting a little too something can’t remember still posting about his travels. To each their own.
The crash of 08 changed optimism that it was going one way, up. Then all the speculation talk from outside sources that never happened. Etc Etc
Yes. This site was Goldtent before the Oasis, if I’m remembering correctly. Fullgoldcrown was involved, also if I’m remembering correctly. I’m sure there are a number of people here who can set the record straight; most are renegades from there, and almost all were renegades from Vronsky’s Gold-Eagle. Like I said, a long, rocky road.
Yes someone one can’t remember now, think his name was Don told me the ones at Gold Eagle that I didn’t read much at the time went to another site that was here when Wanka started it when it and told me about it but he doesn’t post here himself. He might read it though. I just watched it on and off for awhile before I decided to post. I was quite busy them plus short term position trading so not much time. Some people, many for that matter just want to trade or chart and trade,
I’m not a trader, and not looking to buy anything right now, but always interesting to watch.
And, yes, there were some good posters on Gold-Eagle. Too many to mention, and quite a few who found their way here. It’s been a long, rocky road.
Thanks for the replies.
I actually started picking up silver @ $5, so let’s say that silver is up 300% since 01′
I doubt silver has even kept up with inflation. PM’s, especially silver, have simply underperformed almost every other asset besides the USD. Same could be said about oil I suppose, although oil was what $12-15 a barrel back then? The difference is that the oil company stocks actually go up.
I see shitcoin is on the move again, 20% in two days. I sure hope the BRICS countries don’t back with crypto, we are so screwed if they do. Why on earth would Bitcoin all of a sudden rally. Who knows what?
It’s also clear that the USD is meaningless to the PM price.
I hope the Chinese are able to disrupt the paper markets. This is beyond ridiculous.
We could have bought almost any other asset and been up 10-20x. Blue chip stocks like MSFT, GOOG, geez, look at the price of Chipotle. The biggest lie that I hear all day long on Newsmax is that gold will protect us. Yes, it won’t go to zero, but plenty of the miners have.
I bet a few of them do that. Then they got one of the trading platforms to halt buys on a couple of stocks the hedges were shorting to insolvency like Game stop. They got them to hold buying at Robinhood but they could sell. They didn’t like being bankrupted themselves. Too bad Game stop and the Cinemas could call and halt the shorting by the hedges when things were going their way but I guess they don’t have bribed connections.
Just makes you wonder what else they do.
Seems like they should have some deep underwater transmitters or beacons plus away to lift them up out of the water with air gas or a really long cable.
I wouldn’t give much for their chances. It’s so sad, very possibly killed by wokeness.
Years ago I was able to buy junk silver in quantity for about $7.50 per ounce .
I sold it later (Bunkie Hunt era) for $22/oz. to a friend .
They found it was too complicated for people. Having to position the head for different ages or jaw thrusts for suspected neck injury’s or how many breaths per compression with one or two people and different kinda breaths per age.
So they’re just teaching them compressions hoping the air reserves if any will give them a few more minutes. Plus after COVID more people were probably scared to support a air way.
I couldn’t believe it. Apparently it’s so they get some kinda help where due to being too complicated or fear they’re gonna catch something and don’t do it at all.
So I guess the CEO isn’t gonna find some experienced middle aged white guys to man subs to search for them since they’re the only ones that can dive that deep and maybe rig something to the surface to bring them up. At those depths what I don’t know. Does the CEO think the same about the mechanical engineers too?
They’re hearing banging sounds every 30 minutes.
Too bad they don’t know Morris code. I wonder if the new woke training teaches it.
I guess they don’t have a rescue plan in place. Seems to me their screwing around, half hearted and it doesn’t look good. What a bunch of get woke quick idiots. I guess without a plan guess it’s easier to say they can’t find them.
Back in 2001 Gold bottomed at around $250/oz. It ran to a high around 2012-13 era over $1800. Then it bottomed out in 2016 at ($1,060 to $1944 today 83%). In fact, I posted here that it can’t get any lower and up it went.
Gold Postscript Document (mrci.com)
I have a chart of GLD with an overlay of SLV on the latest bottom ($14-$23 today 64%) of 1/1/16, and they are both up around 50%. But in reality, we can’t buy silver at spot. In that case Silve may have done better than gold since 1/1/16. BTW, Junk Silver coins are ($32/oz from $14 is 128%)
Silver Postscript Document (mrci.com)
Silver Eagles are $38 and up or 170% higher than $14 of 1/1/16
Maybe a bit early but it looked like a good time for selling for today anyways. It was only a small amount anyways and had dropped since. Days not over with though.
There was cheap gasoline available in the garage parking level under the office building , payable in old silver 100 BF coins . This was before the introduction of the Euro . I kept one of those coins and a corresponding 100 BF fiat bill .
After the Euro became legal tender , folks had to turn in their fiat for the new Euros , or after a certain date , the old fiat bills would have zero value .
I would show people the coin and the bill and tell them the coin would always have value whereas the bill now was worthless.
I have a good friend who has thousands in US dollars in cash .
Try as I might to convince him that physical PM’s are safer going forward , his experience with a certain nationally known coin dealer’s inflated ‘numismatic’ coin prices tells him that cash is safer – while he complains that food and restaurant prices are inflating out of control .
Inflation is just another name for dollar devaluation !
Re: RFK jr
He doesn’t seem to be on the same page as the WEF and other assorted scum. I hope he has a good security detail but even then …
I like his Ukraine peace views!
Is better than what we have, but he’s still a Democrat. There’s no way he’s going to go in and clean house like it needs to be cleaned. His climate crap is what he does for a living. I seriously doubt he’ll be wanting to drill for oil amicus energy independent. I guess I’d rather have him than any other Democrat because he does come from good stock.
Re Kennedy
His stance on the Ukraine war is spot on…says he would end it on day one…that we have provoked the Russkies, to keep the War Machine happy etc ….he sure doesn’t care who he pisses off…..his stance on Climate is all Hippy…..but would allow the mkt to select how power is produced….he has it that Green energy would win…
but looking at the 5 year history of silver , I see a modestly exponential trend .
My trend analysis software has been crippled by iOS ‘UPGRADES’ but just a finger sketch of rhe bottoms (yellow line) gives me encouragement :
The CEO of OceanGate, which is operating the missing Titanic tourist submarine, explains that the company didn’t want to hire any experienced “50 year old white guys” because they weren’t “inspirational.”
