      Marc Faber Says Time to Buy Gold Exploration Stocks
      I like how your articles are short and to the point. I suspect Dr. Faber is right on the money, and on days like today there is no better time to get started.

      Opportunities Abound in Gold and International Assets
      Day two of the precious metals rally is now history. A pullback would be normal, but whether there is a day three ahead will be very telling. The US dollar needs a correction for a month or so. Best Wishes and Happy Thanksgiving to all.

      $3.5B Saudi Gold Deal Is Huge Compared with $6.5B Consumer Record
      On a day like Friday when Gold and Silver soared, it makes Peter's articles look quite prescient. Peter, please keep them coming, because as any fool knows, it's not only what you know but who you know that counts in this mad, mad, mad, mad, world.

      Are We in Deflation or Inflation?
      Thanks Gary. To me the heart of your article is in the statement, "The title of this article should actually be Deflation AND Inflation because that is what we currently have; deflationary destruction of credit/liquidity and global authorities pushing on that string. We were never going to get active inflation policy until a well rooted deflation impulse took hold. It is here, it is monetary and gold is outperforming, which is all the gold miner investment stance needs."

      Energy Investments Under Obama: Eye on Barclays Carbon ETN
      Nice work David. You said it all when you wrote"The best place to start our investigation is with a review of Obama’s “New Energy for America” plan. It’s a comprehensive document detailing the President-elect’s roadmap for energy independence." Keep bringing these uniques investment themes our way and thank you.

      Recessionary Equity Strategies: Still Going for Growth
      This was a very helpful analysis. Added to it would be an look at what the exchange specialists are accumulating when the markets correct and break down. Momentum would be added to your top stock picks if the "big boys" were also targeting them. Thanks again Marc for your thorough approach.

      I checked with a group of large precious metals dealers today. None of them had anything smaller than kilograms of gold and 1,000 ounce bars of silver. Supply shortages are world wide. Why is the US dollar soaring now during America's worst financial crisis ever? Check out the following video which is just one of several announcements on this topic which I've been hearing....
      video.google.com/video... and even if you have to copy and paste it, hear Roubini's latest speech and you'll know,

      Gold Liquidity Play a Setup?
      Sadly and in a perverse way, Brad's article is a distinct possibility in "the scheme of things" in this new financial world order that is emerging. I admire Brad for having the courage to even mention the possibilities. One big question for now is, "How long will it take for the potential short-squeeze to develop?" My guess, and it is only a guess, it will might take longer this time for a number of reasons. Maybe they can suppress the price of oil, gold and silver till after the inauguration if not longer. It wouldn't shock me at this point and we might see some sucker rallies in between and then more sickening waves of selling.

      Silver Linings in the Panic Selling and Madness
      The same approach you are suggesting on FCX could be taken with Penn West Energy Trust (NYSE:PWE) whose yield for now is near 18%.Not too long ago Morningstar put a fair market value of $37 per share on this well-managed, resource rich Canadian royalty trust. The key to my article is found in two facts: 1). Everybody seems afraid of everything right now (a.k.a.unbridled fear) and 2). Every step that the treasury dept., Congress, and the Fed takes to ease the credit tightness, increase liquidity and inflate our economy is inevitably bad for the value of the dollar. They are debasing the dollar's buying power over the medium-term, and you know what that usually means for things like precious metals. These are the realities, not the emotions or opinions of pundits.
      Thanks for your comments and for sharing your perspectives.

      Global Liquidity Crisis: What Now?
      What's your opinion on short-term deflation as a result of an imploding economy already in recession? I want to believe you are right about commodities if there is a concerted worldwide effort by central banks to lower interest rates and add lots of liquidity. Thanks for your article. May all this lead to a more civilized world with less corruption...I know...I'm dreaming again.
