Gold Benefits from U.S. Debt Monetization / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Ned_W_Schmidt
The world does not need a New World Money backed by government IOUs. We already have an ideal One World Money in the form of Gold. It satisfies fully all the requirements of money. And most important, it has clearly demonstrated durability as a store of value. Gold, however, has one failing that prevents it from it being adopted by the nations of the world as the One World Money. Politicians cannot “print” more of it with which to buy votes. Can anyone imagine a U.S. Congress denying itself the right to spend money? Read full article... Read full article...

By: David_Vaughn
Remember the story of Paul Revere?
He rode his horse through town shouting that the British were coming? That is basically what the web sites have been doing for about 20 years. But what did Paul do when the British eventually arrived in the street? At that point there was no use shouting any longer from his horse that the British were coming. Because at that point they had arrived.

Governments Printing Money Can't Make Money / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: The_Gold_Report
Jay Taylor, who shares the results of his investment research with subscribers to his widely read Gold, Energy & Technology Stocks weekly e-newsletter, has just added a weekly radio program to his array of tools investors can use to survive in these dark days on Wall Street and Main Street—maybe even thrive. It's called “Turning Hard Times into Good Times,” and aired for the first time on March 24. In this interview, he talks about the program's focus, and reiterates what he told The Gold Report readers in December—that gold stocks represent the best investment these days. Buying gold stocks may be riskier than holding bars or coins, but the upside potential of owning mining shares is commensurately that much greater as well. Jay also argues against the folly of thinking we can cure what ails us by running the printing presses faster and faster to pump more and more paper currency into the economy. Read full article...

Below is why you cannot expect such quiet times and such busy times that we saw in the past!

By: Money_and_Markets
Sean Broderick wrotes: Industrial commodities are bouncing off their bottoms and headed higher. What's driving this move?
Simply put: The Fed has cranked up the printing presses and is throwing hundreds of billions of dollars at anyone who looks like they might buy toxic debt. This is unsticking the credit market for the short-term. And it's also lighting a fire under equities and commodities around the world as traders and investors start to bet on a recovery.
