-0.533 or -0.7% Today's question is, why did the PLATINUM PRICE drop 3.9% on a
day that the Silver Price rose 4.2%? Those contradictions unappreciated can come
back to leave you puking in the wastebasket. Been cogitating, and am beginning
to conclude that markets did --after an initial misapprehension -- react
properly to raising the debt ceiling and the Greek bailout. What do both events
promise, nay, guarantee? Much more inflation. What will inflation do to stocks?
Wreck them. What will inflation do to silver and gold? Drive them wild. I reckon
logic sometimes triumphs, even if it takes a few days. The Gold Price reached
another new all-time high today, touching intraday $1,675 and closing the doors
at Comex up $21.50 to $1,663.40. GOLD has reached the top of its trading channel
so will probably bounce off that and correct a few days. Yet it will return to
batter at the ceiling again. Point and Figure chart gives a $2,060 (Two thousand
Sixty U.S. dollars) target. The Silver Price is nearing the top of its long term
trading channel which it will strike about 4350c. Today it gained 4.2% or 166.6c
to end its day on Comex at 4174.7c. Merciful heavens! Probably a little
correction will ensue with silver, too, having run up two dollars in two days.
New support is now 4100c. New resistance 4200c. Any breakout thru the top
trading channels, long standing trends like these, leads to an explosion. You
literally have to double the channel when that happens. A little more likely
here is at least a temporary rebound downward off those lines, even if silver
and gold intend to penetrate them soon. A Gold Price close above $1,675 would
whisper that some huge crisis is brewing behind the scenes, huge on the scale of
fall 2008. You will make a big mistake waiting to buy silver or gold. Huge. Yes,
we may see a sizeable correction, but we have entered the wild stage of a bull
market. Y'all can't even imagine how much wilder it will get. Stocks recovered
just enough to pull their tattered rags about their naked, bruised body and hide
their shame. Raggedy, raggedy day for stocks, most of it spent underwater,
slapped back when they tried to rally, then eeking out a close 29.82 points
higher or 1/4 of 1% at 11,896.44. Way down below 10,700 has a target painted on
it. Maybe lower. S&P 500 today gained 6.29 points or 1/2 of 1% to close at
1,260.34. If you are one of those procrastinating putter-offers still clutching
the delusion of a come-back to your breast, now would be a good time to drop the
delusion, stamp on its face with your brogans, sell those stocks, and get out of
harm's way. Stocks -- to the investment question of, "How do you feel today?"
they are the answer, "Flu, food poisoning, and chiggers." US DOLLAR INDEX fell
thru 74 a bit -- down 53.3 basis points to 73.98 -- but remains in this
protracted bottoming process. Won't resume its downward progress for a while.
Euro rose today to close at 1.4322, up 0.91% and thru its 20 and 50 dmas. I'd
buy shares in a lottery ticket before I'd buy euros. Japanese NGM are trying to
edge the yen down off its uppity new high. Argentum et aurum comparenda sunt --

confusion, please remember that the comments above have a very short time
horizon. Always invest with the primary trend. Gold's primary trend is up,
targeting at least $3,130.00; silver's primary is up targeting 16:1 gold/silver
ratio or $195.66; stocks' primary trend is down, targeting Dow under 2,900 and
worth only one ounce of gold; US$ or US$-denominated assets, primary trend down;
real estate in a bubble, primary trend way down. Whenever I write "Stay out of
stocks" readers inevitably ask, "Do you mean precious metals mining stocks,
too?" No, I don't. Be advised and warned: Do NOT use these commentaries to trade
futures contracts. I don't intend them for that or write them with that outlook.
I write them for long-term investors in physical metals. Take them as
entertainment, but not as a timing service for futures.
