Dana Lyons joins me today to weigh the use of economic data vs market data when investing. Today is another example of economic data, the jobs number, that is causing market moves but not necessarily in the direction you would predict.

    People who do job estimates and earning estimates are wrong more often than weatherman saying it’s going to rain. The only two jobs I know where you get paid to be consistently wrong.

    Today Gary Savage called for a big correction in gold and silver, but after that he says gold will rise to 7K minimum, and maybe 10K.

      He might well be right but selling/re-buying physical is an expensive game especially with CGT exposure. As for hedging, I guess you can but that’s not really as easy or cheap as it sounds. I’m just going to stick with what I’ve got on physical, I have lightened up on gold miners though, not so much silver miners. JMHO

    If I could ride out a decline in gold from 1920 to 1050, I am sure I can handle a decline to 1750 or 1800. If I sell now I might miss the rocket ride up to 7K.
