    Gold is worth closer to $1700.00 USD

    Gold is doing something it’s only done twice in the past decade

    Gold may be worth more than what traders have decided is the spot price.

    There’s a correlation between gold price changes and the rate at which central banks bought assets to expand their balance sheets, according to Deutsche Bank’s Michael Hsueh and Grant Sporre.

    And the pace of balance-sheet expansion — by 300% since 2005, according to the analysts — indicates that gold could be worth more.

    They wrote in a note on Friday:

    “Let us be clear; we are not saying that gold will trade up to USD1,700/oz in the near term, but when viewed against the aggregated balance sheet of the ‘big four’ global central banks (the Fed, ECB, BoJ and PBoC) the argument can be made if we view gold as a currency, the metal is worth closer to USD1,700/oz, versus the spot price of USD1,326/oz.”

    Weiner’s wife Huma Abedin is finally leaving their marriage after he got caught again sexting, where do these people earn their money, why in The Government of course, a real employer would have fired them long ago. Just ask Donald Trump! DT

        Hello Propane, life is a beach. (Missing the wild surf) Haiti is old news. The issue of FRAUD by the Clinton Foundation is A New Thought.

          Aug 29, 2016 29:21 PM

          Clinton Foundation could be facing State prosecution, accounting short comings ,

            Aug 29, 2016 29:24 PM

            Donors, like Bill Gates, and other heavy weights ,might have some accounting issues

            Hello Jerry,
            Got it re: the Foundation. I didn’t get that bit in the first place.
            Cheers,

            Propane….
            Sorry for the confusion,…I was trying to tie politics and mining together ,so Cory would not get excited. 🙂

        Aug 29, 2016 29:50 PM

        No, but I will. .

          Aug 29, 2016 29:08 PM

          The Clinton’s are bad news ,the paper tail is all there, in plain view.

            Aug 30, 2016 30:40 AM

            Forgot the …r…trail

        Aug 29, 2016 29:05 PM

        Marty , Gina is a troll. Her comments are a joke to anyone who has done their homework.

          Aug 29, 2016 29:12 PM

          Markedtofuture…not Marty…sorry

            Aug 29, 2016 29:38 PM

            Greg Hunter was trying to convince he-she ( Gina- Weiner?) to get an interview with HC to dispute the charges. They say this stuff doesn’t effect the markets? It may be time to go long OFFICIAL PARDON rubber stamp makers.

            That Greg Collins comment was classic. If you click on his name it goes to http://msfraud.org/

            Aug 30, 2016 30:34 AM

            Ditto on rubber stamp and Collins classic comment.

            Aug 30, 2016 30:36 AM

            I see Rev Andy got a comment in, Good work Andy

    I would not be so anxious for a deeper gold price correction, given that interest rates declined against commodity prices today. As for $VIX related ETFs, I found that using a log scale chart to emphasize the down draft in these ETF prices, all of which have done miserably, you can make sense of the bearish price move and see the low. What you might anticipate is a miss in employment numbers Friday.

    It looks like we could be seeing the uranium bottom in the next 6-12 months. I’m going to be keeping an eye on this.

      Aug 30, 2016 30:32 AM

      People have been saying that on here for a few years 🙂

        Aug 30, 2016 30:46 AM

        When I look at my personal positions its currently a mixed bag for me in the Aussie uranium sector Bob.
        Several stocks are up (for me) 50+ & 86+%.
        But I have others down 17+ & 21+%.
        That said I’m adding occasionally.
        ….but maybe I’m a fool for doing so?
        Anyhoo Cheers.

    Movement into fertizilers today….POT, AGU. Both have reasonable P/Es.

    Aug 30, 2016 30:59 AM

    fertilizers

      Aug 30, 2016 30:04 AM

      I’m interested in both fertilizers and fertizilers…. the world needs both.

    Best P/E of the group is CF with a 5% yield.
    The ETF is SOIL.
    Another big one is MOS on the move.
