ironstag8 said:Sure, they're visible—as long as you have enough power to run a monitor.
And they're easy to swap, provided there's actually someone left willing to take them.
The thing is, both the electricity and those buyers are going to become increasingly scarce.
lonehawk5 said:Looks like I'm about to see my 1 again. $761.00 😁
Maybe I'll actually help those exhausted bulls out this time...
dustyheron5 said:Don't be ridiculous🤣—you're essentially throwing money away by ignoring the unit price😍...and what will you do once two summers pass and you're left staring at zeros?😂
dustyheron5 said:Man, just add that extra thousand to the price😍........there are some new guys here who think you're playing games with them.......🤣
lonehawk5 said:Just dropped $761 on some shares... figured I'd give the bulls a little boost🙂
dustyheron5 said:Our colleague quiettrucker12 is quite the successful speculator—and when he's riding the death train, he certainly shouldn't be looking down...😁
dustyheron5 said:Don't mind lonehawk5—he's just joking around. He meant to ask how slim the chances are, not how high they are.😁
quiettrucker12 said:Here we go again—another perfect opportunity for the Dollar to tank and send gold screaming past $1,800. Either way, things can't stay stuck in this limbo forever; something has to give. Usually, market tops don't look quite like this, so I'd say there's still plenty of room for a move higher.
lonehawk5 said:It’s pretty easy to see things starting to slowly bleed out at this point... but hey... I'm not gonna sit here and play fortune teller😁
dustyheron5 said:Not everyone has the same amount of money; rather, the total volume of debt corresponds to the total level of claims... that is what I was referring to (I agree that physical cash is distributed very unevenly)
The middle class—specifically the less savvy portion of it—is in a very precarious position. I’m hearing that they are shifting away from hedonism toward pure survival and saving... if they can even manage that, given their lack of cash. Beyond that, they are trying to liquidate assets like homes and cars purchased during the market peak. I honestly believe they would drastically scale back the excess of previous years if they even had the option... but they don't. 😉
Regarding the gold price drop from 1900 to 1550, that is accurate, though it sits at 1770 now...
And even in a bull market, stock prices don't move in a straight line. The bottom line is that those who entered metals over the last decade are in the green, while those who went into equities are mostly in the red—at least in the American context; our view from here is a bit more nuanced.
