Gold is the poster boy for anti-fiat and the for alternative to all fiat. I believe it is the momentum traders holding up gold, anticipating a long term effort for CBs to re-buy the gold they gave away supporting the puppet masters.

Silver does not fit into the current day "reserve" discussions and is thus subject to other market forces. I still see silver as an anti fiat metal that will gain more traction as the problems with all fiat become more aand more widely recognized.

The $ can only be rising due to enron-esque > pirates of the carribean buying. This isn't investors or people looking for "safety". Its part of the scheme to keep the con going. The action in the US treasuries has demonstrated the tide shift. We will still see the waves as the tide goes out.

Our day will come. Just hope I am alive to see it!

Hangin on, waiting for karma.
