Short? Don’t be ridiculous. Sold half miners though, after 160% rally.

Up or down - can’t lose. #investing

This is the bought Bitcoin for $11 , sold it for $30 , 172% gain, im so smart, cant lose, school of investing.  Now watch the price sail away and you never buy in again because the price is "to high".

I like to use Google trends as a barometer of what is going on. Searching gold and silver shows decaying interest, search gold prices shows a small spike (nothing compared to March though) silver prices are showing a spike like that of March. This overall tells me that general interest has not hit mainstream and should have further to go (mania phase).

Good research!!

 

From what I have seen, even quite financially literate people, know nothing about gold.

Can't we at least keep it civil? No need for insults when we can just look at what happens in 3 months.

I'm just messing around.. I don't mean any offence.

I like @Killer Bunny the place has livened up since he's been back and he offers predictions /forecasts which very few people would .

Do you invest in anything other than pound sterling? You seem to be negative towards any asset that goes up against it

Not really but then i believe every asset and financial function of society is rigged. sure you can win and lose money but do i believe i am wiser than the next and it is a natural phenomenon if i did  NO.

Question about price rises:

 

If gold hit (just for example) $3000/oz, would you:

a) stop buying gold (or reduce buying considerably)

or

b) start buying more gold

 

I'd be less likely to buy. Higher prices mean a greater chance of my gold holding forming too large a proportion of my total investments. While it's quite high at the moment for me (15% or therabouts), $3k means it'll be over 20%.

I'm sure your not complaining ! 

Have you sold any or just holding long term like myself?

Well, I was poorer back then, so I couldn't get much. I also thought buttcoins were a steal at £700, but didn't have the cash for them then either.

I feel quite sick, because although the price of some of my stuff is going up, it means that things generally are getting worse ?

Schiff makes the same point in his latest podcast:

or c) Ho's, coke & Vegas ?

If you buy in around $3,000 it  might be more about wealth preservation than any potential higher capital gains.

I'd be content if the new floor was £2,500.... but I think it might end up higher so I intend to keep buying the dips... When they eventually arrive...

Fine and what will you do if you’re wrong and I’m right given you laughed at me? Rude.

If Gold takes out 3000US next year, strongly, it will be bubble and you could expect 7-10k by H1 22.

I told all of you 13 (or so) years ago that these days would come.

So.

Now that we took $2,000, here are the next stops:

Gold awakens.

-- >

$5,000

Then the bond market starts "diversifying" into gold = putting Niagara Falls through your garden hose,  thus leading to final stop:

Doesn't feel like $2000 was a significant price point for the market, at least in the short term.

Be interesting to see where this runs out of steam.

I think the market is looking for much rounder numbers here: $5,000, $10,000, ... you get the picture.
