I think one of the most interesting things about this is the time frame of the bubble. Most bubble cycles I have seen take years to complete rather than two years.

Another thing is that prices are still double that of Jan 10', so you ahve to ask yourself was Silver seriously undervalued back then? Thanks to central planning it is difficult to value anything these days.

UK Bonds are in a bubble and about to Pop.

Silver at $30 in a bubble? LOL

If they continue to print money silver could be $3000 oz

Gold & Silver hold value

It depends how much they devalue the Pound.

Silver gains popularity among investors amid economy fears

Worries about the challenge of reviving the sluggish US economy and dealing with the Eurozone debt crisis have prompted nervous investors to find safe havens to put their money.

Regular readers are familiar with our monthly series showing the inexorable surge in Chinese gold imports. It is time for the November update, and it's a doozy: at 90.8 tons, this was the second highest gross import number of 2012, double the 47 tons imported in October (which many saw, incorrectly, as an indication of China's waning interest in the yellow metal), and brings the Year to Date total to a massive 720 tons of gold through November. If last year is any indication, the December total will be roughly the same amount, and will bring the total 2012 import amount to over 800 tons, double the 392.6 tons imported in 2011.

Indicatively, should the full year total import number indeed print in the 800 tons range, it will mean that in one year China, whose official reserve holdings are still a negligible 1054 (and realistically at least double, if not triple, this number), will have imported more gold than the official holdings of Japan, last pegged at 765.2 tons (and well more than the ECB's 502.1 tons).

Telegraph columnist Ambrose Evans-Pritchard writes:

"A new Gold Standard is being born. The world is moving step by step towards a de facto Gold Standard, without any meetings of G20 leaders to announce the idea or bless the project. Some readers will already have seen the GFMS Gold Survey for 2012 which reported that central banks around the world bought more bullion last year in terms of tonnage than at any time in almost half a century. They added a net 536 tonnes in 2012 as they diversified fresh reserves away from the four fiat suspects: dollar, euro, sterling, and yen. The Washington Accord, where Britain, Spain, Holland, South Africa, Switzerland, and others sold a chunk of their gold each year, already seems another era – the Gordon Brown era, you might call it. That was the illusionary period when investors thought the euro would take its place as the twin pillar of a new G2 condominium alongside the dollar. That hope has faded. Central bank holdings of euro bonds have fallen back to 26pc, where they were almost a decade ago."

Personally speaking, I am a little sceptical of this interpretation but there seems to be no denying that gold is getting more in the news right now.

I think every person would agree that politicians NEVER tell the unvarnished, full truth. Therefore, as always, we must judge them by what they do, not by what they say. Each Central Bank is moving towards a partial backing of their currency with Gold. Whether this is with a view to taking over as a (the?) new world reserve currency, as the Chinese seem to be doing, or if this is to protect their Central Bank holdings from fading into oblivion with their currencies, as the majority of Western democracies seem to be doing, the bottom line is that they are protecting themselves while denying the opportunity for their citizens to do the same.

I believe that all news sites (not MSM - they are utterly worthless, as they have clearly been told not to frighten the horses) are pointing to three aims for Central Banks:-

(1) To kick the can down the road, repeatedly, until some form of Black Swan Event overcomes their ability to do so.

(2) To accumulate Gold while their fiat currency is "worth" something, against the day when that will be all they have. It was an act of supreme treason against the people of this country to leave a note on the Treasury desk saying "Sorry, there's no money left". In former times, when justice was more swift and befitting the crime, to laugh about it saying it was a joke, would have been punished by sending the knights round with a red-hot poker immediately. I wish Her Majesty still retained that power.

(3) To prepare, without telling the people of this country, for an event which will be used to attempt to drive political and economic union as far down the road as possible when the Event comes, and to impose it by force, if they can. The American version of this will be the activation of the Patriot Act to its' fullest extent. EU citizens should be aware that the Lisbon Treaty allows the unelected EU Commission to bring back the death penalty for all countries within the EU, in the event of any turbulence from its' peoples. The Lisbon Treaty does not limit the offences for which the death penalty would apply.

The Chinese have seen this, and they are no fools. They are using these last few months (years?) to accumulate Gold as fast as possible while their dollar reserves are worth something. At least the Chinese, for all their autocratic ways, have been encouraging their people to do the same, in order to bring as much metal within their borders as possible. I would encourage all of you to do the same, to the extent that your funds allow.

mwhahaha.........

This has nothing to do with gold. It should be a thread in the pm section, or a post in the silver thread.

Edit. Well thank you mods.

Quite how an element that the world was running out of, is in such a predicament, is a subject that the silver loons have not returned to.

If Neumeyer is so perturbed by paper silver, then how the hell is a silver producers strike going to get the price up. Shouldn't we have run out of silver by now????

Andrew Maguire, and the other usual suspects, had predicted that the LBMA, COMEX, Uncle Tom Cobbley and all, would default on deliveries. Instead, you can fill your boots as cheap as chips with the stuff.

It is just a production run issue - usually happens around this time of the year apparently.

I nearly posted this story after I saw it in the Daily Mail. As it seems to have been sourced from a gold supplier, I doubt its validity. How do you confirm from the source that the dealers version is true?

All the same, it makes a change from encouraging punters to buy because the imminent collapse of the "manipulators" scheming will send prices to the other side of the universe..._
