LOL...sorry. I'm struggling with this now, especially with the inflation/money supply vs deflation/recessionary forces battle.
On the one hand the increased money supply fuels inflation and on the other hand a recession normally creates deflation, and we have both at work here in a big way.
Throw in an incredibly important election which will take the country in one of two hugely different directions and you have a real enigma.
I'm starting to think maybe everybody's heads will just explode and there won't be anybody left to trade anyway. LOL
I bought 150 ounces of silver at $10.33 and it's been moving up slowly again ever since so I guess I'm happy about that, but I've reached a point again where reading this is getting difficult.
Just gonna' have to wait until the numbers start coming out this week and try to tell which direction if any is going to win and dominate.
I really can't imagine the Dow breaking 10k by any significant margin though, with the possible exception of a headfake rally on Paulson's statement tomorrow, which IMO is already baked in but will draw a quick spike anyway no doubt.
You know,...it's entirely possible that we'll stabilize somewhere very near where we are now with the opposing forces reaching some sort of balance and volatility dropping to almost non-existent soon.
What that would mean is that it's probably already time to go ahead with the divy stocks now or at least very soon as it will become obvious to many that that'll be the only place to make ANY money fairly quickly I would think.
I may start dabbling in the divy stocks a lot sooner than I originally had planned.
