    more correctly: we're in a deflationary panic. When said panic subsides, the market will react to the inflationary "medicine" being applied. Reply

    Long Gold and Silver: A Lifeline for Struggling Hedge Funds? [view article]
    Jeje, that already sounds like real money, how are we supposed to pay that back? how long is it gonna take, assuming that Government spending actually comes down and the financial markets stabilize around 2001 levels? and productivity rises back up and unemployment decreases and people's live savings were re-established and and and and and, I'm 46 and I think I'm not likely to see it Reply

    You had my attention until you decided to turn this into an internet advertisement of your newsletter.

    I think that Seeking Alpha should send you a bill.

    Recent FED bailout amounts:

    Temporary Bank Swaps: $620 Billion
    Term Auction Facility: $450 Billion
    Wachovia Sale: $270 Billion
    Discount Window: $262 Billion
    Fannie/Freddie: $200 Billion
    FED Balance Sheet Fix: $100 Billion
    AIG Loan: $85 Billion
    Money Market Guarantee: $50 Billion
    Bear Stearns Guarantee: $29 Billion
    Ford/GM Loans: $25 Billion
    -----------------
    Total: $2.091 Trillion

    Hey, what's another $2+ Trillion when you're already $10 Trillion in debt? I'm sure it won't be inflationary in the least. The dollar will certainly hold its value and foreigners won't EVER begin to rethink their use of the dollar as the bulk of their reserves.

    The dollar play isn't a flight to safety. Institutions have to pay off debts and such in dollars and are selling euros and buying dollars to do so. After this temporary period, the dollar will resume its fall. I have to admit I'm astonished at how far the dollar has risen. But today it has fallen drastically against the yen, and gold and silver have risen significantly as well (despite oil's fall). Everything is volatile in this market. One ought to avert his/her eyes and do nothing. Reply

    Affirmation is blissful. My thought which comes from a friend and money manager is DCA down and do not loose sight of a stock based on environment as opposed to bad stock itself. We are in it.. but there is a ray of sunshine in these great stocks with a yield.. as the price drops.. these stock with great cash holdings will only increase their yeild and become even better value stocks.. then one day they will return to a better growth stock again. Watch NUE.. I see a 4% yield, if it doesn't bounce out. Reply

    Make sure that you always have your Exit Strategy in place from the start. One that will constantly adjust itself to the stock / etf's behavior and market conditions. One that can help you achieve that goal of cutting losses while letting profits run. That's the way to successfully invest. www.smartstops.net Reply

    We could see silver touch the $10 dollar range. I would hedge in here all the way down to 10 if necessary. Reply

    The same approach you are suggesting on FCX could be taken with Penn West Energy Trust (NYSE:PWE) whose yield for now is near 18%.Not too long ago Morningstar put a fair market value of $37 per share on this well-managed, resource rich Canadian royalty trust. The key to my article is found in two facts: 1). Everybody seems afraid of everything right now (a.k.a.unbridled fear) and 2). Every step that the treasury dept., Congress, and the Fed takes to ease the credit tightness, increase liquidity and inflate our economy is inevitably bad for the value of the dollar. They are debasing the dollar's buying power over the medium-term, and you know what that usually means for things like precious metals. These are the realities, not the emotions or opinions of pundits.
    Thanks for your comments and for sharing your perspectives.

    FCX is a great buy here as are many other commodities--such as coal stocks, platinum, and many of the junior resource stocks. We are in a deflationary moment, but not a deflationary period. We're going into a very bad inflation with resources ultimately on their way up. The dollar is up right now due to technical issues of euro holders selling to obtain dollars for business reasons not fundamentals. Reply
