Conclusion

There you have it. Who would have believed that 159 analysts would maintain that gold and by implication, silver, are likely to achieve such lofty levels as a result of the effects of our current financially troubled and volatile times? Their rationale is varied but each is sound in its own right.

If we are to put any credence whatsoever into the rationale presented by the above analysts then it seems prudent to seriously consider owning some physical gold and silver and/or the stocks and/or long-term warrants of those companies that mine these precious metals.

All Things Considered  – John’s Commentary

I send out this list at least once a year to remind subscribers that the consensus amongst the most informed is that the future trend for gold is still decidedly upward in price!

BE AWARE:  From here on out, things are going to get increasingly wild.  The waters ahead hold greater and greater volatility, testing the mettle of the most determined hard asset investor.  As with a rodeo bull ride, just hang on until the buzzer sounds before you get off.

How will you know when to sell?  Fortunately (or unfortunately), we have the recent experience of the dot.com and real estate bubbles.  I’ll let you know well in advance – so just stay tuned.

What to buy:  Consider favoring silver over gold.  Pre-1965 silver is a great bargain.
