    Just remember Gold is over $49,000 Rubles per ounce. America is headed in the same direction. $100 trillion unfunded liability for the U.S. WAKE UP PEOPLE! Good Luck!....... Gotta go buy some more Gold and Silver.

    Real gold cannot be manipulated now.

    As expected gold is on downtrend. Falls in gold are quite steep,
  • MRD  •  1 month 2 days ago
    Gold sky high soon.

    A rising dollar could hamper miners also.
  • Alan  •  Cleveland, Ohio  •  23 days ago
    If the dollar goes up Gold could have trouble.

    Waiting for the wash out of those who got scared out of the gold.And just like last time gold will shoot up again.I think it will be very soon ! ..Any margin calls left.

    I'm shorting gold. Interest rates spiked today and the big banks all say they see the Gov't slowing the printing of money very soon. The charts indicate a classic "bubble" and the rush to get a piece of the easy money has flat lined. Buying gold at these prices is basically betting against the economy recovering. Regardless of your political affiliation.....always bet on the US economy recovering!

      Gold is correcting. It happens. It could drop all the way down to $1000/oz. and still be in a long term bullish trend. I just hope that you will be smart enough to recognize the opportunity before you if that happens.

      Shannon....if you wait long enough, any commodity will rise. How long are you willing to wait though? If I bought in the 80's I would have made money waiting for 2011......but I didn't want to wait 30+ years. Don't get into the gold bug......this has happened MANY times through history. In the end, the little folks get stuck with the bag of useless rocks in the end. SELL SELL SELL.

      There is only one difference........we didn't have a $100 trillion dollar unfunded liability then.......gotta go buy more Gold and Silver.

    One way to leverage an investment in gold is to invest in start-up junior mining companies such as Bonanza Goldfields - BONZ. They can yield substantial profits if you invest at the bottom.
    • Jonathan 1 month 21 days ago
      what other stocks are you looking into?
    • A Yahoo! User 4 days ago
      I constantly see people on these comments hyping up Bonanza Goldfields. Same old pump and dump.
  • A Yahoo! User  •  Boston, Massachusetts  •  2 months ago
    With improving stock market Gold prices are expected to go down further, No brainer.
    • Greg 1 month 18 days ago
      Improving stock market? Did I miss something?
  • A Yahoo! User  •  Boston, Massachusetts  •  2 months ago
    Is it the time to sell Gold before it down. History show a steep fall in Gold every time stock market rally!
  • Dave  •  2 months ago
    Wasn't gold supposed to be $2400 an ounce by last month according to "experts" last year?
    • Mike 1 month 7 days ago
      Yea, what's up with that?
    • MRD 1 month 2 days ago
      It will settle 2000.

    All of your comments are quite interesting, some even make sense. But the fact is, that no one can really know what is going to happen, as today we are experiencing; for the first time in our history, markets that are manipulated beyond reason for monetary gain, by a group of ruthless greedy crooks, who have absolutely no morals. I call these people, our Day Care Society, as they were dropped off and left in the care of people, who really didn't care about anything, other than being paid for watching them. Therefore they weren't taught fair play, concern for others, right from wrong. As long as these crooks are in charge of our government, wall street, large banks, and our courts, they will continue on until there is nothing left to steal. Then I guess slavery will be back. Some of the experts are calling for gold at $4500. and silver at $60. in 2012, and $12,000. $600. before the Bull is done. As I said earlier, no one really knows. I do know that as long as those in charge are allowed to circumvent our Constitution, calling it nothing but a #$%$ piece of paper, and are not being brought forth to answer for their crimes; things will not get better. Look at the recent Robo Sign Off Bill that Congress passed, which did nothing but allow the crooks to pay a pentence, walk free, and continue on with their scam against home owners and tax payers.

      You are looking in the wrong Direction. Everything is now geered to Obama;s Re-election. The Governments propoganda Machine led by Geithner Bernanke and of course Obama him self completelt disreguard the facts and \our watch dog media is only inbteresrted in Gingrish 20 year old extra marital affairs. You must read between the lines if you want the truth

      UNCOMMON COMMON S$ENSE

    If you bought gold at its high in 1980, you are STILL waiting for your breakeven point after inflation, which I thought gold was supposed to be a hedge against?
    But I'm sure the gold bugs will kick me in the teeth for pointing that out.
  • Craig Farrel  •  3 months ago
    It is the combination of Wall Street short selling gold stocks and buying hard bullion like the rest of the world. Only idiots think that the US dollar and the US are on solid footing. It is a ponzi scheme being continually manipulated by this admistration and the FED. Where pray tell are all of Barak's Top economic advisors? Romer..gone. Summers Gone..Christine Banks..gone. Goolsbie...gone..Next..Geitner gone. All firing up the jets and heading to their Keynsian paradice somewhere. Latest print by the BLS is pure #$%$ Americans soon to become divided even more. It is getting fun. All you who doubt this are burying your heads in the sand. Eventually the manipulation runs its course.

    India and China may begin to pay for Iranian oil using gold... Which means a drop in the USD and a move upwards in gold.
