Silver and Gold Trump prediction

[daviscfad]

I want to make a bold prediction, that sometime while trump is in office, probably towards the end of his 4 years, we will see a very strong dollar with PM prices at the early 2000 levels.. I dont know why i feel this way, but just thought i would make that prediction.

Where do you see gold and silver prices?

Since we are no longer a leading manufacturing nation and we print our way out of debt which grows exponentially and can never be repaid by GDP which grows linearly, if the dollar is strong it isn't going to be because of Fed policy or the economy. It would instead be because other fiat currencies are failing where people incorrectly view the dollar as safe haven for a brief period of time before it follows suit due to counter party risk chains.

So we could see another fire sale if that happens, but it wouldn't make me jump for joy. I think Trump could do good things for our economy, but nobody can overcome a mathematical impossibility even though the result has been continually pushed out to the future since 1971 and could continue for as long as people are willing to accept usurious currency.

Spencer,
I have had the EXACT same sinking gut feeling the last to days.

I don't think that the dollar will actually be stronger, but I could see that the manipulation has fooled the markets and money into thinking that it is.

I mean I could see an implosion happen at any time. I really thought we would've had something more severe already sometime in the past 10 years. But it hasn't, and that is a testimony to the strong hands of those that manipulate the market.

Fact is, for an indefinite sustained 'support' of the dollar, I have too much into PM's. I mean, it has been great, in that I have been disciplined and not wasteful with my money.

But if I had been putting my money to use, in rental property, or some other active investment over the last 10 years, I would be in much better shape right now.

I wish I could, but I am too paranoid, to go ALL OUT of PMs.
Though, again, my gut feeling is that they will under perform over the next 4 years.

Good insurance? Yes. But insurance is expensive!!!

If we have cheap PM's for the next four years... that would just be dandy! I'll stack till I'm seventy... and then stack some more

We sure won't have social security or pensions by then.
