Dollar Bomb, Silver’s On

 Silver Surfer

Can you handle it?

___________________________

Not as well known a ditty as “Red sun at night, sailor’s delight,” but far more remunerative.  

First, my apologies for not being able to interact last night save by teeny tiny Crackberry screen, which after a day of meetings off-site (I am on the coast now), left my weary eyes strained.   I’ve never actually attempted to post from a hand-held device, save for comments, and I’m wondering if any of my fellow bloggers have. 

No matter, I’m here briefly to let you know we are at an inflection point, in case you haven’t noticed.  The dollar has broken some significant support levels at $82, and I think it’s next stop — and quickly there- will be $80.   I think old Ben has finally gone and done it and broken the bank.  Your only respite will be equities an precious metals in the near term.   For the long term it will be only the latter, I’m afraid. 

In the meantime, as it always seems to happen, I am enjoying “large phallused gains” in almost every category of my holdings, but none more so than the precious, and specifically silver and gold.   One of my correspondants was wondering about possibly putting on some more IAG exposure for the short term rebound.  Now would be that time, young chappo. 

Also, all the silver gods and dogs should move today and through this expansion as silver has easily crushed the $20 resistance mark and is now back on its way to all time highs.  I may take this opportunity to add some leverage to my holding through some DEC call action on SLW.  I may add also to some “permanent options” like EXK and GSS.

In short, the PM’s are like fat, slow blind juicy turkeys out there and you are armed with a blunderbuss on the third week of November.  Go forth pilgrim, and pacify.

    Bought another 3/4th of my original position. Probably should have bought another 10 times. This should run up to 19 anyway before consolidating . Then I will lighten up. Year end target is 24!

        Let’s hope (for his sake) he is at least 27 yrs old and you sired said son at the age of 20.

        It appears you are dangerously close to being kicked down an empty elevator shaft, no?

        I will feel safe in Northern.Cali– no way the Qu’aeda attacks its allies up there. They may want to piniwh Bloomberg for being insufficiently pussillanimous.

        Congrats.
        Don’t forget to get some Chicago style hot dogs or Vienna beef sandwiches while you are there.
        I am told that I was skipping down the aisle when my last got married and muttering something about “no more tuition bills, no more wedding bills.”

      I will hold those strike-dateless options, thank you and remind you that SLW was at less than $3 about 22 months ago.

    If these were ETFs which tracked an underlying, which would you rather buy?

    Good day

    Next stop for price of silver…$22. All aboard!

    (Disclaimer: there is zero credibility to this claim, unless it’s a bizarre superstition over the number 22 I have developed throughout a lifetime. Please do not make investing decisions based on my idiosyncrasies.)

    OEW did a nice piece on Platinum with some wave charts … here’s a link for those interested in the outcome for gold and platinum based on OEW theory.

    Tony sees platinum starting wave 5 up and expects it to be a lengthy one … as much as wave 3 and a possible triple by 2014.
