It’s not all Gold

_____________________

I know I’ve been waxing poetic about the bounties of raw commodity gold and silver plays, and gosh knows AGQ, MVG, AG, EXK and SLW all performed mightily today, as did ANV and IVN on the gold side (among many others).  However,  I would counsel you also that there’s a whole wide word out there from which to choose.   Make no mistake, the European crisis is not going to be over with the waving of a magic juju stick that makes every price legitimate and no bank under pressure for insolvency.  Call it what you might, but this bailout is simply kicking the can down the considerably strung out road by tossing more money at poor Greek monkey grinders who will only convert it to a lamp shade or a fancy brooch.

That means inflation.

That means all commodities will be in play.  Let’s have some fun, shall we?  Indulge me.   Old favorite (and Jacksonian) beat down TCK was roaring like a Bengal tiger caught in an escalator, up over 10%.   TC — the molybdenum favorite and also Jacksonian was up 7.25%, and even my favorite WNR was fully erect today, adding a cool 9.5%.

But here’s that long developing carbon play I threw at you some months back — CCC.  Remember that monthly chart?  The one that showed that neat consolidating triangle?   Well, faith and begorrah, that triangle is still intact and still consolidating (much like AUY in the recent past).   And given that there are two days left in October, we might even have the pleasure of an actual breakout of some significance here:

Two days for a paradigm shift possibility.  Is that too long to wait?   I wouldn’t.

PS — I have another favorite PM play that has a beautiful monthly chart as well.  Perhaps I’ll share tomorrow sometime if you are pleasant.

 

Best to you all.

    A few things are on my mind right now. First, the debt ceiling issue is about to become the big economic news story again.

    Our politicians will not agree to anything, and whatever happens it will be inflationary rather than deflationary.

    TLT hit a double top last week, and I think we now start seeing a preview of our hyperinflationary future.

    The second issue that I have been thinking about surrounds the Argentina forcing mining companies to repatriate their profits. We are going to see more and more of this, and the PM Miners are going to feel the effects.

    So, I am looking to get into AGQ in a big way next month.

      Why wait til next month?

      I think you are misunderstanding the Argentinian problem, fwiw. It’s not the same thing as nationalization. They can still send $$ to their owners.

      Or pesos or whatever.

      I was hoping to see Jake’s PM chart. My attempt at humor.

      I read a couple of different articles yesterday alluding to a possible merger between EXK and GPL, so wondered if the chart might be for GPL. I realize it’s just speculation, but a merger between the two would make sense.

    How about trading the new 3X USLV Silver bull ETF? Talk about nuts.
