| Upcoming Turnaround in Mining Stocks |
| The price of no asset can move up or down in a straight line, so why should mining stocks be any different? They have been declining relentlessly for almost 2 weeks, erasing more than 10% of their value. Sharp? Definitely. Unsustainable? Perhaps. When will the turnaround take place? It depends.

If you'd like to read "Year of the POP", I'm sure you can guess where it can be found. ;D
At the Speakeasy, we discuss things like bullion, bitcoin, bubbles, banking, and much much more.

Consider the 30-year graphs for gold and silver. Both peaked in 1980, corrected for 20 years and bottomed in 2001.
Following 9-11, official U.S. national debt substantially increased, while the actions of the U.S. government, Federal Reserve, and commercial banks continually devalued the dollar. Bond markets extended their multi-decade bull run (yield decline) and stock markets are making all-time highs.

A little more than two years ago, I changed format to an NFF (not-for-free) blog in order to keep me enthused and engaged, and more importantly, to keep out the trolls. I wished FOA had done that rather than quitting, so that's how I view it. I have hundreds of subscribers, and when they quit, so will I. The Freegold Speakeasy now has 100 posts and 20,000 comments.

| Gold and Silver Bullion Coins See Sales “Explosion” In UK On “Wave Of Political Turmoil” |

In a warehouse a dozen miles to the northwest of Cardiff, the Royal Mint is running its machines through the night to keep up with demand for one of the big beneficiaries of the last year’s political turmoil – gold and silver bullion.
Gold Sovereigns

| Those attacks on gold aren't made by Adam Hamilton's mere 'speculators' |
| Every day it seems that the manipulation of the monetary metals markets can't get any more obvious, and every day it does. But at least the manipulation is starting to aggravate certain mining stock touts who have paid little heed to it.
This week one of those touts, Adam Hamilton of Zeal LLC, wholeheartedly acknowledged what he called "gold futures shorting attacks."

 Gold And Silver Stocks – The Bargain Of The Century |
| Buy high and sell low, that is the mantra of many stock market investors. When a stock or a market reaches a new high the average investor turns even more bullish. That is also the point when the media talk about it and it becomes headline news. This is now the situation for many stock markets worldwide. US, UK, and many European markets are now at all time highs. But the picture is not rosy everywhere.
