Michael
Z. Williamson flagged this one: Sean
Rakhimov's recent commentary on silver. The demand side
of the silver price equation is inexorable. I still strongly believe
that spot silver will
rise tremendously
in the next few years.

Larry
LaBorde, was quoted at 321Gold.com, on April 13th: "The
United States dollar index has dropped below 82 today. We would do
well to remember that the index is just a measure of the USD strength
in relation to other currencies. It is sort of like measuring the
USD with a rubber yardstick. While all currencies are racing to zero
the USD just got a little ahead of the others. Check out www.coinflation.com
and scroll down until you get to the current melt value of US coins. Notice
a nickel is now worth over 9 cents. It seems that the USD
has devalued faster than the US mint can cheapen its coins. A safe
investment today is to simply trade federal reserve notes for nickels
at your local bank and make an immediate profit of 80%. While some
people may remind you that it is illegal to melt US coinage, just
remember the pre-1965 silver coinage. They do not have to be melted
to be worth more than their face value. It will not be long before
this little bargain disappears. Take advantage of this easy money
while you can. It is just one more example of how fast the USD is
devaluing before our eyes."
