Exposing Silver Mythology, Part III

one cannot say the words “negative drivel” in connection with precious metals without immediately thinking of Kitco’s Jon Nadler – the man who has gone through a 10+ year bull market for gold without ever once stating that today was a good day to buy it.

Gold “Monetized” Honestly vs. Dishonestly

Market Correlation Data Proves Fed Inflation Paradigm Is Bunk
