Buffet vs. Gold: What’s Next, Soros vs. Indoor Plumbing?

Warren Buffett talks a lot about gold, and isn’t very kind to the “metal of kings.” But we suggest here he is missing the obvious nature of the true value of gold to society.

Exposing Silver Mythology, Part II

Judging by its own words, the CFTC apparently sees no need to actively “regulate” the silver market until silver inventories hit zero – and the entire market implodes.
