Silver Getting Volatile

Silver has jumped in the last 10 days to new 31 year highs of $34 and change. Today after a gentle downward trend the bottom fell out and spot price is currently at $32 an ounce. We should be excited because although this bearish move means a loss of $1.50 on the day it also shows volatility. As silver pushes further in it's bull market volatility will surely increase.

Mubarak is Ousted, the People Win!

In a startling development Mubarak who appeared so very stubborn in refusing to step aside has finally accepted the inevitable! The people of Egypt have prevailed and this is just the beginning of what will be a world wide revolution as people unite against soaring food prices and a widening gap between the rich and the poor! The price of silver today closed below $30/oz so get out there and get physical!!!!

Egyptians Won't Back Down

Egypt Update

Protests are being staged in Tahrir Square today in Egypt despite the Mubarak regimes effort to compromise. Todays protests are the largest since they began on the 25th of January. I beleive that the Governments attempts at appeasement will prove futile because as they forfeit more and more the protestors gain confidence that more change can occur. Because of this I beleive we can expect more protests of grerater size as the people get closer to acheiving there goals. Check the news article database for an article by the BBC. More to come.

Oh ya the price of silver is up 90 cents back into $30 territory!

Serbian Protests

In Belgrade today 55,000 protesters and opposition party supporters rallied in the streets demanding economic reform. They where angry with rising unemployment and low wages. Some say there where as many as 70,000 protesters wow! This is very interesting indeed because it is the first non Arab country to have mass protests like this since the Tunisian protests took place. Do not think for one minute that this social unrest is confined to the Arab world. It is not, this is a world wide movement with the economy at the root of all frustrations. Expect further protests in other countries to break out in the coming weeks and months. See the News Article Database for an article about these latest protests.  

Planets Anyone?

Inflation is starting to take hold. Also some interesting comparisons between the space program and Silver.
