Jokes on the retail investorWe have no control over the market. From the daily news 3 months ago the world was running out of oil and it was going to $200 bbl now its at $78, silver down 20% today, Can$ down .04. Gold was up $30 now down $40. Copper tanks. Lots of empty houses foreclosures? Where did those people go? The grains have also tanked after there was supposed to be worldwide shortage. Base metals trading below thier cost of production. Basic economics says that at some point the prices go up or production stops. I heard it quoted that the world population is adding 75 million a year. Thats more than twice the population of Canada and not an unbelieveable amount considering the total world population. We live in a closed system on this planet....
