Like life, U can't truly appreciate UP without DOWN. They are a pair.

When the weak hands capitulate, U can only take pride in the fact that it's NOT U that's selling. U are buying if U aren't already all in.

On days like this, I take out the little note that I keep in my back pocket for just such "disasters"...It says, "Silver is going to $200+... Gold is going to $2000-5000"

MINIMUM!

Then my sub-conscious does the calculations...ECU has 1 billion ounces equiv...and will as a result, eventually be valued at 10% of $200 billion...and I smile at the size of my share holdings, and my preparedness! I have done my homework. The math is good.

It won't be next week, but it WILL happen. The drills WILL prove it ALL! The weak-handed people will want silver MORE once they've sold all their shares and the institutions have bought them up.

Short-term - VERY oversold.

Will bottom out this week...then short-term buying will light the intermediate term BUY. The shorts MUST cover at these PM to share price ratios. It is their last chance.

Live in the present, but know the future. UP.
