    Is this a trick question?

    I don't know yet. ;)

    With high yield spreads increasing. No thank you. That looks more like sell on rips, then buy on dips.

    It's not like the shale producers cannot be replaced.

    Somebody will just buy up all the bankrupt companies, their leases, and their wells and keep pumping and keep drilling at an even lower break even point.

    Doesn't Oil have to be $65 a barrel before Frackers can make any profit?

    Depends on the producer and the basin.

    Coworker’s wife went to the bank today and cashed a checked and asked for all back in hundreds. The bank teller stated they were out of hundreds. I have heard people have been taking cash out of banks for the last couple of weeks.

    Withdrew a rather large sum yesterday just in case we start seeing a run on cash like we recently have with toilet paper, Lysol, butter and beans. They were not able to complete the transaction with all $100's but were able to finish it off with $50's. Didn't appear to be an issue not to mention they are now firing up the printing presses to max capacity.

    The whole worlds off its rocker, buy Gold™.

    Most of the branches in my area never have many hundreds. More likely to get a band of $20's than a stack of hundreds. I don't think I've ever seen a band of $100's in my branch unless someone ordered it.

    Me too, but I am getting ready to take out my shovel and grab all that cash to give to my stockbroker.

    Unfortunately, Stockbrokers do not take cash :o so I got to do a deposit and then wire it.

    Get a receipt. :) If I forget the location of my pile, some future soul can advertise it in a future auction as a discovered hoard.

    Just like the cost of mines to produce silver. It varies. And new mine production is only a portion of the silver produced each year. Much is produced from recovery, too.

    The government is about to print 2 trillion bucks out of thin air to mitigate the financial impacts of this crisis.

    I would not wanna be holding cash right now. Metals? Dandy.

    My best WAG is it will likely drop below $10; and gold will continue to take some hits but not as bad.

    But who knows? No way I know of to really predict, as this is a perfect storm taking place right now.

    WTI is at $22.50 that's probably killing a lot of asset classes.

    I know. Crazy. I was talking to someone about this yesterday. It's probably the best way to get physical at spot.

    No need to be shocked .

    Cash is king so anything worth something is being dumped.....especially those that are leveraged.

    I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
    I give away money. I collect money.
    I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

    and if enough people did it, it would not be spot for long (any Hunt brother types in the crowd?)

    Wouldn't a fifty do the job as well as a hundred?

    But should we sell the rip if we didn't buy the dip?

    You only lock in a loss when you sell. When in doubt, the best thing to do is nothing. Of course, when things are this bad, buying opportunities present themselves. The trick is finding them. I go back to the Hunt brothers in 1979/80. I wouldn't recommend buying silver and gold as an investment. Too much risk and uncertainty. I do have a complete ASE album and I bought each coin a year at a time. The dollar cost averaging worked out pretty well. As for gold, I put together a 12 piece type set and I have some nice double eagles.

    I recently saw an interview with a chairman of a local Federal Reserve Bank. He said we don't have to worry about pulling money out of the bank as the Fed can "just print more." So we won't run out of cash, it will just lose its buying power.
    By the way, when Katrina hit people weren't looking for small silver coin or gold coins, they were looking for bottled water.
