If you are heavily into gold or darkside coins, you'll probably be happy that you are. Otherwise, be ready for a big downslide in the stock market tomorrow. Check out the financial reports on your favorite site.

    I'm not convinced that the bursting of a credit bubble and an unraveling financial infrastructure are good for gold or for coins. In the end, it's all deflationary.

  • Yep, big fall in the markets today followed by another bull market in X years time. Load up while there's blood on the streets imo.

    That's why I've been selling most of my coins. image
    The meaning of life ? I don't know but I am sure that coins have something to do with it.

    Andy, I agree with your comment in terms of long term concerns. The only thing that's good for gold and coin owners is short term here. The stock market will drop 5-10% today but gold will at least hold its value (granted, it's dropped 25% in the last month or two).

    I wonder how this upcoming trading session will affect the Heritage and Goldberg auctions...

    Totally agree. I feel like a kid in a candy store. Great market for picking up short-term flips and long-term blue chip holds.

    I think gold is the only play. It is up over $50 today. The sell off was bank manipulation and the rebound should be strong with the miners reducing output, and India jewelery demand going back up.image
