Is there any chance

That we could create a monthly thread for current events that MAY or MAY NOT effect the pm market? All current event type posts could go into that folder. Right now if you were an outsider and looked at the first page you might think that this is a SHTF Forum and not a PM forum. I hate censorship so I have no problem at all with the posts, but at the same time I would love to have it condensed in one folder. Just a thought. MJ

    I second. It seems lately that fewer and fewer threads are actually about PMs.

    Since PM prices move in reactionary fashion, I doubt PM strategies
    can be discussed without noting the sundry events that cause such
    movements.

    It is fashionable to think that there are "fundamentals and technicals"
    in play, but the fact is that events shape/influence those factors.

    I tend to agree. Although it might be much "cleaner" to pigeonhole such discussions into one thread, I'd be surprised if you could keep the causal factors from being discussed with the market reactions.

    It's like asking Frank to list all of his "blame the conservatives responses" in just one thread.image

    It's worth a shot if people think it's a good idea.

    Or maybe just convince him to limit his blog links to just one thread titled "Goingbroke's Daily News"

    Excellent observation and idea. There are just too many daily political and world events posts that have zero to do with PM's at the time. The main thread is rarely getting used so the need to somehow corral all this minutia is sorely needed.

    Well, there are a lot of things in play when it comes to economics and the like. Economics are intricately tied to politics, nothing can be done about that. Over the years, we have weaved across the yellow line with our postings but we really need to start driving by the rules. Current events are moving fast now and many events will have considerable impact on what was and what will be. It's gonna be gettin' a lot more dicey real quick so let's keep this little piece of heaven to ourselves and not dilute it with stuff other than PM/economics/money/coins and just leave it at that. This is not, nor was it ever, intended as a political op-ed forum or a watch forum or any of those side topics that however obliquely, do affect PM and economics.

    We are consevatives, liberals, don't give a flip's, beer bait and ammo, champaigne on the Rhine, kind of guys/gals, there's a lot of different folk here. The one thing that unites us is gold, silver, economic news and coins and, of course, metal porn. If we need a separate thread to talk about fundamentals and sociopoliticoeconomic thingies then I would support that. As a side benefit, we would likely attract fewer drive-by trolls, flippers, bozos, and whatnots if we stayed on topic.
