    Nope. I do not smell it yet. I think your mind is playing tricks on you. image

    There might still be time for a short countdown.

    The question is is she blowing up on the pad or ready for the moon shot.

    I still think we will see another dip before it starts to move again. I welcome the dips. Wish I had batteries for the old crystal ball. image

    (Kitco News) -- Analysts with Barclays Capital look for gold prices to keep advancing, suggesting that the early-year retreat does not mean a shift of trend. A notional surplus in the market needs to be absorbed by investment demand; however, this appetite “appears far from tired,” Barclays says. “In our view, much of the new investment in gold is tied to a longer-term allocation centered on broader concerns of currency debasement, sovereign debt risk and medium-term inflation amid low interest rates, thus a burst of positive macro data is unlikely to turn gold’s fortune. Of course, this is not the first time gold prices have suffered from heavy profit-taking over the past year, and indeed such corrections have proved to be healthy and flushed out less-committed longs. The current correction has not been accompanied by a sufficient shift in the macro environment to warrant a jump into the bear camp; instead, we expect gold prices to venture further into unchartered territory, albeit at a slower pace, and set yet new highs in 2011.” An improved macro environment and higher interest rates could prompt a slowdown in investment demand, yet inflationary fears will provoke continued interest, Barclays says.

    Pitboss, are you speaking of the burnished?

    I took a quick look over at ebay and saw some 07/08w's (burnished) around 35-40ish... I think thats a 'bargain' considering what the bullion version is fetching.

    Is rocket fuel the same as JP-4 or JP-8? Or is rocket fuel a solid?

    I'm not really sure what rocket fuel smells like, but I did see The Bernanke carrying a can of kerosene around by the launch pad just the other day.........next to the fuel tanker with the leaking hose..........just outside the maintenance building where the guys smoke during breaks...........

    The space rubble uses solid rocket boosters and liquid rocket fuel for the main, but that consists of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.

    The fun stuff is used in the orbital control and reaction control engines. I wouldn't want to smell it.

    I also smell burnt cartridges and gunpowder from the shots being fired overhead, wafting in from the middle east.

    I smell victory for those that had the forsight to stack against all odds and suggestions from non-believers.

    Finally, I smell contentment. From here, it will rise, along with Gold goinbroke!

    Up $1.00 today.

    The higher it goes, the more we'll see 'dollar days' such as today.
