Are precious metals really a good protection of wealth in a hyperinflationary and taxed regime? Does an "inflation tax" wipe out most of the gains one could stand to make by investing in precious metals while a currency collapses? Are additional strategies required to realize appropriate gains from metals speculation?

Kitco.com is a website that facilitates the buying and selling of precious metals such as silver, gold and even platinum. The exchange of precious metals is not usually on most people’s radars unless they’re buying jewelry. Yet it’s important to remember that the value of these raw materials extends far beyond their status. The Canadian company was founded in 1977 by Bart Kitner, initially operated from his apartment. Today Kitco has offices in Montreal and New York, as well as a significant Internet foot print.

If you want to dive into the precious metals world head first, and get a pretty decent inoculation against all the financial propaganda, The Keiser Report with Max Keiser is a pretty valuable resource. In fact, on list of the 25 Most Dangerous People in Finical Media (in a good way), Joshua Brown at the Huffington Post lists Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert (his fiancé and co-host) as #1.

Max Keiser makes things very difficult for the financial elites, primary by exposing them, and explaining their antics in a way that approaches layman’s terms.

To get to the bottom of the Silver Price Suppression fiasco we contacted Ron Hera, a close friend of the Silver Circle team. Ron is the founder of Hera Research, LLC, and the principal author of its newsletter. He’s an outspoken advocate of the free market, and Austrian economics. He holds a master’s degree from Stanford University and is a member of Mensa and of the Ludwig von Mises Institute. His articles provide deeply researched analysis to help investors in commodities and precious metals. So, of course we went to him for answers about silver price manipulation.

One of my friends recently got into a debate over monetary issues. It seems there’s a rather large number of US residents that are unaware of what makes money good or bad. To alleviate this, I’m going to list the properties any good currency should have. I’ll also compare 3 currencies to see how they measure up: the US Dollar (aka Federal Reserve Notes), precious metals (gold and silver), bitcoin.

Federal agents have launched parallel criminal and civil probes of JPMorgan Chase and its trading activity in the precious metals market, The Post has learned.

Most science fiction is silent on the issue of money. Usually characters swap nondescript digital “credits”. The currencies of the future must combine the stability of precious metals, and the fluidity of digital exchange.

This is BIG!

Andrew MacGuire, a bona fide UK Metals Trader has blown the whistle on the long suspected silver & gold market manipulation and fraud by proving to CFTC how it is done. CFTC stone walled him, however, Andrew has gone public and released his information, the fuse has been lit.

If you have not gotten silver yet, I urge you to consider obtaining it now before the price lid blows off.
