Weekend Reading: Riding the Roller Coaster

By Kevin

Source: Beating The Index

It’s been an interesting week so far! Gold and silver may have blown their top… for now. The U.S. Dollar is slowly gaining steam amidst more woes in Europe… it looks like the reserve currency is still kicking! Here are my posts of the week:

  • Gold, Revisited: Is $1500 Near? – In this post, I look at some of the reasons behind gold’s recent price moves, as well as where it may be going next.
  • Remembering the Fallen – I give my own personal thoughts and feelings on what Remembrance Day means for me.
