On bubbles





Remember all those companies taking out full-page ads in 2006 offering to pay top dollar for your McMansion?

Are you changing your tune on buying gold right now?

Au contraire- these companies want to BUY your gold, not sell it to you.

Gold won't be in a bubble until lots of people start putting a meaningful portion of their retirement funds in it. Seems to me the vast majority of people still have ZERO gold, which couldn't be said of tech stocks in 1999 or houses in 2006.
