CNBC is saying QE could total $3 trillion over the next 12 months. If that doesn't sink the greenback,I don't know what will. That being said,gold just dropped $23/oz. Somebody is getting out big time. I am going to hold tight a bit lnger since I got my gold at $620 /oz.

Well, I'm certainly no expert, but the QE2 number is official. The FED is bying back 600 B as in Billion. I still think metals will rebound. In the after hours, gold is up $10 and silver is almost $25 again. Give it a day or so.

Alright so being new to this trading thing, answer this for me if you would :).
Does the price of collectibles, such as coins, stamps, antique bottles or hell, even beanie babies go up and down as the stock market? I mean, I understand that prices fluctuate - but based on what? Just demand, people needing money so they sell there collections? Or do stocks/metal prices affect my beloved small penny collection?

as far as metals go, yes. as far as other collectibles without intrinsic value, there are so many more factors it's mind boggling.

For your trivia quiz: Gold is the 19th most abundant element in the Earth's crust.

Lol, look at today's spot prices in the morning alone. Everyone who sold in the last week is going to look at next week in awe.

Could have sworn that I answered you KenKat, guess not. Thanks for the symbol and I've done some prelim stuff. Interesting, but I need the prospectus. Not enough info on line.
Also, gold, for the trivia buffs, is supposed to be 24 times less abundant that silver. I've always wondered why the ratio was so skewed. Ever since the dawn of the digital camera, silver sales have weakened. Although what a jump today; $1.06 so far.
Here's one for you; check out POLYONE; petrochemical co that is hiring like crazy and with exports up exponentially. Finally an American company with huge export potential. (Shhh, don't tell the administration....)

Carmykle,
I trade UYM often. It's a 2X leveraged index fund. It's not for the faint of heart though.
