Unfortunately, the record highs that have been recorded over these past few years have not had a positive effect on jobs, manufacturing, retail sales, or just about any other economic indicator that the economy is moving in a favorable direction. And right now, the fear is that the markets are just about "topped out". When, not if, this end-game with the Fed does begin to unwind, it will happen fast. The money will run away from the stock investments seeking safety somewhere. Those heavily leveraged in the markets will not simply watch their investments as they begin dropping like boulders.....they will sell as fast as they can. But who will be buying??? PM's are simply an insurance hedge used by even the largest banks to guard against total capitulation. But what of the common working man? What can he do to sustain his family when his dollars become worth half of what they were? A small stash of silver or gold eagles as a hedge would do wonders to help offset the loss of the purchasing power of the dollars he does have. You have a choice right now....an affordable one that could make all the difference for you and your family to get thru when the sh*%t hits the fan. This lunacy of the Fed cannot and will not end well.....the bubbles will burst and stocks will tumble. And that's the day you will look in the mirror and wonder why you didn't heed the warning signs when you still had the chance. Don't take my word for it.....just do some investigating on your own. There's tons of information available for anyone who may be concerned. Again, good luck and God Bless.
