"When misguided public opinion honors what is despicable and despises what is honorable, punishes virtue and rewards vice, encourages what is harmful and discourages what is useful, applauds falsehood and smothers truth under indifference or insult, a nation turns its back on progress and can be restored only by the terrible lessons of catastrophe." … Frederic Bastiat


Evil talks about tolerance only when it’s weak. When it gains the upper hand, its vanity always requires the destruction of the good and the innocent, because the example of good and innocent lives is an ongoing witness against it. So it always has been. So it always will be. And America has no special immunity to becoming an enemy of its own founding beliefs about human freedom, human dignity, the limited power of the state, and the sovereignty of God. – Archbishop Chaput

    1. 1. First.

      2. Not sure whether an end of QE (if there is any that is) would make such a big difference. Still, the fundamentals and the debt problem would still be there.

    2. Wonder when PM stocks will follow the metals? I thought HUI and XAU would be performing better and reaching new highs with the move up in Gold and Silver???

      We're all waiting for the hedge funds to unwound their short miners position. Have faith...hold and BTFD.
