Gold up another 1.4% to $1870. Now within striking distance of all time record of $1900 which is also probably the near term resistance.

1897.90
Going to buy some now, so here comes 1900.
Darn only pushed it up to 1898.50.
Anyone else want to contribute some?

The PP and Gold have performed above any of my expectations.
I stopped tracking Golds performance after loss harvesting to offset gains in other assets and switching between GLD/IAU but according to VG I now have a 92% gain LTD on my holdings
It feels great (and weird!) to have a portfolio that's UP a few percent after everything that happened in the world. What a year it's been so far...
Who knows what will kind of other 'unthinkable' things will happen the next few months? No idea, but at least I'm not worried about my portfolio!

That's one of the advantages of having a disaster-oriented portfolio. When things are crazy in the world is a good time to have big gains.

Wow this is a shock. It is also strange....since July 1, all the assets are up including long bonds. I keep thinking one of the shoes has to drop. Who knows which one it will be...and happily, it doesn't matter. Harry Browne, whereever you are, thank you!
Except of course if it's stocks, it will be poison to stock/bond portfolios like the one in my corporate retirement accounts. How I wish it allowed gold, or it would have been a PP (or GB) a long time ago.
Could you do something like Smiths "Goldsmith PP" ?
Eg: In retirement account 2:1 Bonds to Shares. Outside 25% Gold

Looks that way. I don't think we have a cake but we should be able to come up with something appropriate!

Gold is in the 20th century now! When I started the PP it was in the Medieval era.
Shit's bananas.

By the count of your posts it seems like you are merely re-activating the same one you've had?

I think there’s some metaphysical phenomenon that if we hit 2000, Craig and Medium Tex will briefly remanifest.

Correct Vinny.
My response was tongue in cheek as I use the username “buddtholomew” for other forums and accounts as well and it has always been available for use (so I am the one and only buddtholomew).
I did request a ban from this board and also Xan was gracious enough to re-enable the account at my request.
