How do you know that blog is one of the best?

How long have you been reading it?

Can you tell us a little about where he is coming from with his views?

This blog is run by an employee of the Perth Mint. He is very rational when discussing the gold market and, as a producer of bullion, knows way more about the gold supply side story than just about anyone else I've read:

I wouldn't trade gold based on speculation, but this blog often has interesting counterpoints to rampant gold buggery I see all over the place.

MT- saying it is the "best" is all relative to one's frame of reference.  Personally I do not read any other gold related blogs other then "expected returns" however Harvey's blog gets into the daily drivers behind price movements.  Let me know what you think after reading it for awhile?

I would ignore anyone trying to say they know the drivers behind any market. The decisions in the market, barring some obvious major world event, are just a guess. But even if he were right, it does you no good because it still can't predict the future. This stuff will just stress you out.
