I think they are desperately trying to manage a coverup here. How on earth is the steel 'containment' vessel still intact. Where is it? Am I to beleive that this unit blew sky high upwards of 1500 ft. straight up into the air and left the steel core structure unharmed? I think this highly unlikely."<br /><br /><br />Read the link provided by Turdle among the first comments on this thread: http://morgsatlarge.wordpress.com/2011/03/13/why-i-am-not-worried-about-japans-nuclear-reactors/<br /><br />Also I doubt this was recorded from 30 miles away, and if so, then with high zoom factor. The reactor buildings are max. 100 feet tall and the smoke of the explosion of at reactor 3 sure doesn't seem to reach 1500ft up.<br /><br />Anyway, read the link.. I also read another link that says these reactors, or at least the outer containment is constructed to take a hit by a Boing 747 or similar.<br /><br />Also, 5% enriched uranium DOES NOT EXPLODE. If it were so easy to build a nuclear bomb, then why doesn't Iran have one yet, or all the other 3rd world countries that would love nothing more than get some thermonuclear revenge at Uncle Sam?Markushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05841477708608109602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034901630224544639.post-37518798019815914082011-03-14T10:48:13.087-04:002011-03-14T10:48:13.087-04:00"rthaler71 said...

Just about the question of frothy silver ...Watcher<br /><br />Just about the question of frothy silver and retesting lows. It seems to me that that is what just happened, basically. And that now we have come back through $36 so solidly, and the recovery on Friday was so strong, I think we are done retesting, and 35.80ish is the new low. If I had money left to invest, I would buy there. We had wondered about taking some profit last week, and then missed the low so didn't, and were realizing last night that we would have missed the chance to buy back in. But that is just me, and I am a poor trader because I am too much of a buy and hold person. But the physical stuff just keeps being a good choice. I ordered online from First Majestic, and felt at the time that $36 an ounce was a bit much, but it was worth it coming straight to my door. Now it is looking like a great price.Xtyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03938631207181740423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034901630224544639.post-90327211312244856532011-03-14T09:31:45.911-04:002011-03-14T09:31:45.911-04:00Paul - I guess your dog sensed our daylight saving...Paul - I guess your dog sensed our daylight saving nonsense.<br /><br />Here goes $36 again.

Either gold goes to 1775 by the end of March and react back to 1500 by June 13 OR gold goes sideways and retests its support at 1100 or there abouts by June 13.<br /><br />I like his education on what gold is telling the world.

This is my third att...@ Turd"er", Plunk,<br /><br />This is my third attempt to post a comment.<br />Here I go again:<br /><br /><br />@Turd"er",<br /><br />IMO, the biggest problem with the at the money puts is they will only make you money if you have a correction down from this price level. As silver goes up (as we both expect), the put becoms out of the money, and will eventually be a bad protection from those levels (say a correction from $50 to $40).<br /><br />So, if it becomes out of the money anyway, why not have it out of the money when you buy at dirt cheap prices.<br /><br />Second reason for (way) out of the money: SLV failure is a 0-1 event: it happens, or it doesn't. when it happens, you want very cheap out of the money options at as high a strike price as cheap goes. for example: jan 2012 $14 SLV puts last trade for 10 cents! For a mere $100, you buy 10 contracts, worth $14000 if SLV effectively goes to 0 within a year.<br /><br />Note though that I have no experience what happens to the options market when an ETF's trading halts. Maybe someone else could comment on that?wiskundehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08432190002164483915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034901630224544639.post-61984806188663194752011-03-14T09:18:15.377-04:002011-03-14T09:18:15.377-04:00@Eric...Catherine Austin Fitts on Gold Seek Radio ...@Eric...Catherine Austin Fitts on Gold Seek Radio said "Your house is not a trading sardine." lolRickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12689336038450859345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034901630224544639.post-77550454206001026522011-03-14T09:17:19.092-04:002011-03-14T09:17:19.092-04:00I'm sure we will see a big hit soon.
