Or at what point does physical buying overcome naked short selling, otherwise known as a short squeeze?

It would seem my terrible choice of speculation is outdone only by my choice of transportation.

It is usually a negative sign when the average person is buying while a asset is making new highs.  What is it when the average person in Asia is buying when the price has decreased 35% off it's highs, and the average Westener is still selling? The West, speculators, are selling paper, (selling...

Those are physical gold sales.  Physical gold sales have not influenced gold prices in decades.  Is that changing?

Bank of America?s monthly survey of investors showed a dramatic rise in confidence in August, with a net 72pc expecting growth to accelerate over the next year. It is the highest in reading since 2009. Almost everybody expects bond yields to rise as deflation fears evaporate, with just 3pc still...

Don't think I got any specific advice.  I think I just watched my dad and listened to his answers. If I had to give advice to my daughters, I would tell them to ignore what anyone else is doing or not doing.  Forget being part of the herd or being a contrarian.  Invest in yourself and decide...

Well, it isn't the chart I wanted to post, but it is the same data.  I do not have the URL for the chart I was going to post, just the image itself on my desktop, but I found this one.  Thanks IH! Here is another that I found interesting.
