David Morgan Urges Investors to Obtain REAL Money outside the Banking System Immediately

In any market, even in a non-manipulated market, which there is probably none. The stock market, bond market, metals markets, futures markets, options… just about everything out there is geared and leveraged and pretty much manipulated by the trading algorithms, and other means, but regardless of that, all markets move up and down. Nothing goes straight up or straight down, and so there are periods where there's profit-taking, there's periods where there's consolidation, that type of thing. So regardless of manipulated or not, all markets ebb and flow.

So the metals markets are no different in that aspect. What we saw in the silver market was over the last two months' time frame, we peaked out in the spot month around the $20.50 area a couple times, and now we've dropped as far as about $18.50, so we've had about a $2 drop over the last couple of months. Specifically, the most recent drop's really over a one month period. I want to be correct on that.

The idea that I've had is similar to many others, and we're kind of overdue for correction as you stated, Mike. So this is actually a healthy thing. The metals stocks certainly have leveraged both directions, so anybody that's invested in the resource sector, particularly gold and silver stocks, is going to see a multiple percentage-wise on the drop. And some of these stocks actually gave us a clue that the consolidation or the correction was coming, because some of these sold off before the metals actually had started to sell off. What's interesting, Mike, is that the selloff, even though it's been a fairly good drop, $2 on a $20 commodity, you're looking at about 12% or so, hasn't dropped the commitment of traders… or the open interest, I should say, on the commitment of traders… very much, which means that the bulls and bears are still pretty equal. There's still a very strongly held commitments to the silver and gold paper paradigm that futures markets more than I would've seen in a very, very long time for this kind of a price drop.

So let me restate that. The $2 drop in silver and a correspondingly percentage-wise drop in gold, normally, you would see a pretty good sell off in the open interest. In other words, the shorts would be winning the battle. That is not what I'm seeing at this point in time. We could see something different after the Labor Day holiday. I'm not sure, but right now, these metals for the whole year, and even during this correction, are acting extremely strong.
