"Shanta is pleased to announce" - pleased! They don't care about us.

"he recorded 824 combat missions." - and I believe that he holds the record.

By the way, that piece on the gold price was posted by Bob Moriarty on his site - http://www.321gold.com/, and today, 31st March is the 40th anniversary of the day in which he made history with his daring stunt of flying under the Eiffel Tower (watch it here, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_txdqnVP3-c).

He is quite a character - from Wikipedia -

"Robert J. Moriarty (born September 9, 1946) is an American Marine F-4B fighter pilot who holds the record as the youngest naval aviator (at age 20) in the Vietnam war, achieving the rank of captain in the Marines at age 22. Before leaving military service in 1970, he recorded 824 combat missions.

He holds 14 international aviation records including the record for flight time between New York to Paris in two different categories. In 1984, at age 37, he was in the headlines for flying, on March 31 at 11:20, between the pillars of the Eiffel Tower (in Paris) aboard a Beechcraft Bonanza aircraft."

The Wikipedia page about him is a disgrace. It is correct with its account of his famous flight under the Eiffel Tower, but under "Publications" it fails to mention that many years ago he started 321 Gold, which is stil going today. Wikipedia censorship.

Just before I get to gold, may I bore you with more on "pence"?

After decimalisation, people (many, but not all) stopped saying "penny" and "pence", and said "pee" - i.e. 50p - "fifty pee" for "fifty pence", which used to be ten shillings, or ten bob, in proper money.

Other units of currency - a score, a pony and a monkey - but that's another story.

It's Sunday, so nothing serious but it might cheer you a bit - "PROOF THAT GOLD SHOULD GET TO $10 000!! and

SILVER TO $500!! (by 2028?)"

http://www.321gold.com/editorials/lodewijks/lodewijks033124.pdf

Unless you are in need of a bit of fantasy entertainment, I wouldn't recommend wasting your time on it. I've seen it all before - "Gold Going to Parabolic Top of $10,000 by 2012 – For Good Reasons by Arnold Bock, June 2010." and many more like that.

For those who don't know - gold didn't go to $10,000 by 2012.

However, I am coming round to having confidence in the forecasts of $2,400, $2,500 and even $2,600 in April, 2024 - the month that begins tomorrow.

Thank you Grezzz.

I was slightly off in saying that " pence is British English and pennies is American English".

In Britain we do say pennies. "The little girl saved all her pennies in a piggy bank."

The British versus American issue is just when referring to the units of currency.

Anyway, when it comes to gold, Americans won't be talking about pennies. They will be talking about the price rising in dollars, and lots of them.

I never realised before that pence is British English and pennies is American English -

This page explains how to use each of of them.

Thanks for that video 1755.

At 27 seconds - in 1972 the gold price took off just before a wave of inflation hit. That inflation was caused by war in the Middle East pushing up the price of oil to record levels. Yet again, there is trouble in the Middle East. Has the oil price yet to react to the restrictions on shipping in the Red Sea? Plus the situation could get worse. Yesterday I read that Russian warships have entered the Red Sea.

In the video, he goes on to talk about a rising gold price signalling an economic downturn. Hear what he says at 3 minutes about economic growth.

The US economy has a new, huge problem - and this is by Martin Armstrong no less -

"Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse – Black Swan Event "

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/world-news/world-trade/francis-scott-key-bridge-collapse-black-swan-event/

In that article - "Let me begin by explaining how crucial the Francis Scott Key Bridge was to America’s supply chain. Around 52.3 million tons of international cargo estimated to be worth $80.8 billion passed through the port in 2023. Around 4,900 trucks, carrying around $28 billion in goods, must be rerouted due to the bridge collapse. It is the second busiest strategic roadway in the US for hazardous materials. These hazardous materials include diesel fuels. Did you know that diesel fuel is not permitted to be transported via tunnel? Fuel prices will rise, fertilizer prices will rise."

- and - "Baltimore is the largest entry point for all large agricultural and construction equipment, and this will have a ripple effect across US agriculture in general. It has been noted that this collapse occurred during the peak of planting season for Midwest region as the ground has begun to thaw. Our entire food supply is at risk."

By the way, about penny and pence. Something struck me that I had never thought about until now - that we have two plural forms of penny - pence and pennies. I don't know if there any other words in the English language that have two plural forms.

There are one hundred pennies in a pound

When Americans get hold of anything at a very low price they talk about buying it for "pennies on the dollar".

We wouldn't talk about a share price rise of ten pennies. We would say it went up by ten pence. In a shop, we wouldn't say that something cost fifty pennies, we say it costs fifty pence.

Pubs used to have a "pile of pennies" to raise money for charity. Perhaps they still do.

I don't know whether this helps you or whether it adds confusion.

Does anyone know of a rule that explains when to use "pence" and when to use "pennies"?

"If the Patels get their evil way and this bid is accepted and the company sold" - they got it on the cheap and we lost out on our just rewards. I was in TSG when it was taken in a very similar way . It had a huge gold-rich property, high grades, low cost of production, it had everything going for it and just as came out of the development phase and started paying a dividend, someone stepped in, the board recommended the takeover and if I recall correctly, we didn't even get the chance to vote. That stunk.

Hi 1755, don't worry about it at all. Your English is very good. Glad to have you on this board.

This is on the website for the CPS - "Inchoate offences".

I found it very interesting, and it gets more interesting further down. I am not a lawyer and have never had any legal training. I know nothing.

In case you have never heard of him - Paul Craig Roberts isn't just another mouthpiece.

He was in the US government and he was on President Reagan's team that negotiated the end of the cold war after the fall of communism and the end of the Soviet Union and he still has contacts in Washington and around the world. He understands US \ Russian relations better than most people.

Geopolitics could overtake all other issues.

I do not intend to discuss the politics of Russia, Ukraine, NATO, WW3 other than with regard to its effect on the gold price. The articles below are presented merely to show how close we are to the situation escalating into all out war.

I have in mind something Jim Sinclair said. Gold will go "No bid".

No one will sell their gold. He was talking about bullion. Obviously the miners will sell their product - but at what price? It will be snapped up at Bitcoin levels. Let's hope we live to enjoy the rewards.

Unkrvw - it's the same today. The law is a rigged game, rigged against ordinary people. Do you remember, a few years ago, when we found out that rich people buy large houses without paying stamp duty because they knew of a way round it, a legal way? Also, look at how some people go bankrupt but don't lose their assets because they know the laws on bankruptcy and they arranged things so that their assets were out of reach of the law. I could say a lot more but I'd better stop there otherwise this will turn in to a long essay.

Annie, I'm fairly sure that the last vote was on the Scheme and this vote is for the court meeting. I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than myself will confirm or correct me.

I've just been into II and voted again, but I still haven't had a voting form by post for the SHG shares I hold as a certificate at home.

"Gold’s long anticipated breakout finally arrives…"

11 days ago he said a pause was necessary - he was right, "I doubt that gold will linger for too long under $2,200" - he was right.

"I would't be surprised if gold tests $2,400 by April" - and he goes on to say $3,000 gold in November, 2024.

It's only a three and a half minute video, see what you think of his reasons for those numbers.

Talking of forecasts - I recently saw one (with good analysis backing it up) that gold will be at $2,400 in April and of course there was Michael Oliver with his prediction that once the rise starts (I would say it started two weeks ago) the gold price will rise by $600 in sixty days, so that would be at about the end of April Will this takeover deal be sorted out by then?

It did it - over $2,200.
