2. CRUDE OIL PRICE WILL TRADE ABOVE USD 100 BEFORE X-MAS 2008
3. GOLD WILL TRADE ABOVE USD 1'000 BEFORE X-MAS 2008
Each time I am wrong you get 1 silver ounce (please click on link to see the picture of the coin)...."
I must say:
a) You are incorrect about my precious metals position(s).
b) I do not - as a matter of practice - ever discuss my own position(s) nor advise others in that regard,
c) My views on Willie's blog ideas do not preclude seeing stronger or weaker metals prices over the next xx months regardless, and
d) I have not presumed any link between oil and gold futures here.
Therefore,
I must regretfully - and in good humor  - decline your playful bet , and look forward to your further metals postings.
(And - with apologies - wish you all good and peaceful night. It is past my bedtime! A demain!)
Cheers,
Selene

Thanks for your reply,
ok no bet as you wish and I agree you did not talk about crude oil....
and yes I try to post as much as I can about precious metals because it is a very important topic for the near future and believe me not only for the view precious metals bugs but even more importantly for central bankers all over the world...
The first central bank that decides to gold-back its currency will have a strong and stable currency....
Gold standard comes back...I can imagine, that Switzerland is the first country to get back to this....and there is going on something right now into this direction....
If US, Canada and Mexico really come-up with the AMERO it needs to be goldbacked as well otherwise investors will have no trust into AMERO and this is probabely also the reason why United States didn't sell (at least officially) an ounce of gold the last couple of years....
Lets see what comes, but I am sure we'll have some nice surprises....
Greetings,
