I recently spent 7 days in the hospital, fighting the effects of Covid-19 and Pneumonia. It was touch and go for a couple of days. I was loaded up with antibiotics, steroids, donor plasma, blood thinners and everything else you could imagine. And yet, I pulled through. I believe the reason for my survival is that there's so much more I have to do in life. While the experience was by no means pleasant, it was very instructive and I learned a lot. I wouldn't have done anything differently, other than to have gone to the hospital a week earlier. I made the decision early on to live a normal life or as normal as possible. I have no regrets on that score. My colleague Bill Powers and I have a great conversation about living your best life in the age of Covid. It's up to all of us to find our best angels and proceed accordingly. The only advice I can offer is that if you any symptom whatsoever, get treated. Assume you have the coronavirus and get off to the doctor or hospital and get it treated. You'll likely avoid much of the pain and suffering that I encountered and that's a good thing. Special thanks to Bill Powers and the folks over at Mining Stock Education. |

David Morgan appeared for FSN while I continue to recuperate from Covid-19. David is doing his usual outstanding analysis of gold and silver prices. According to David gold is now in a cup and handle pattern, the most powerful formation we can observe. David thinks we are in a 2-3 year move. We’ll be breaking 2000 gold and once that happens, we’re looking at the final leg of this massive movement. David talks silver and the picture is very encouraging. Platinum, Palladium getting ready for the next Platinum move. The market is telling us that it could be time to get out of Palladium and into Platinum. Silver isn’t quite in a cup, but it won’t be long. Keep a close eye on the silver chart. We’ve seen a flat 5 year silver chart. The last year saw a move to $30 and a consolidation. We’re pushing towards the $27 level. Volume is the key. If you don’t know the volume, you don’t know anything. Just go over to The Morgan Report for more info. Thanks for all your kindnesses while I’ve been dealing with my illness. We’ll be picking up again and soon we’ll be better than ever. Thanks David for standing in for me. |
