What Kind Of Year Will 2012 Be?

I still remember when 1999 rolled over into 2000 and it seemed like such a milestone. Here we are on another one – the magical year of the Mayan calendar. Rather than predicting the end of the world, I believe this will be the end of an old way of operating on our planet. For years, the few have had control over the many, and every day I see the truth is being revealed.

I believe we are coming into a special age and the end of a cycle, not the end of the world. In this coming time, many things will change – eventually I believe even our currency will change.

Less and less control is being had by the people in the ivory towers, government, and businesses. More people are becoming entrepreneurs, living their life’s purpose, and using their own gifts and talents to make the world a better place. Everything is becoming transparent, even more so since we are all connected by the internet.

Some things we might see this year could include: the Euro falling apart (which may make the dollar stronger), the dollar and precious metals moving up at the same time (like the first week of this year), oil prices being volatile due to relations with Iran, and more. No doubt, it will be an exciting year!

Last year precious metals had an extremely volatile year. Silver moved up and down 100% intra-year! Gold added another approximately 20% gain, similar to the last 10 years, making it 11 years of gains in a row! The gold and silver mining stocks were a disappointment, down 18%, but look to be a fantastic buy here. The sentiment is the worst it’s been in years, which of course, is positive for the mining stocks to go up!

This is the perfect time to scoop up as many silver Eagles as you can. At only $35 a coin, I think they are a bargain. Last year silver almost reached $50 an ounce, so you’re getting a great buying opportunity here.

One thing I know. Paper money like the US dollar is being printed into oblivion. We’ve done nothing to clear our debts, we’ve just taken on more debt. In the meantime, gold and silver will be the store of value that maintains purchasing power while the paper money is trashed.

Many of the major banks/brokerages have predicted gold at $2,000 an ounce or more by the end of 2012: Morgan Stanley, UBS,  Goldman Sachs, Barclays and others. With China opening it’s own gold exchange, demand for gold should grow. Tensions with Iran can cause a flight to gold. Silver could break through $50 this year. Billionaire Eric Sprott considers silver to possibly be the investment of the decade! Volatility is the toughest thing to wait out. However, I believe this is the year your patience and foresight in owning precious metals will be rewarded.

This is the time to find out what’s really going on with money. Intuitively, you may know things have changed, but it’s hard to put all the puzzle pieces together and see the real truth. I’ve put it together into a clear picture.
