•Silver may track gold prices.
•Platinum prices could remain in the $900 – $1000 range in the near term.
•Copper prices to rise short term? China buying to triple reserves
United States of America:
•re: Federal stimulus packages given to corporations–Will President Obama listen to his public and cap executive bonus monies in these companies?
•FDA needs a complete review & revamp ie: Salmonella cases increasing.
•Solar and Alternate energy sources to expand / flourish, or just more election campaign rhetoric?
Canada:
•Canadians investing in RRSP’s again – $900 Million in January.
