so you are comparing speculative tech stocks from the bubble to oil/energy/metal demand? china and india are still growing and sucking up energy at a rapid pace. couple that with the fact that opec has said they won't let oil prices drop. these things are happening...this isnt speculation. granted i dont totally understand the dynamics of the gold and silver run up, but i think it does have to do with the u.s. massive debt situation and china's currency and unpegging the yuan. are you trying to tell me these things are going to change sometime within the next couple of years? if anything they will get worse before they get better.
