Silver was the best performing commodity in the past decade with a price rise of 572 percent between 2002 and 2012, says a report from the Lloyds TSB Private Banking Commodities Monitor. The banking group said the general perception of silver as a safe investment along with a high demand for it in the industrial sector has led to the high prices of the metal.

Gold prices saw the second highest increase, rising 428 percent during the period while tin, copper and lead jumped 414, 406 and 344 percent respectively.

Weekend Chillout - Slidin' Away

With the US economy slip sliding into a bottomless pit and Benanke now pouring endless flaming petrol into that pit I thought it only appropriate to mark the occasion.

Paul Simon 28 June 2007, live on the Charlie Rose Show

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away

God makes his plan
The information's unavailable
To the mortal man
We work our jobs
Collect our pay
Believe we're gliding down the highway
When in fact we're slip slidin' away
