The U.S. Dollar Gold Inverse Relationship / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Miles_Banner
For the past week the price of gold has performed well. It has maintained its historic high and risen fairly sharply after breaking the $1000 mark. The main reason gold has performed well is because of its inverse relationship with the US dollar. Time and again we see any weakness in the dollar play itself out in the strength of the gold price.

Gold Gives Another Strong Mega-Trend Buy Signal / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Claus_Vogt
In my September 9 Money and Markets column I showed you this gold chart: On that date, I said, “This breakout of a huge triangle is a clear technical buying signal.” I added that the minimum price target of this triangle formation was roughly $1,100. This was well above major resistance in the $1,000 area, thus hinting that another major breakout and buying signal would take place soon.

Commodities Trading Charts for GLD, SLV, UNG and USO / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Chris_Vermeulen
Commodities and stocks have been on fire the past two weeks and I think it just may be time for things to take a breather. While I continue to stay long, taking some money off the table to lock in profits is a safe play.
Just from a quick glance at the charts we can tell the odds are pointing to some type of pause or pullback in the coming days. I figure any day now we could see some profit taking.

Gold Slips from Fresh Record High as Data Sends Stocks and Oil Soaring / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Adrian_Ash
SPOT GOLD slipped from a new record high of $1070.50 an ounce on Wednesday morning in London, easing back 0.8% as world stock markets jumped and crude oil shot to a 12-month high above $75 per barrel.
Both US Dollars and Japanese Yen – last autumn's "safe haven" currencies amid the global banking collapse – were sold lower on the forex market.

Gold New Record All Time Highs, USD Record Lows Again? / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: GoldCore
Gold has traded at new nominal record highs (over $1,070/oz) and is currently trading at $1.066/oz. In EUR and GBP terms, gold is trading at €715/oz and £665.90/oz respectively. Resistance currently lies at $1,070/oz with initial support at $1,050/oz and then at $1,040/oz. With oil back above $75 per barrel and at a 1 year high, and the dollar again under pressure today, gold continues to eke out gains. Gold's record comes as the dollar (as measured on the US Dollar Index) has fallen to lows last seen in August 2008 and has breached 1.49 against the euro.

Gold Price Bagain at $1,000, GoldSeek's Peter Spina Going for Gold / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: The_Gold_Report
The convergence of an assortment of forces—probably the least compelling of which is jewelry demand and the possible role of gold in oil transactions probably the most powerful—promise to keep driving up the price of gold, according to GoldSeek.com founder and president Peter Spina. Still, in this exclusive Gold Report interview, as the gold price climbs toward $2,000, he suggests that investors might wait for another market rally in mining stocks, take some profits and invest the proceeds to add some physical gold to their portfolios. A year from now, says Peter—who also co-founded GoldForecaster.com—we'll look back on $1,000 gold as a bargain.

The Best Reasons to Buy Silver and Gold Now / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Sean_Brodrick
The spot price of gold soared to its highest level ever this week, as the dollar tanked and precious metals bears got mauled. But many investors, still sitting on the sidelines, ask themselves: Do I want to buy now? NOW?! When gold is over $1,000 an ounce?!
I understand those investors’ concerns — and if you’re one of them, nobody can make the decision for you. It’s doubly hard because the mainstream media is cranking up its anti-gold propaganda to a feverish pitch, like the story that ran in the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday, “Gold Is Still a Lousy Investment.”

Gold Price Action Emphasizes ‘Standard’ Status / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Midas_Letter
It's fascinating how many economists and bankers argue against the re-establishment of gold as an official monetary standard. An analysis of its price performance over time relative to G7 currencies demonstrates that, as a barometer of national currency health, there is nothing more reliable.

Gold Hits Another Record High of $1,064 / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: GoldCore
Gold has surged to new record nominal highs above $1.064/oz in trading in Europe this morning. With the US Holiday yesterday gold traded in a $10 range on Monday. In euro and GBP terms, gold is trading at €719/oz and £675.86/oz respectively. Concerns regarding the dollar and rising oil prices seem to be the impetus for gold's new record highs today. While the large COMEX positions may suggest a correction is likely, it is important to note that open interest levels remain well below the record 593,953 contracts seen in mid January 2008 (the gold open interest on the COMEX rose 2326 contracts to 502,513 yesterday).

Collapsing Monetary Base Deflationary Threat to Gold / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Ned_W_Schmidt
With $Gold now trading firmly above US$1,000, at least on a temporary basis, all are joyous that the Gold Bugs have won. The paper equity charlatans have been vanquished, at least for now. Those fanning emotions with stories about cabals, price suppression, and manipulation may now have to find some other drivel to pedal. GATA, the Gullible and Truly Amateurish, has now firmly been proven a purveyor of fantasy. Those that have opposed Gold and Silver ETFs can now, with knuckles dragging on the ground, return to the back of their caves

For Gold and Crude Oil Traders / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Charles_Maley
Gold has broken out to all time highs this week trading as high as 1050 or so in the December contract. I wonder however, if this is the launching pad for the well touted $1500-$2000 per ounce.

Gold Rallies Despite U.S. Dollar Strength / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: GoldCore
Gold closed Friday night trading at $1,048/oz and is currently trading $7 higher at $1,055/oz. In Euro and GBP terms gold is trading at €716/oz and £669/oz and has also risen sharply in these currencies in recent days and the last month. Support for gold is currently seen at $1,040 and resistance at $1,062. The record weekly dollar close was bullish from a technical perspective but gold may need a correction and consolidation (in dollar terms) prior to challenging the next psychological level of $1,100/oz.

Gold Breakout, Signals Bull Market That Will Run for Many Years / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Howard_Katz
I am the Greatest! - To be completely honest, it is not me who is the greatest. Of course, it is Mohammed Ali who is the greatest. And I may not even be the greatest economist. That honor has to be shared with those few gold bugs who foresaw the break above $1,000 and who kept their subscribers long gold and gold stocks.
