Technical View of What’s Next for Precious Metals, Stocks & the Dollar / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Chris_Vermeulen
Last weeks price action unfolded just as we expected. Money poured into stocks with the focus being on small cap, banks and technology stocks. The fact that these sectors are showing strength while utilities, health care and consumer staples lag is a good sign that investors are once again taking risks in the market.

By: Merv_Burak

By: Sol_Palha
"Remember when $25, 000 was a success? Now it is a garbage collector." ~ Frank Dane

Gold Price Major Correction Coming? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Julian_DW_Phillips
We are hearing from some sources that the gold price will tackle previous highs then fall to $850. We did hear this before gold rose to $1,100, with many believing that then there would be a correction to $850, but it didn’t happen then either. What happened was that gold held its ground then broke upwards through resistance to set itself on track for higher prices.

The US Mint’s popular American Eagle gold and silver coins remain in high demand by US investors.

No Gold Price Manipulation / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Brian_Bloom
Summary and Conclusions - Contrary to the opinions of various gold commentators it is the view of this analyst – flowing from the analysis below – that the gold price is not being manipulated at this juncture. The world appears to be about to enter a period of deflation. The severity of this deflation will be a function of the appropriateness of the behaviour of the world’s central banks in respect of their responsibilities to ensure that the fleet of economic ships maintains an even keel. If they over react at this point, we might experience a bursting of the debt bubble and a resulting world Depression. If they react with responsibility, then the probabilities favour a slow deflation of the debt bubble. The behaviour of the gold price and the bond yields in the past few days appear to be pointing to the fact that a dose of reality has crept into the thought processes of the world’s governments and central banks.Read full article...

A Revisit to the Fake Gold Plated Tungsten Story / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Robert_Bradshaw
The gold-plated, tungsten-filled bars story hasn’t gone away. Not only has it continued to pop up in various gold and hard-money, investment-advisory letters; but even the populous press publishers, like the American Free Press and Rense.com, have found it expedient to publish material on it as well.

Weakness in Gold GLD ETF / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Apart from the fundamentals that indicate the global economy, in general, and China and the U.S, in particular, might be showing signs of resurgence after over a year of “government stimulation,” the last 24 hours of trading has damaged the near-term technical condition of spot gold prices and the SPDR Gold Shares (NYSE: GLD). Yesterday, gold reversed from early morning strength as prices sliced beneath an important 5-week uptrendline (at approx. $1109).

Gold Under Pressure as Equities Fall and CFTC Investigates Market Manipulation / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: GoldCore
Gold fell sharply in a short period of time yesterday in US trading - falling from $1,127.35/oz to $1,103.45/oz to close with a loss of 1.26%. It has range traded from $1,105/oz to $1,109/oz so far in European trading this morning. Gold is currently trading at $1,105.70/oz and in euro and GBP terms, gold is trading at €811/oz and £739/oz respectively. Oil at over $82 a barrel would be expected to lead to inflation hedging buying but is not supporting gold today.

Gold and the Paper Bubble / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Adam_Brochert
Talk of a Gold bubble over the past 6-9 months grows louder and louder. It is comical and a sign of desperation among those losing their grip on the levers of power and influence. I have never seen a bubble so heavily recognized and announced by the very institutional participants who are pouring all their money into it! Will Gold become a bubble? I think it may, which is why I own it. The break out over $1000/ounce last fall has certainly cleared the deck and made it a possibility.

Although the bank wouldn't comment directly on the possibility, they did say, "We are closely looking at the gold market... gold is a safe bet."

The Seasonality of Gold Has Broken Down / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: The_Gold_Report
The Gold Report has again interviewed newsletter writer and commentator Lou Paquette, who launched the Emerging Growth Stocks website in 1995 to provide investors and speculators with a unique alternative to what he saw was a growing problem with corporate governance and conflict of interest on Wall Street. He is not counting out the U.S. dollar quite yet as the euro waivers. He also believes that there is no longer necessarily a seasonality regarding gold and gold stocks.

What China Wants More Than Physical Gold / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: DailyWealth
Steve Sjuggerud writes: "A few factors limit our ability to increase [our] investment in gold," China's Chief foreign exchange regulator Yi Gang said in a speech this week.
Investors have long speculated China will start buying gold and selling its hoard of U.S. dollars at some point. (China's hoard could be literally trillions of U.S. dollars.) It would be the first step in a "Doomsday" scenario...
