Gold, Soveriegn Risk and Austrailian Super Tax Redesign / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
Europe is not “all better” by a long shot and the net result will be more turmoil and attraction to gold as a safe haven investment. Volatility is the other most important trend this year as we ebb and flow between risk aversion and risk appetite. Each new “revelation” about German and French bank US$958B, or total European bank US$1.6T exposure to the PIGS of Europe will bring on the volatility. UK has exposed themselves to US$370B in loans to just Spain and Ireland.

Private Currencies Give Metals Investors Hope / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
Metals investors enter the business for usually one reason: to protect their money against inflation. Obviously this wouldn't be a goal if currencies weren't generally inflated into oblivion, or if the history of the fiat currency could give investors any hope that inflation wouldn't happen.

Growing Bullish Psychology for Gold GLD ETF / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
Gold and the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE: GLD) act very well today, in sympathy with the upward pressure on the stock indices, as well as because the dollar is considerably weaker.
I cannot help but think that also playing into today's mix is the WSJ article about the Fed reviewing its options if the economy weakens "again." From a gold bug's perspective, I have to think that the prospect of ZERO or NEGATIVE interest rates for an indefinite time period, coupled with THE DESIRE by the world's institutions to "create inflationary expectations" in a grand effort to avert a deflationary spiral, have to be underpinning a growing bullish psychology for gold.

Gold Set for New Record Highs / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
Gold rallied on the open in Asia and has maintained those gains in early trading in Europe as the dollar has. Last week's all time higher weekly close was important technically and means that gold's technicals remain strong after its recent weekly and monthly (May) higher closes. Indeed, momentum traders and those making "the trend their friend" could push gold to new (nominal) highs in the coming days.

Gold Bugs All Aboard the Last Train For The Coast / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
All aboard, dear gold bugs. The train is slowly picking up speed and is leaving the station. It is your last chance to get aboard at a price reasonably close to $1,000/oz. Now you may not agree that $1,250 is reasonably close to $1,000, but when you see gold at $3,000, then you will agree. From the vantage of $3,000, then $1,000, $1,250 no big deal. The point is to be long of gold.

Gold Going to Parabolic Top of $10,000 by 2012 For Good Reasons / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
No wishful thinking here! As I see it gold is going to a parabolic top of $10,000 by 2012 for very good reasons - sovereign debt defaults, bankruptcies of “too big to fail” banks and other financial entities, currency inflation and devaluations - which will all contribute to rampant price inflation.

Gold New High Was Not Decisive / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
The week started out well but didn’t finish as such. Although gold made new highs it was not decisive. Should gold drop below the $1216 mark we might be in for more downside but if it closes above the $1250 level then the bull is expected to continue.
