Gold for What its Worth! / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012
By: UnpuncturedCycle
Giuseppe L. Borrelli writes: The last of the human freedoms: to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way. ~ Viktor Frankl
An awful lot is being written about gold and most of it comes from the mouths of individuals who simply don't know what they are talking about. Here's a perfect example of "news" that came across Reuters this morning. The Swiss franc and investments in gold will no longer provide investors with safe harbor from market turmoil and the Eurozone debt crisis, UBS's investment chief told the Swiss bank's client in a letter Friday. "As we enter 2012, neither gold nor the Swiss franc retains a safe haven status," UBS Chief Investment Officer Alexander Friedman wrote in the letter. I'm not going to comment on the Franc but when I read something like this I have to wonder to myself if he isn't taking the other side of the gold trade? There really is no other explanation for a comment like that.

Don't Be Fooled by Gold's Recent Dip, Still Forecast to See $2,000 in 2012 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012
By: Money_Morning
Kerri Shannon writes:
If you're concerned about where gold prices are headed after yesterday's (Wednesday's) bear-market buzz, don't be. This is just a brief pit-stop in what continues to be an epic bull-run for the yellow metal.
Gold prices fell below $1,600 an ounce Wednesday for the first time since October, settling down nearly 5% at $1,586.90 an ounce Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX). That's below the closely-watched 200-day moving average for the first time since January.

Why Buy that Parabolic Move in Gold / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012
By: Aftab_Singh
It may be just me, but it seems like the majority of market participants are terrible at dealing with one of the rudiments of life as a human being; time. It is almost as if the herding man lives in constant contempt for his former self and dogmatic surety about his current convictions (whether they relate to past, present or even the future). If this hunch happens to be true, then it doesn’t take much to see the folly – for surprise surprise; as time passes the much-loved present conviction joins the realm of past regrets. So to thwart the arrogance of the gold bubble-top callers and the long-for-the-sake-of-being-long speculators here I outline why you, they and — hell — I might just buy that forthcoming parabolic move in gold.

Preparing for Gold 2012 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012
By: Ned_W_Schmidt
Imagine most are anxious to put 2011 into the history book. Many of the hopes and dreams of a year ago certainly fizzled as time passed. A raging bull was converted to a bear in nearly all financial markets. So, we do hope for change in the new year, in the markets and especially in November. As we all prepare for 2012, we hope to provide some thoughts for your consideration.

You Can’t Print More Gold, Price Could Reach $10,000 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012
By: Frank_Holmes
What do you get when you mix negative real interest rates with stimulative money supply efforts by global central banks?
An exceptionally potent formula for higher gold prices that could send gold to the unimaginable level of $10,000 an ounce. Negative real interest rates and strong money supply growth are two key factors of what I refer to as the Fear Trade.

Gold Price Forecast 2012: Miners Will Shine as Prices Soar / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012
By: Money_Morning
Peter Krauth writes: Despite a pullback from its all-time high of about $1,920 an ounce set in September, gold is still trading in the $1,750 range. In fact, the glittering metal has gained 22% in the past 12 months.What's more is that I believe gold prices will eclipse $2,200 an ounce next year, and shoot beyond even $5,000 an ounce after that.

Gold Tsunami on the Cusp of $3,000+? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012
By: GoldRunner
The Gold Tsunami analogy continues, and it goes like this……..
“The Dollar Inflation psychology pulled back out into the sea, taking the price of Gold with it.
Those of a deflation bent ran amok on the naked sea bed for a bit, acting like the Dollar Inflation and Gold Price run was over.
Suddenly, the new wave of paper currency inflation popped up on the horizon last week, and many Dow Stock ‘Crashers’ were mowed down with the early start of the tidal wave of Dollar Inflation and rise in Gold.

Peru: An Emerging Power in the Global Gold Hunt / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012
By: Submissions
Chris Devauld writes: Peru has a rich precious metals history. This diverse Andean nation, once a victim of Spanish looting, is now the largest silver producer in the world, the second largest copper and zinc producer and the sixth largest gold producer. The richness of its mineral deposits stems from a dramatic landscape consisting of soaring mountains, winding valleys, stark deserts, dark jungles and lonely coastlines. More than 7% of global mining exploration occurs on this unforgiving terrain, where historical production collides with modern geological technology. The Peruvian mining industry represents about 60% of the country’s export earnings. Earnings from mining are expected to grow 6% annually through 2011-13.
