Sugar Set to Blast Off! - Where Technology and Hot Commodities Meet! / Commodities / Ethanol
By: Money_and_Markets
Sean Brodrick writes: I was recently in New Orleans and man, that place is coming back strong! Good thing, since NOLA is one of America's most important cities. It's the busiest port system in the world by gross tonnage, and has shaped our country's music, food, architecture and economic history.
The city also has a very strong connection to technological innovations and two hot commodities — cotton and sugar. The story perfectly illustrates the close relationship between new techniques and natural resource demand.

Gold Breakdown Below $800 - What is Happening? / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: David_Vaughn
Well, gold has broken through the 800 barrier and climbed as high as 845. What gives? Why is gold moving on like this? I can say it a hundred times but never enough times really. This is not about gold. Gold is merely a barometer.
True, the gold barometer has been broken for a long time due to intervention by others. But I believe that barometer is back together again and in working order. As always gold merely reflects the circumstances around it. By the way. It looks like 800 just may become the new floor price for gold and not its ceiling.

Shorting Overbought Commodities , Gold, Oil & Gas Using UltraShort ETF / Commodities / Crude Oil
By: Mike_Paulenoff
The big picture of the DUG (the ProShares UltraShort Oil & Gas ETF) shows
Monday morning's huge upside opening gap and follow-through that amounts to
about a 6% climb from Friday's close.
More importantly, though, is the upside assault on the Sept-Nov resistance
plateau at 44.00-44.50, which when hurdled should trigger additional
follow-through to test the Feb-Nov resistance line that cuts across the
price axis in the vicinity of 49.00.

GoldGold was down $3.10 to $832.10 per ounce in New York on Friday and silver was up 1 cent to $15.48 per ounce. Gold was up some 3% last week and silver surged by over 6%.
In Asian and European trading both have sold off and gold is down to $815 per ounce at 1230 GMT. Profit taking, a fall in oil prices and tentative dollar strength are likely the primary reasons behind this much anticipated correction. Gold will likely find good support at the psychological level of $800 per ounce.
