Climate Change, Nuclear Power and the Red Queen Syndrome / Commodities / Nuclear Power

By: Richard_Mills

All through human evolution we have been harnessing increasingly effective forms of energy. From human power to horse power, to wood, coal, natural gas and uranium we've been working our way up the energy efficiency ladder. In reality what we've been doing is searching for the highest energy density to make energy production more efficient.

"The release of energy from splitting a uranium atom turns out to be 2 million times greater than breaking the carbon-hydrogen bond in coal, oil or wood. Compared to all the forms of energy ever employed by humanity, nuclear power is off the scale. Wind has less than 1/10th the energy density of wood, wood half the density of coal, and coal half the density of octane. Altogether they differ by a factor of about 50. Nuclear has 2 million times the energy density of gasoline." William Tucker, Understanding E=MC2

Gold Stocks Cyclical Decline? / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks

By: The_Gold_Report

The Gold Report met up with Rick Rule, founder and chairman of Sprott Global Resource Investments Ltd, at the Hard Assets Conference in San Francisco. In this interview with The Gold Report, he shares his belief in the power of gold as both "catastrophe insurance" and an investment vehicle. As to equities, he sees a new discovery cycle lifting the prospects of majors and juniors alike, as long as they act like "rational" businesses.

The Gold Report: Rick, you believe the natural resources sector is experiencing a cyclical decline in a secular bull market similar to the 1970s. Is that true for other sectors as well?

Gold and Real Interest Rates / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Zeal_LLC

Early in gold’s secular bull, contrarian investors looked to real interest rates as one of this metal’s primary drivers.  Eleven years ago when gold still languished under $300, mainstreamers scoffed at the notion that there would ever be sizable gold investment demand.  But then, as now, negative real rates create strong incentives for bond investors to deploy significant fractions of their portfolios in this unique asset.

Germany's Gold and Your Silver / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Dr_Jeff_Lewis

The recent furor over Germany’s request to audit its gold reserves being held by central banks in New York, London and Paris has highlighted the fact that there is even more reason to have one bar in hand versus two bars in the bush in today’s uncertain world.

The controversy arose after the Bundesbank’s official requests for a full audit of German gold reserves were apparently been turned down by the foreign central banks responsible for storing the bulk of German gold.

By: Dr_Jeff_Lewis

A quiet battle is being fought in the silver market between investment interests and industrial demand.

The world is finally waking up to the fact that governments can take the real silver money out of circulation, but they cannot take the money out of silver as a commodity.

Uranium Stocks to Benefit From Nuclear Power Resurgence / Commodities / Uranium

By: Money_Morning

Don Miller writes: Nuclear power is poised to make a comeback, and the spike in uranium demand it will bring over the next few years will send uranium stocks soaring.

While the Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan in March 2011 stirred a lot of talk about abandoning nuclear power, nations have since come to realize their energy needs can't be met without nuclear being part of the equation.

By: Ben_Traynor

THE U.S. DOLLAR gold price traded close to $1730 an ounce during Thursday morning's London session, holding onto gains made a day earlier, as European stock markets edged higher, with US markets closed today for Thanksgiving.

Prepare For A Possible Gold And Silver Price Spike / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Jeb_Handwerger

The U.S. election results are in.  The people have chosen.  Subscribers are well aware of the changing rules of the game will conform to the latest economic developments.  There may well be a period of negativity relating to the general markets due to the U.S. election, Fiscal Cliff and Year End Tax Loss Selling.  We may see both parties come to some sort of conciliatory agreement to save the holiday season.  This is known after the election as the Honeymoon Phase, when previously antagonistic parties feel the need to think “Can’t We All Just Get Along!”

Gold Could Easily Double Amidst Hyperinflation Collapse / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Nick_Barisheff

Asset manager Nick Barisheff says, “There’s never been a fiat currency in history that didn’t end in hyperinflation and complete collapse.”  Barisheff thinks that Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner’s most recent call to have an “unlimited debt ceiling” for the U.S. was “just telling the truth.”  That’s essentially what we have now with “open-ended” money printing by the Fed.  Barisheff adds, “All it’s doing is postponing a problem . . . it makes it bigger and eventually it blows up.”  Forget about remedies for the economy, it’s too late.

World Energy Outlook 2012: High Priced Energy / Commodities / Energy Resources

By: Andrew_McKillop

THE IEA MOVES ON
The IEA in late November published the 2012 edition of its flagship annual study, the World Energy Outlook, but with now-admitted "treading of a fine line", between its mandate, and its recent and present policy interests, fantasies, or foibles. The Agency (IEA) describes itself, in each issue of the WEO, as an "autonomous agency established in November 1974" with its its primary mandate, which it says it continues to pursue, being two-fold: to promote oil supply security amongst its now-28 member countries through "collective response to physical disruptions in oil supply", and also to provide "authoritative research and analysis on ways to ensure reliable, affordable and clean energy" for its exclusively OECD member countries.

Gold and Silver Trend Prognosis / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne

We’ve been surprised at the recent action in the precious metals complex. During the recent correction the shares were showing quite a bit more strength than the metals. Then the shares took a dive below support yet the metals maintained their recent lows! How do we interpret this wild volatility in the relationship between the shares and the metals? Quite often we look at daily and weekly charts. Now is the time to take a look at the monthly charts which can help us get a better read on the larger trends at hand.
