Gold Investing - Here's What to Do Now / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Money_Morning
Monday's drop in gold prices was the largest one-day plunge since February 1983 - which led many of those investing in gold to bail on the yellow metal.
Gold prices tumbled $140.40, or 9.4%, to $1360.60 an ounce. This brought the two-day decline to $203.70, or 13%.

If You're Worried About Gold Prices, You Need to Read This / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Money_Morning
William Patalon writes: When stocks fall by 20% or more from their peak, it's labeled as a "bear market."
With gold prices down 26% from their record close back in August 2011, the "yellow metal" has entered a bear market of its own.

Gold Ambush At The Comex Corral / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Darryl_R_Schoon
Goldman Sach’s prediction of $1200 gold is similar to Hitler predicting the Reichstag fire
Prediction is an art. Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle is as operative in the realms of the unknown as well as in the known. But, sometimes, predictions are a slam-dunk such as the large number of put options placed on United and American Airlines in the days prior to 9/11 through Alex Brown Deutsche Bank, an investment unit with close ties to the CIA’s Buzz Krongard.

Gold Long View / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
Today, gold nearly hit its Head & Shoulders target by making a low of 1321.50. I believe that it has yet to complete its impulsive Intermediate Wave (3) decline and may do so by Thursday, day 56 in its Trading Cycle. That leave room for a 2-day bounce into Monday and a final decline into the Orthodox Broadening Top target of 1155.00 by the end of next week. The alternate view is that gold may have already made its Intermediate Wave (3) and (4) moves and may be ready for the plunge forthwith.

GOLD GLD Short Sellers Getting More than they Bargained For / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
GLD is sporting a probable triangle formation which suggests that it may have one more decline before a more substantial bounce in this series of waves. It appears that the Head & Shoulders target may be the bottom of Intermediate Wave (3) of Primary Wave [2].
Depending on how fast Minor Wave 5 drops to its target, this may be an opportunity for the Primary Dealers to give GLD a boost into Options Expiration. Why? Investors will be stumbling over each other trying to go short on the next decline in an already crowded environment. This will provide easy pickings for the PDs to run the stops on these short sellers.

What the Gold Price Fall Proves? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Jesse
"And this means that it is deeply, deeply wrong to think of rising gold prices when bond yields are low as some kind of symptom of monetary excess." Paul Krugman, 10 September 2011
So don't think of gold as an indicator of monetary excess when it is going up, but when it is going down it can be used to prove your hypothesis of a lack of excess, as PK does in the new article cited below.

Forget the Gold Bulls… and the Gold Bears / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Investment_U
by Alexander Green : Gold cratered Friday and then again yesterday, hitting a two-year low on fears that troubled European countries will have to sell their reserves to cover the cost of increasingly expensive bailouts.
The sell-off took the metal below the important $1,400 psychological threshold. Gold bulls are now proclaiming that this “correction” represents an excellent new entry point before the next big rally.

Gold Slam is a Massive Wealth Transfer from Our Pockets to the Banks / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Dr_Martenson
I am very disappointed by, but not surprised at, the latest transfer of wealth to the bankers from everyone else. The most recent gold bear raid has vastly enriched the bullion bankers, once again, at the expense of everyone trying to protect their wealth from global central bank money printing.
The central plank of Bernanke's magic recovery plan has been to get everybody back borrowing, spending, and "investing" in stocks, bonds, and other financial assets. But not equally so, as he has been instrumental in distorting the landscape towards risk assets and away from safe harbors.

Gold Drop and U.S. Dollar Outlook / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Axel_Merk
Anyone who’s ever had a brick fall on one’s feet knows how much it can hurt. It’s little consolidation if that brick is made of gold. What’s happening to the price of gold? And has our outlook changed, be that for gold, the U.S. dollar or currencies more broadly?

Gold...Silver....Bursting Bubbles......Lead Stock Market Lower.... / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Jack_Steiman
Yes, the selling was across the board today, but the most interesting part of today was watching the continued bursting of the commodity bubbles in gold and silver, along with other areas of the commodity worst. Gold and silver and other commodities have never been anything more than pure froth or a bubble, no different than the bubble that existed in 1998-1999 in the world of technology. What you learn through age is that ALL bubbles burst in time and never come back. The only sad part of bubbles that burst for good is the amount of people who sadly get sucked in at the top. They lose lots of money over the first few months, but are told to hang in there as it always comes back in time.

Don't Panic, Buy Silver / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: The_Gold_Report
It looks bad for precious metals. Gold prices have fallen hard. Explorers are hurting for money. Slim treasuries mean fewer drill programs. Scarce discovery news could lead to fewer listings on the Toronto Stock Exchange. But all is not lost. In this interview with The Gold Report, Rick Mills, owner and host of Ahead of the Herd, points to the fundamentals of silver and the opportunities for stock pickers willing to invest in small bites and wait out the inevitable market ups and downs.
The Gold Report: Precious metal bul lion and equities are taking a hit right now in the market. Why do you feel silver is an interesting investment today?

Gold Price Plummet Is Latest AMSCAM Fraud / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Midas_Letter
Today gold has dropped $133 from last week’s close. Friday’s assassination attempt, which as the price of gold drop from $1,560 and ounce to $1475 per ounce, by futures market shorts is remarkable on two fronts. First is that there were 400 tonnes of (paper) gold sold, or one quarter of global annual production. In one day. The second is that this was such an obvious short play – nobody but nobody could deliver 400 tonnes of physical gold in June if they had to – that it absolutely screams “collusion”. What’s more, the sentiment in the mainstream financial press before the assault began, led by Goldman Sachs, who on Thursday proclaimed it was time to short gold, was massively bearish.

Gold Panic Selling, Bear Market Bottoms / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Jeb_Handwerger
"The main purpose of the stock market is to make fools of as many men as possible." Bernard Baruch
Bear market bottoms are marked by frenzied selling after an extended downtrend of 18 months. Caveat venditor! The record amount of precious metal bears and short sellers getting caught up in this emotional panic may forecast that the downward trend for almost two years in the mining stocks and precious metals may be coming to an end. Capitulation and downward gaps many times mark the bottom or end of the previous downward trend.

The Fed’s Assault On Gold: “Short Selling” and the Rigging of the Gold Market / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Paul_Craig_Roberts
I was the first to point out that the Federal Reserve was rigging all markets, not merely bond prices and interest rates, and that the Fed is rigging the bullion market in order to protect the US dollar’s exchange value, which is threatened by the Fed’s quantitative easing. With the Fed adding to the supply of dollars faster than the demand for dollars is increasing, the price or exchange value of the dollar is set up to fall.
