Bullish Pattern for Gold / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Mike_Paulenoff

Although Italian and Spanish bond yields have plunged today, in reaction to optimism about a forthcoming "real deal" to solve or contain the Euro-zone debt crisis, let's notice the neither the price of spot gold nor the Euro/USD appear impressed -- at least not if the solution implies a massive ECB liquidity injection.

Are Gold and Silver Waiting on Another Catalyst? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Eric_McWhinnie

Last week, gold futures for December delivery increased 3.6%, while silver futures gained 5.1%. The catalyst for the gains came from central banks agreeing to make dollar borrowing cheaper for the euro zone. Currently, gold and silver are holding onto gains as investors wait for another catalyst.

Gold’s 4th Wave Consolidation Nears Completion and Breakout / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: David_Banister

Back in August with Gold running to parabolic wave 3 sentiment induced highs, I warned of a major top and multi-month correction. We all know that the fundamentals for the shiny metal are stronger than ever, but you must keep in mind that the market prices all that in well l in advance. Coupled with excessively bullish sentiment that was capped off by a USA Today cover with Gold on it, it was easy to see a major sentiment correction and therefore price decline was at hand.

Gold Limbering Up to Breakout Upside from Consolidation Triangle / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Clive_Maund

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleIt is now evident that the gold price has been trapped in a narrowing trading range since its early September pre-plunge peak - a Symmetrical Triangle. This type of Triangle, which indicates a state of collective indecision, can lead to a breakout in either direction, depending on what fundamental developments ensue. The main reason that this large standoff pattern has developed at this juncture, in addition to that of an overbought condition having developed that needed correcting, is that the market has been unable to determine which of the primary economic conditions of deflation or inflation is set to take precedence.

Silver Price at Good Entry Point for Major Up-trend / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Clive_Maund

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWith Europe teetering on the verge of collapse, the world has been teetering on the verge of a deflationary implosion, and it still is. That is the reason for the recent severe downdraft in the markets. What is believed to be happening now is that the global banking elites, who ARE the de facto government in many countries, like the US, are scrambling to prevent the collapse of their European division. The stakes are immense - if they succeed they "will kick the can down the road" and push all or much of the banks' bad debts off onto the electorate and taxpayers via austerity measures, bailouts and tax hikes and the course will be set for a hyperinflationary depression, if they fail then we will see the more immediately dramatic and much feared deflationary implosion.

Silver Ready For Take-Off? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Willem_Weytjens

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAfter a very turbulent year, silver now looks set to take off again. In this article I will tell you why I think so.

First of all, let’s look at the Commitment Of Traders reports. Commercials have yet again reduced their Net Short position in Silver, which is now close to the low of 2003 at the beginning of the Bull Market. Commercials are generally seen as the “smart money”, so if they reduce their Net Short Position, they expext price to rise (or at least not drop substantially).

Does Gold’s Correlation with Stocks Mean that it’s No Longer a Safe Haven? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Bob_Kirtley

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleIn this article we examine the current and past relationship between gold and the S&P 500 index and whether or not gold still remains a “safe haven”. In the past gold has often had a low positive relationship with the S&P, with that relationship trending negative in times of economic turbulence (hence gold’s safe haven status) but that trend has not held over the past 10 weeks. We aim to answer the implications this has for gold in the future.

Another Reason Silver Prices Could Roar Higher / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: DailyWealth

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleMatt Badiali writes: Silver is an amazing metal... which is why it's likely to soar over the coming years...
 
You see, silver has more than 10,000 uses. It's one of the world's best conductors of heat and electricity. Inventors filed more patents on silver uses than any other precious metal in the world. And when silver is used for most industrial and technological purposes, it is used up forever... It simply costs too much to try to recycle the tiny bit of silver from every cell phone or casino chip.

Gold and Stocks Possibly on the Brink of Going Up / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks

By: Przemyslaw_Radomski

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThere is palpable fear in the world and the urgency could be felt in the new strategy unveiled Wednesday morning by the world’s major central banks to bolster the financial system by increasing liquidity in the financial markets. In response, stock markets surged with joy with the S&P up 4.3 per cent.

Saving Gold, Old reliable stands tall in crisis atmosphere / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Michael_J_Kosares

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe United States has become a nation of savers. Where once the money management mantra was "invest it and retire wealthy," it is now "save it or lose it" -- a healthy reaction to the chaos, greed and notable lack of safety in traditional investments including those sponsored by Wall Street's financial firms. Retirement plans and pensions are in trouble. The fear is that individual savings could disappear overnight in a general financial system meltdown. Overriding all is a sense that things are going to get worse before they get better and that the time has come to take matters into one's own hands.

Explaining Central Banks' Gold Purchases / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: David_Howden

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe last two years marked a significant shift in central banks' attitudes toward gold. Since 1988, central banks have been net sellers of the precious metal. Lacking convertibility of their paper currencies into the commodity, this occurrence makes perfect sense. Why hold a physical asset with costly storage fees when there is no risk that it will ever be needed? Better to hold an interest-bearing (and easily stored) asset like a government security to earn a profit in the interim. So goes the typical explanation for why central banks load their balance sheets with financial assets instead of physical ones.

Crude Oil or Natural Gas? / Commodities / Natural Gas

By: Zeal_LLC

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleHydrocarbons have become the lifeblood of this modern era.  And with a huge economic incentive for finding and extracting them, drillers have scoured the world in search of this finite resource.  When they do find it, there is nothing more thrilling than bringing this raw form of energy to the surface.

The most famous extracted hydrocarbon is in liquid form, known as petroleum, or crude oil.  With the next most common form being gaseous, known as natural gas.  Crude oil has of course long been the superior hydrocarbon.  In fact, until the last half century or so oil was really the only hydrocarbon with any commercial worth.

Why is Gold Finding Support At This Level? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Eric_McWhinnie

After a 20% fall in September, the technical picture for gold is improving. In September, gold touched a record nominal high just above $1,920, but quickly fell to about $1,540. The move scared speculators and offered a great buying opportunity for those wishing to invest in gold. Now, gold prices have recovered to $1,750. The recovery has been fueled by monetary easing actions and strong buying support across the board.
