Indian Rupee vs. Silver / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Dr_Jeff_Lewis
Investors shouldn’t forget one of the best sources of demand for silver and gold—India. Gold was always a historically important commodity in India, where it’s seen as a store of wealth. Silver, on the other hand, rose mostly as a necessary “poor man’s” entry into precious metals, which have risen far faster than wages in most of the emerging market economies.

Gold GDX Has Given Us a Nice Secondary Buy Point / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: George_Maniere
There has been a growing numbers of investing experts have been declaring that gold is a bubble: an insanely overvalued asset whose price is bound to burst.
I believe that there is no basis for that opinion. Understanding why I feel this way can help point an investor toward clearer thinking about the frenzied precious metal markets.

Gold and Silver Miners Beginning To Outperform Bullion / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Jeb_Handwerger
There has been short term profit taking in gold over the past few weeks as investors return to an oversold equity market. Make no mistake such a development is temporary and healthy as GST believes gold prices will make it back to the $1900+ area. It is important that our comments be clearly understood. As the Gold ETF(GLD) hit our overbought targets we moved laterally into our mining selections, which were just on the cusp of upside breakouts after several months of consolidation.

Gold Stocks Escape Velocity / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks
By: Neil_Charnock
I have been tracking the gold stocks since gold began to rise in 2001. I am a self-confessed screen jockey so I have seen every phase, quirk, lull and rocket ride this sector has had to offer over since it all began. I love the markets. There have been exciting explosive rallies for gold stocks; a new one has been long overdue. I have watched, analysed and successfully traded this Gold Bull Market (GBM) since it started therefore I hope am well qualified to bring you a valid point of view and an important message.

Downleg in Crude Oil / Commodities / Crude Oil
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Nearby NYMEX crude oil finally proved the chart work correct as it plunged from the upper portion of its September congestion pattern (89.00-90.00) to the lower portion (86.00-84.00). The decline from last Thursday's lower recovery high at 90.15 into this morning's low at 84.93 has the look and structure of a completed downleg.

The last decade has seen tectonic shifts in the global gold market... / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Adrian_Ash
TEN YEARS into the current bull market in gold, enquiring minds are gathered here in Montreal (along with a good number of traders, too) to ask how did we get here? What's driving the price higher? And how much further might there still be?
"History [is] a guide to the future," said Pierre Lassonde, chairman of the $5 billion Franco-Nevada Gold Corporation to the London Bullion Market Association's annual conference, here at Le Sheraton Hotel this morning.

How High Can Gold and Silver Climb? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Jeff_Clark
Jeff Clark, Casey Research writes: With gold a stone’s throw away from $2,000 and already up 27% on the year, the objective investor might begin wondering how much higher both it and silver can climb. After all, gold is nearing its inflation-adjusted 1980 high – and that peak was a spike that lasted only one day.

Compromise​d Global Markets Thwart Any Possibilit​y of Economic Recovery: Gold to Benefit / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Midas_Letter
My argument is that the “disappointing recovery” that began in July is nothing less than the exhausted temporary stopgap effect of stimulus, zero interest rates, and TARP, and not, as stipulated in the mainstream, the onset of a “double dip”, or “economic weakness”. The injection of upwards of $2 trillion U.S. dollars into the global banking layer that blankets national economies created the illusion of growth by manifesting as corporate earnings among banks and Fortune 500 companies. All that the creation of all that capital has done is create more debt – which is exactly its purpose. But more than the debt issues, or rather, overshadowing the effect of debt deterioration on economic vitality, is the fact that markets – stock market index futures, derivatives and futures in all commodities – have been so thoroughly compromised as to become completely untrusted.

Gold Forming a Bullish Consolidation / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne
This is an important juncture for Gold and let me say the analysts. We are starting to see some disagreement on Gold and that is natural after a strong surge. It is a small part of the reason why Gold is likely to soon replicate its last move. We believe the market is ready for another big move that could leave many on the sidelines. It is somewhat of a contrarian call. After a 25% surge in less than two months its natural to assume its overbought and a correction is needed but the evidence favors another surge higher.
