COMEX Drops Nepalm Bomb on Silver, What Next for Precious Metals? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: David_Banister

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWhat was I thinking trying to forecast a normal "wave 4" correction in Silver without the required insider information that the COMEX was going to raise margin/equity requirements four times in a week? My pullback silver low target of $40.10 was obliterated after two consecutive days of equity requirement increases early last week, knocking silver into the low 33's before it got off the mat and staggered around a bit. Gold followed right behind as margin calls and stop losses required over- zealous traders on the long end to liquidate everything they could find to avoid complete meltdown of their trading accounts.

Investors Don’t Turn Out the Lights on Commodities Just Yet / Commodities / Commodities Trading

By: Frank_Holmes

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe prices for many commodities suffered the worst week in recent memory last week. Oil prices dipped below $100 per barrel, gold fell below $1,500 an ounce and silver gave back much of the past month’s gains by falling to the $35 an ounce level. The prices for other commodities such as sugar, tin, nickel, aluminum, lead and copper also pulled back.

A Policy Driven Silver Price Crash / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Clif_Droke

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleSilver has once again stolen the investment market spotlight. Margin requirements for silver trading rose 84 percent last week, which prompted a major sell-off. Silver posted its worst four-day drop since 1980 and was down more than 25% after the CME Group raised the costs for investors to trade the metal four consecutive times within a week.

Gold Pullback Temporary / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Bloomberg

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleJohn Burbank of Passport Capital spoke exclusively with Bloomberg Television's Margaret Brennan this morning. He said that he's betting on declines in all commodities because of the end of QE2 and that gold may drop until August.

Burbank also said that unless governments inject liquidity into the market, commodities will “trend” back toward price levels seen at the start of QE2.

Commodities After The Crash, No Way But Up / Commodities / Commodities Trading

By: Andrew_McKillop

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAfter a suspiciously short and likely programmed commodities crash we can only have the right hand leg of a "V" profile for commodity prices - until and unless big things happen with the major currencies and national debt crises of most OECD countries, or we have a global economic crash. To be sure, this is the context for highly classic speculative frenzies, where fundamentals are put on the back burner, and the front burners are turned to full on.

Impact on Gold Market If China Economy Overtakes U.S. / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Julian_DW_Phillips

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWe heard that China's economy was going to be the same size as the U.S. economy by 2016. This is considerably faster than U.S. economists thought would be the case just two years ago. At the speed China is growing it will dwarf the U.S. by 2020. The encouragement the Chinese government has given to the development of the gold market in China and the direct incitement from them to buy gold tells us that this is a long-term policy. It also tells us that they would not favor a significant rise in the exchange rate of the Yuan, particularly against the dollar, because this would lower the gold price in the Yuan. So what will the Chinese gold market look like in 2020?

Gold and Silver Trends Depend on US Policy / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

Is It Time to Buy Silver? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Jared_Levy

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleUnless you have been hiding under a rock, you probably know that silver has had a major correction over the past week. The precious metal plummeted about 30% from a high of almost $50 an ounce to less than $35 yesterday. This six-day drop is one of the largest since 1983.

Silver has given back just about all of its gains for the past month and some traders are thinking it might be time to get long. But before you run and buy silver, there are a couple things to consider.

Gold Transition to the D-Wave / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Toby_Connor

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDon't let the title fool you, for reasons I've outlined in this weekend's report I think gold likely has one more move to new highs before the D-wave begins.

However the action in the dollar and silver this week has probably taken the parabolic phase of this C-wave off the table. Rather than the normal sharp spike up it appears that this C-wave is going to end with a more modest move than prior C-waves. That being said it did last much longer and gain just as much above the prior C-wave top as any other C-wave. So in terms of duration and magnitude this C-wave has fulfilled every expectation.

Silver Investors Shock and Horror, Where Next? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Clive_Maund

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleSilver newbies discovered to their shock and horror last week that silver can actually go down as well as up, and even worse, that it drops a lot faster than it goes up. We were partly fooled ourselves last week by the seemingly bullish COT figures, but not to the extent that it stopped us implementing protection in the form of Puts, or Calls in silver bear ETFs such as ZSL.

Gold Shows Relative Strength, Especially Against the Silver Meltdown / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Clive_Maund

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleGold's reaction last week was quite modest, given what happened elsewhere, especially to silver, and with the benefit of hindsight it is quite clear that it was a good point for it to react as it had the Friday before risen to become critically overbought on its short-term oscillators.

Gold Long-term Long Way From a Bearish Reversal / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Merv_Burak

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDarn, missed it by $2.40.  My long term projection of $1575 was exceeded by $2.40.  Oh well, better luck next time.  Now what?  There was a lot of damage done this past week and it may take time to fully recover.  However, anyone who thinks that the US $ is still not in deep trouble reflecting in higher gold prices sometimes ahead is not looking at things realistically.

Silver Takes it on the Chin / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: John_Browne

This week saw the type of downside volatility in the precious metals market that will be remembered for years to come. For those of us who have been long gold, and silver in particular, the memories will not be pleasant. While many had been expecting a pullback in silver, when the violence did come it was nevertheless shocking. Silver shed one third of its value in less than one week. And while gold was pulled down by the general sell off in all commodities (oil, copper, coffee, etc.) the yellow metal shed only 6.5% during the carnage. Those mild losses should remind us that gold is not just another commodity, but has monetary qualities that tend to smooth out volatility. But will silver survive the vicious downturn?

By: Jeb_Handwerger

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleIn early January of 2011, a top secret candlelight dinner was held at the White House. There was no fanfare and meager publicity. Present were the industrial, military and governmental heads of both China and the United States. Our government had just digested the failures of Lehman Brothers, AIG and other corporate icons by creating massive bailouts and running up trillion dollar budgetary deficits.

Silver in Freefall, What's Next? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Przemyslaw_Radomski

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleSilver was one of the top priorities for many of precious metal traders until last week. However, silver market witnessed a dramatic turbulence in recent days. Let’s examine what has happened in silver market, in detail. Two weeks of gains for silver were erased in only 11 minutes this Monday as markets opened for electronic trading in Asia with prices falling as much as 12 per cent in the session. Spot gold fell 2.2% in 40 minutes. On Wednesday prices took another hit on a newspaper report that high-profile investors, including George Soros’ hedge fund, have sold precious metals. Silver for July delivery closed lower by 7.5%, at $39.39 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York
