By: Uncommon_Wisdom
Sean Brodrick writes: For weeks now on UncommonWisdomDaily.com and on my blog, I’ve been talking about the new downleg in the U.S. dollar. This is bullish for commodities in general.
I’ve also been talking about how oil prices are running up even though we haven’t seen a return of U.S. demand AND how China’s economy seems to be recovering faster and even revving up.

Gold Wildly Bullish as Paradigm Shift Underway of Banking Power to Creditor Nations / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Jim_Willie_CB
Numerous events have taken place of global importance. Alone, each story seems of some significance. Together, they paint a mosaic of extreme change in a very dangerous sequence of events that fit together. The greater aggregate story is that a tremendous paradigm shift is underway, with early steps and major moves by global players in clear view. The Western analysts and pundits and mavens are missing it. A PARADIGM SHIFT HAS BEGUN, WITH BANKING POWER SHIFTING TO THE CREDITOR NATIONS AS THE USDOLLAR IS SUPPLANTED, MADE POSSIBLE BY SEVERAL NEW INSTITUTIONAL PILLARS AS WELL AS NEWLY FORGED ALLIANCES. The consequences are significant and will change the face of global banking and commerce.

Investor Energy Strategy as Crude Oil Prices Set to Soar / Commodities / Crude Oil
By: Money_Morning
Keith Fitz-Gerald writes: The U.S. news media has convinced many investors that oil consumption is falling because of the global recession. While that may be true, it's a disservice to millions of investors because production is declining at a pace that's actually three times faster.

Upside Pivot Expected for Natural Gas ETF UNG / Commodities / Natural Gas
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Never a dull moment in the U.S. Natural Fund ETF (NYSE: UNG), right? After watching this crazy market for several years, I still don’t seem to appreciate enough the wicked volatility natural gas is capable of exhibiting on a regular basis. Clearly, no resistance or support level is sacred in the UNG. Having said that, however, IF (and it is always a BIG if) the UNG started a new upleg at the April 30 low of 12.69 and ended the initial upmove of the upleg on May 12 at 17.73, then this deep pullback is a gift to would-be bulls.

Gold, Keeping it Simple / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Chris_Galakoutis
There can be little doubt that the US economy is in uncharted waters. The crash of 2008 and the US government’s response -- and the world’s response, for that matter -- were unprecedented, which means that many of the old rulebooks get thrown out the window.

Gold Price Still On The Launching Pad / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Guy_Lerner
I last wrote about gold on April 30, 2009. In that article, I stated that gold was on the launching pad. Something big was going to happen. Gold had consolidated into a range that would lead to a breakout or a breakdown. The only problem I had no idea what direction gold was going.

By: Paul_Learton
Do you own gold yet?
As I’m sure you’re aware, starting in July 2007, the financial markets entered one of the most severe crises in history. In response to this, the Feds (Federal Reserve, Treasury Department, etc.) have tried to prop up the financial system with numerous interventions. A brief recap of their moves are as follows:

Gold Price Set to Double This Fall / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Paul_Learton
Gold was, is, and always will be THE ultimate storehouse of value. Mankind was prizing this stuff during the prehistoric period, long before the concept of stocks, mutual funds, or paper money even existed.
Now, I know what you’re thinking, “gold has already risen from $250 to $900 an ounce, how much higher can it go?”

Constructive Bullish Pattern for GDX / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Mike_Paulenoff
The weaker dollar, stronger gold, and continued strength of the stock indices has propelled the Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (NYSE: GDX) to new, multi-month recovery highs. After selling off late yesterday in sympathy with the overall stock averages, today the GDX is up in sympathy with the climb in the equity futures as well as because of the “bid” in both spot gold and Euro/$. My overall pattern work remains very constructive and points to a sustained upside breakout above 39.35 – on the way to 41.50-42.00 next. Only a decline that takes out 36.54 will begin to compromise the current chart set-up.

Gold Quietly Moving Towards $1,000 / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: LiveCharts
As the dollar has faltered recently, gold speculators have been among the winners of this financial trend. Along with several major currencies, including the Pound and Euro, gold rates have trended higher since mid-to-late April as the Fed maintains a zero per cent funds rate, and the economy remains sluggish.
