The Real Crisis is Beginning to Unfold… and It’s Not Financial Pt. 1 / Commodities / Food Crisis
By: Graham_Summers
The real crisis is coming… and it’s coming fast.
Indeed, it started last year, almost entirely off the radar of the American public. While all eyes were glued to the carnage in the stock market and brokerage account balances, a far more serious crisis began to unfold rocking 30 countries around the globe.

Gold Intermediate Buy Signal Triggered / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Ned_W_Schmidt
Perhaps we should establish an official day of mourning for the loss of independent thinking now so widespread among today’s journalists. In the U.S., independent journalism has died. Most of the reporting media has now become the official apparatchik of the Obama Regime. With one national network moving into the White House for daily supervision, all pretense of independence has been lost. We can probably, given access to the internet, learn to survive the death of journalism as a profession. However, our wealth may not survive the loss of an independent central bank. Since Federal Reserve actions are somewhat greater than a butterfly in Africa flapping its wings, the rest of the world may need to worry about yet to come financial chaos.

Gold Price Is Boiling Hot! / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Ronald_Rosen
Excerpt From The Walrus and The Carpenter By Lewis Carroll
“The time has come, the Walrus said,
To talk of many things:
Of shoes - and ships - and sealing-wax
Of cabbages - and kings
And why the sea is boiling hot –
And whether pigs have wings."

Precious metals like silver and gold have pulled back to support levels and trending sideways. This week will be interested as we watch prices bounce or breakdown. The energy sector looks be breaking down with more power as the bullish percent index for energy stocks dropped substantially last week.

Silver Correction Over, Strongly Bullish Overall Pattern / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Clive_Maund
We are believed to be at a good entry point for silver here as the overall pattern is strongly bullish, and the predicted reaction of the past few weeks, which has served to unwind the earlier overbought condition, is now thought to have run its course.

Gold Corrective Downtrend Imminent End to Target New Highs / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Clive_Maund
Gold broke down and went into decline, as predicted in the last update posted early this month. At that time our maximum downside target was the strong support in the $880 area, but now there are strong signs that the decline has either run its course, or is close to having done so, and that a breakout to new highs may be close at hand.

Gold Stock Correction Timing / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks
By: Adam_Brochert
I am a big time Gold stock bull based on the deflationary depression that I believe has already begun (for those who don’t understand why deflation is good for Gold miners, look here). The stock market is a dangerous place to be right now and there’s no rush to speculate on the upside right now. Patience will be rewarded as the new bear leg down in the stock market that has begun will take even good sectors down with it.

Gold Potential Long-term Double Top Pattern / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Merv_Burak
Gold dropped a little during the week but really went nowhere in the whole scheme of things. Lots of conversation about where gold is headed, in my local technical googlegroup. Here, you only get the simple, “where are we now?” and “what is the existing direction of trend?”. When things change my indicators will change and I will change with them.

By: The_Gold_Report
Well-known and highly regarded throughout the mining and exploration community, Mercenary Geologist Mickey Fulp returns to discuss the brightening prospects for the junior sector with The Gold Report readers. A Certified Professional Geologist, he is particularly intrigued these days by companies operating in “emerging environments” where the “geological potential is under-explored.” Another area of keen interest Mickey talks about in this exclusive interview is the re-emerging rare earths elements sector, a potential source of neodymium, lanthanum and heavy rare earth elements needed to produce energy-efficient hybrid vehicles.

Time to Buy Gold Stocks and Not the Metal? / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks
By: Julian_DW_Phillips
The gold price average over the last year has risen to close to the current price. This means that the gold sales income of the mining companies has persisted for long-enough for the mining companies to have income available for payout to shareholders or to improve their Balance Sheet. This makes mining companies with their leverage to the gold price more attractive than the metal itself, currently. We let our subscribers know the shares we believe will give them the greatest overall return on their investment, so we restrict ourselves in this article to the underlying principles that guide us in our choice.

Silver Gold Ratio Reversion Points to Serious Under Valuation of Silver / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Zeal_LLC
Silver has endured a rather tough June so far. After peaking just under $16 on the 2nd, this white precious metal plunged 12% to just over $14 by the 15th. This is certainly a significant decline for less than 2 weeks, so silver traders are anxiously wondering what it portends. Will silver languish in the summer doldrums again this year?

Trading Gold with the Gold Direction Indicator / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Peter_Degraaf
In my last article, posted on May 13th, I drew your attention to the HUI index. The article was titled: “All eyes are on Huey”. The article pointed out that the HUI index was breaking out at 350. As it turned out Huey rose to 400, an increase of 14%. At that point I alerted my subscribers to take partial profits as it appeared that the index was going to test the breakout. My subscribers saw me take some money off the table, as I e-mailed the trading details the same day.
