Gold Latest Activity Looks Too Good To Be True / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
The saying “looks too good to be true” just seems to fit the latest gold activity. I like the action but something just doesn’t jive. Maybe it’s that (lack of) momentum (strength) behind the recent stock price action. Love it while it’s there but always be on guard.

U.S. Dollar Rally Is Hugely Bullish For Gold, Precious Metals / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
For many years, the common viewpoint has been that an inverse price relationship between the United States Dollar and gold constitutes the First Monetary Commandment, and that this Commandment is chiseled into a stone tablet before which markets must genuflect. This false and misleading “Dollar up, gold down” religion has been proselytized at enormous, covert, public expense by the best market manipulations the high priests of Dirty Money have ever been able to buy. This has been done to deceive and delude the people about the true nature of honest money, and its devious, diabolical and immoral imposters.Read full article... Read full article...

Debt Crisis Bond Market Collapse, Gold Investor Safe Haven / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
Talking heads are waxing enthusiastic over signals that the recession is receding, but debris from the derivatives debacle won't go away without a total financial system collapse, according to 321gold.com founder Bob Moriarty in this exclusive Gold Report interview. "Nobody and nothing is going to stop it from happening. It is as absolute as the time and tides," he says.

Gold Will Emerge as the Only Safe Haven / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
In the wake of continuing global financial turmoil, we hear quite a bit about “safe havens.” Ask someone today and they’d tell you that the US Treasuries are a safe haven and probably Gold also.

In today’s world, it seems that few people are aware of Gold’s status as a safe haven for 5,000 years or even only for the last ten years.
