By: Julian_DW_Phillips
That’s what we, at the Gold Forecaster, are doing. After alerting our subscribers at $1,050, and $1,150 with another in between, that gold was turning up while others were pointing to a downturn we feel it is deserved? But far more importantly is the ‘why’ of the matter.

Gold Mining Stock Valuations / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks
By: Zeal_LLC
As gold stocks continue to power higher in their usual spring rally, they are starting to attract investors’ attention again.

But I’ve been researching this thread for over 6 years now, and this week is a great time for an update.

A Small Silver Mining Stock with Big Potential / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks
By: Sean_Brodrick
I recently returned from Mexico, where I toured the Royal Mines of Zacualpan project. The project is owned by Minpoza, a subsidiary of IMPACT Silver (IPT on the TSX-V in Canada; ISVLF on the pink sheets in the U.S.). While there, I toured two of the company’s mines — San Ramon and Chivo. I also toured the processing plant and visited other projects, some already well underway, others still being planned.

By: Seven_Days_Ahead

Searching for Gold and Silver Miners in Peru / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks
By: Casey_Research
Louis James, Senior Editor, Casey’s International Speculator
Last month I visited Peru again, penetrating perhaps a bit deeper but certainly higher up in the Andes than I’ve gone before. No nose-bleeds, but I’m not ashamed to admit that scrambling over rocks in search of boiling textures at 5,300 meters (17,400 feet) elevation left me wheezing like Darth Vader.

Investors Run to Gold and Silver ...World Economy Going Nowhere For Many Years / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Hubert_Moolman
The worst part of the world’s current financial crisis is still on its way. The enormous debt levels present in our financial system is central to this crisis.

Gold and Silver Bullion in Euros, Pounds and Swiss Francs At New Record Highs as Contagion Spreads / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: GoldCore
Bullion denominated in euros and Swiss francs surged to new record highs this morning. The euro has again come under severe pressure as contagion risks increase. While all the focus is on Europe right now, similar risks face the UK and US economies and this is leading to significant safe haven demand for gold internationally.

Debt Crisis Bond Market Collapse, Gold Investor Safe Haven / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: The_Gold_Report
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. While folks are all hunkered down in their bunkers waiting for the apocalypse, though, he suggests investing any spare cash in resource stocks—a "slam dunk" now that they're cheaper than they've been in nearly a decade.

By: Andrew_McKillop
WAR ON TERROR
News reports focus a slightly damaged, propane-charged Nissan four wheel drive abandoned in Times Square, and a well-managed trail of clues leading from the Gulf emirate of Dubai, to Islamabad and the NW Frontier. News from another Gulf, this time the BP rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico, suffers the same heavy-handed news management and hype.

Gold Will Emerge as the Only Safe Haven / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne
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. On a day-to-day basis, certainly the US Dollar and US Treasuries are safe havens. The financial media loves to point that out while noting big single day losses in Gold. 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.
