Gold Consolidation Ending as U.S. Treasuries Paper Bubble Bursting / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
The battle for survival continues, as banks resorted to basic revisionist accounting (aka fraud) in order to claim improved health. Their reward was a financial sector stock rally of the most queer kind. The rally depended on all manner of contrived demand from the most sordid of chambers opposed to free markets, using tactics that are typically abhorrent. Next this beleaguered sector must withstand valuation checks and fair value scrutiny. Unless analyst dissent is declared illegal, the sector should fall in value. The new facade of Stress Tests has filled the void left by Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) concessions that led to phony balance sheets. These Stress Tests are neither a test nor a reflection of stress.

Gold Falls After Being Hit by Unusually Large Sell Orders / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
Gold fell marginally for a second day yesterday as gold continues to consolidate after last week’s 5% gain. Gold’s trading was erratic yesterday with unusually large sell orders leading to sharp falls in the price in seconds prior to mild rebounds. Such sharp and speedy declines are very unusual and would suggest a large player wanted gold prices lower in the futures market. Gold has risen some 0.5% this morning.

U.S. Fed Fighting Against Monetary Laws of Physics Boosting Gold / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
How many gallons of water can one pump into a one gallon balloon? How high can one build a house of cards? In all such activities the laws of physics ultimately take control and dominate all else. Just as mankind can not repeal the laws of physics, it can not repeal the “Laws of Money.” The Federal Reserve is aggressively attempting to defy the “Laws of Money,” believing that it can stuff the money genie back in the bottle anytime it desires to do so.Read full article...

Gold and Precious Metals Trading Report For the New Week / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
Last week was interesting with precious metals stocks finding support and moving higher to close above resistance on Friday. Not much has changed in the past few days other than the BP chart (bullish percent index chart) for gold miner stocks which has put in a short term bottom. If gold continues to push higher above its resistance trend line I think we could see gold stocks follow suite and eventually out perform gold.

Silver Eyeing Rally to Strong Resistance Area of $17 / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
Although it dropped a little below its mid-March hammer low, silver held above the key support identified in the last update, with its rally last week taking it away from the danger zone and opening up again the prospect of an upside breakout from the large Cup & Handle reversal pattern, that should lead to a strong advance. The fact that this support held, combined with the clearly defined downtrend that forms the Handle of the base pattern gives traders clearly defined parameters.

Gold Double Bottom Triggers Strong Bull Run / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
Last week gold rallied away from the danger zone, leaving behind a fine small Double bottom on its chart, and it is now shaping up to begin a strong run. On the 6-month chart we can see that gold honored the support described as being of key importance in the last update, rallying away from its early April low and its 200-day moving average to approach the return line of the downtrend channel shown. This is positive action that has created a cushion for those long gold.
