Gold Safehaven Against Fiat Currency Debt Orgies / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Adam_Brochert
In a world gone mad with paper debt ticket orgies, maintaining the purchasing power of one's savings is difficult. The more debt-based currency entries that are created, the more each existing currency entry is diluted. The lag time and unevenness of the price distortions created by such a bizarre out-of-control monetary system hold the system together, as the sheeple, in aggregate, can't put two and two together. Everyone thought real estate was a great store of wealth a few years ago. Now, not so much.

Euro Attack Sending Gold Lower / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Howard_Katz
Part of the explanation for the Dec.-Jan. decline in gold is the attack on the euro which is now going on in the media. Indeed, the euro topped out very close to the exact day of the top in gold. The market is thinking: decline in euro = rise in dollar = decline in gold.

Gold Making Bearish Lower Highs and Lows / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Merv_Burak
The daily gold trading information still does not give me great confidence that a new bull market is ahead. Lower highs and lower lows has been the pattern these past few months and needs to change.

Gold and Silver, Correction/ Colsolidation / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Sol_Palha
"See it big, and keep it simple." ~ Wilferd A. Peterson
From high to Low Silver has dropped over 24%. From high to low Gold has so far shed only roughly 12%. Silver also did not take out its 2008 highs when Gold went on to put in a series of new all time highs. This is another massive intra market negative divergence signal and yet another reason to suggest that Gold could correct/consolidate for several months. On a positive note gold has held up remarkably well in the face of a very strong rally from the dollar. If it continues to hold up like this, then when the dollar rally finally fizzles out, one can expect gold to literally explode upwards.

What Does Silver's Weakness Mean For Precious Metals Investors? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Przemyslaw_Radomski
This week the World Gold Council released their 2009 Gold Demand Trends report and embedded in the statistics were a few tidbits we found interesting.
Overall investment in gold was 7% higher in 2009 than 2008. This is significant when you take into account that demand in the fourth quarter of 2008, during one of the worst financial meltdowns we have ever known, was so great that there were global shortages of physical metal. Nevertheless, in 2009, at a time when fears of a global financial disaster have abated somewhat, investors still bought more gold than in 2008. In other words, more gold was purchased at higher prices when the markets were less terrifying, than when the prices were lower and fear was at its zenith.

Gold, Currency Crisis and Debt-liquidating Depression or a Hyperinflationary Blow-off / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: The_Gold_Report
However the evolving global currency crisis ultimately manifests itself, either total deflation and a debt-liquidating depression or a hyperinflationary blow-off, David Morgan of The Morgan Report says "There's none better than gold—and silver is probably just as good—if you're worried about a crisis hedge." In the interim, David tells us in this exclusive Gold Report interview, the time might be right to build cash and watch the markets. He likes the old adage: when in doubt, stay out. But he also likes finding opportunities in undervalued and overlooked resource equities for speculative investments.

Gold is De-coupling From the Dollar Euro Exchange Rate / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Julian_DW_Phillips
Further to our piece on the €:$ Exchange rate last issue, we have found that the topic, at last, is hitting mainstream. It is always difficult to be weaned off what you thought was a reliable formula giving you the inside track on the gold price. The oil: gold relationship was a case in point. Many tried to use it as a measure of the next gold price. But in the case of the €:$ exchange rate dictating the direction of gold the consequences of following this line will shortly prove to be very expensive for Traders on COMEX and elsewhere.

Global Gold Supply / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Zeal_LLC
Last week the World Gold Council (WGC) released its highly-anticipated Gold Demand Trends (GDT) report for Q4 and full-year 2009. GDT reports contain analysis of independent data compiled by GFMS Limited detailing supply and demand trends in the global gold market. They are jam-packed with key fundamental reads that undergird gold’s secular bull.
Generally only select groups of industry stakeholders and traders are the ones who anticipate these reports. Most people couldn’t care less what they say, and if you mention WGC they’ll think you’re talking about golf. But with gold gaining mainstream popularity in recent years, GDT reports are now a lot more relevant.

Gold, the IMF, and Dirty Jokes / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Jeff_Clark
Jeff Clark, Casey’s Gold & Resource Report writes: How many IMF officials does it take to change a light bulb?
As you probably read, the International Monetary Fund announced they would proceed with selling the remaining 191.3 tonnes of gold from the 403.3 tonnes planned. The money is to be used for lending to poor countries. Lending implies the money will be repaid, which, in the case of the IMF, is a joke that isn’t funny. But that’s a topic for another day.

Gold Long-Term Fundamentals Remain Promising / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: The_Gold_Report
"Gold's positive fundamentals, the high level of investor interest in key geographic markets and global monetary economic developments promise to push the yellow metal much higher," according to Jeffrey Nichols, managing director of American Precious Metals Advisors. In this Gold Report exclusive, the leading precious metals economist outlines the reasons for gold to continue its upward trajectory—not the least of which include the ailing USD and foreign central banks' reluctance to keep buying U.S. government debt.

Is Gold About To Begin A Major Bull Move? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Ronald_Rosen
We would be hard pressed to find a more perfect non-confirmation of the high in gold bullion than the picture of failure to confirm presented by the HUI and numerous precious metal shares.

THE PRICE OF GOLD in the wholesale market fell again on Wednesday in Asia and London, erasing the final $7 of last week's 3.4% gain for US investors as the Dollar held steady ahead of Fed chairman Ben Bernanke's two-day testimony on banking reform and his zero-interest-rate policy.

Panic at the Fed or Back to Normalcy? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: F_William_Engdahl
The decision of the US Federal Reserve to raise its key interest rate was definitely not a sign of confidence in the US economic recovery or a signal that Fed policy is slowly returning to normal as claimed. It was rather a signal of panic over the weakness in US Government bond markets, the heart of the dollar financial system.
