When To Buy Gold And Silver / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Bob_Clark
Gold and silver are falling. Two of the most over loved, overbought markets on the planet, are going down. What fortune awaits the holders of these barbarous relics. Will they go the way of oil, after it reached $145 and was never supposed to see $100 again, let alone $30.00. Is another crash like we saw in 2008 coming? Have the inflationist made the mistake of their lives?

Gold and Silver Enter a Higher Risk, Higher Return Potential Zone / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Przemyslaw_Radomski
2011 is sure to be a critical year for gold with several analysts predicting an end of the bull market. It may sound very strange, but it appears that the USD Index has been leading the way for precious metals and suggests higher prices are likely to be seen soon. The general stock market may enter a consolidation phase in the near-term but has had little influence on gold, silver and mining stocks recently.

Silver Vulnerable After Steep Uptrend Breakdown / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Clive_Maund
Silver is now looking vulnerable as last week it clearly broke down from its steep uptrend in force from last August, after making new highs at the turn of the year. As we know from experience, when silver breaks down things can turn ugly fast, and technically the only thing that has preventing it from plunging thus far following the trendline failure has been the support level in the $28 area near to its rising 50-day moving average.

Gold on the Verge of Going into Correction Mode / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Clive_Maund
The rally in gold in the final trading days of December was unable to make new highs, and now it is on the verge of going into correction mode. On the 6-month chart we can see how, after a sharp drop on Monday, gold just held key support at $1360 from Wednesday through Friday. If this support should fail soon, which looks increasingly likely, then gold can be expected to go into retreat.

Not Owning Gold is a Form of Insanity / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: GoldCore
Gold remains well supported in all major currencies this morning, especially the euro, pound, yen and the New Zealand and Australian dollar.

Gold Outlook 2011: Irreversible Upward Pressures and the China Effect / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Nick_Barisheff
Good afternoon. It is a pleasure to return to the Empire Club to discuss the outlook for gold and precious metals in 2011. I know this may appear to some to be an enviable job—getting to speak about the one asset class that seems to continually out-perform all others year after year—but it is a double edged sword.

Mainstream Hacks Deny Gold its Fundamentals / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne
Yesterday I came across a clip from one of the business channels. The discussion was about “king dollar” and Gold. (The king dollar probably gives it away). Anyway, one of the guests quipped, “I’m on record that Gold is a dumb trade. It is rising based on fear and confusion and when that subsides, the Gold trade ends.”

New Year’s Resolutions for Your Gold Portfolio / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Jeff_Clark
Jeff Clark, BIG GOLD writes: It's exciting to think we may be nearing a mania in gold. The price will likely double or more within a 12-month period not too far in the future (it rose 125.7% in 1979). And yet, amazingly, there will be investors who lose money in that run.
How? Chasing returns. Jumping in and out of positions. Too emotional. Underinvested. Lack of diversification. Inappropriate expectations. Ironically, all of these are within the control of the investor.

Will the Gold Rally Last? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Merv_Burak
It seems that gold puts on a rally of sorts at the end of the year. The big question always is “will it last?” It seems that this year it may not last but the action is still not all that bearish so there is hope that the down side will be short.

By: Przemyslaw_Radomski

The first streak ended in 2002 with 124 trading days and the second in 2008 with 143 trading days. No bull market goes up in a straight line.

Will Gold, the Dollar or the Euro Collapse? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Julian_DW_Phillips
Right now, the markets have pulled gold back in the face of what seemed to be an upward turn in the U.S. economy. Many may feel this is the time to sell gold. The growing Eurozone debt crises could spell the end of the euro as we know it. The debt problems of the U.S. are worse than Europe so it is a time to ask, "Will these three forms of money collapse?"

Real Silver Highs / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Zeal_LLC
Thanks to its awesome autumn rally, silver has become something of a rock star in the commodities world. Investors and speculators alike are enthralled with this white metal. But with it just hitting new 30-year highs, many on Wall Street suspect silver is stretching to bull-ending extremes. However once silver’s modern history is recast into real inflation-adjusted terms, this metal’s secular bull is still looking young.
