Celebrating the Creation of a Government Agency Dedicated to Making Gold More Valuable / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Ned_W_Schmidt
We seem to have missed the celebration. Forget Christmas. Forget New Year's Eve. 23 December was the big day, and we should have all been partying. What should we have been celebrating on that day? On 23 December 1913 the Federal Reserve Act was passed by the U.S. Senate, creating the most monumental mistake of governance in 97 years.

For example, the special issue of Fortune Magazine Investor's Guide 2011 had a glimmering stack of gold coins on the cover with a headline “Gold Gone Wild.”

Forecast, Silver Will Be Worth More Than Gold / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Mac_Slavo
It’s shiny, it’s fairly rare, and it has been the world’s de facto reserve currency anytime the S has hit the fan historically. Though it has been prized by civilizations since before recorded history, it’s no secret that there is really no meaningful use for the precious metal gold in comparison to the widespread use of many other metals. Once it is mined it is essentially fabricated into gold bars, coins, jewelry or, at times, sprinkled onto exquisitely expensive desserts in five star Manhattan restaurants.

By: Adrian_Ash
This year marked a step-change in the nature of gold investment demand...

By: Anthony_J_Stills
I have been watching recent developments around the world with considerable interest. There are renewed riots in Greece, new demonstrations in Italy, a growing divide between citizens and government in Ireland while tensions in Spain and Portugal increase daily. Also there are new developments in Belgium, Hungary and Poland as the debt disease spreads its own deadly version of the famous “green shuts” that have yet to materialize in the United States.

Gold's 2011 Bullish Outlook as US at Risk of Joining Eurozone in Debt Crisis / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: GoldCore
Gold is up slightly after yesterday's 0.5% gain and appears to be consolidating just below $1400/oz. Gold is being supported by growing energy and food inflation and continued sovereign debt concerns. Recent days have seen the cost of insuring French debt rise to record levels and France's AAA rating is now at risk due to the spreading Eurozone debt contagion. Nor is the US immune to the debt crisis as many US cities are at risk of defaulting in 2011 (see news below). Gold may be anticipating problems in this regard in 2011 - as it has done in recent years.

By: Rosanne_Lim
Starting January, American workers will start to see changes in their paychecks as the Social Security tax break that was signed into law last Friday takes effect. Workers normally allocate 6.2% of their wages to Social Security on the first $106,800. This will be reduced to 4.2%. The Social Security tax cut is just one part of the package that was passed. Additional measures include extending benefits for the long-term unemployed and passing a lower tax rate for inheritance above $10 million (from the proposed 45% to 35%).

Silver Gold Ratio Reversion to the Mean / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Zeal_LLC
Silver has been a rock-star in recent months, rocketing higher to dazzling gains. After such a blistering near-vertical ascent, technicians understandably fear this metal has become wildly overbought. Nevertheless, an alternative perspective on silver’s recent levels counters its extreme technicals. Compared to gold, its primary driver, silver actually looks reasonably-priced today.

Outlook for Gold and Silver During 2011, Will the Rally Continue? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Przemyslaw_Radomski
Gold has gained 26% this year, putting it on track for its third double-digit gain of the last four years. To chart gold’s price movements since 2000 take a piece of paper and draw an outline of an imaginary mountain slope (think Everest) with a few footholds to rest on the steep way up. There is still a long way up before you can plant the flag at the top.

Silver Price Forecast Rise to $40/oz in 2011 and $400/oz by 2015 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: GoldCore
Gold has fallen in dollars but is flat in sterling and euros this morning. Moody's has cut Spain's debt rating on contagion concerns which has seen the euro fall. Germany's opposition to further government financed aid is leading to tensions with the ECB, which is itself now under financial pressure and may need an increase in capital if it is to continue buying sovereign European debt.

Six MORE Forces to Push Gold Higher into 2011 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Sean_Brodrick
Gold recently logged a 25% gain so far this year, and many people think it’s time to bank gains and head for the benches. While I’m never opposed to grabbing nice gains, I think there are much NICER gains to come in gold.
I can give you a list of forces I’ve told you about before — lack of new supply, new and surging demand from gold ETFs, the world’s central banks switching from net sellers to net buyers, and more.
