The European Union and Silver / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: George_Maniere
This was an amazing week! Besides the fact that we got to see some green on the board, the week was totally eclipsed by the latest off Broadway version of “The Mouse That Roared” as Slovakia took the world to the brink and for one bright shining moment held the fate of the world in its hands.

Gold Not Going Anywhere, Could Stumble Again / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Merv_Burak
In the “good old days” gold would move $10 and that was something, now it moves $50 and it’s ho-hum. Although moving higher slowly it really is not going anywhere and unfortunately looks like it just might stumble.

Gold Vs. Miners: The Wrong Question, Part 2 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Adrian_Ash
You don't need to be a gold-mining investor to wish gold would stop outperforming them soon...
WHATEVER you think of the gold price right now, gold mining stocks are a raging buy. Everyone says so. There's rarely been this strong a consensus since England were all set to beat France in last weekend's Rugby World Cup.

Gold, Gold, Gold… What About Silver? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Przemyslaw_Radomski
No good news to deliver so far this year on the eurozone. Just this week Slovakia’s government became the first in the eurozone to fall over opposition of bailing out indebted economies after the country’s parliament voted down approval for enhancing the zone’s rescue fund. Also this week, Jean Claude Trichet, European Central Bank President, warned that Europe’s financial crisis has reached “a systemic dimension.” Greece has continued to dominate the headlines and is facing a fifth successive year of recession and a possible sovereign default.

Will Gold and Silver Continue Their Run Up? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: George_Maniere
I had at least six emails today asking if the run in gold and silver were over. The answer is most definitely – Maybe!!!! My regular readers know that I have been predicting silver at $50.00 an ounce by year’s end. I believe that the drivers of gold and silver remain intact. The fact is that there is a sense that gold and silver has moved too far – too fast and as a result, people are not inclined to chase the trade.

By: Adrian_Ash
You want leverage in gold? Buy bullion. It keeps turning every 1% gain in gold mining stocks into a 2% rise...

Gold Signals The End… / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Hubert_Moolman
Gold remains our best means of economic measurement. It is not a perfect or 100% consistent measure of wealth, but it is our best. Due to its monetary properties, gold can be used to measure wealth across generations. Just like we have the sun and moon to discern the times and seasons, I believe, we have gold to discern changes in wealth. It is interesting that the sun is often compared to gold, and the moon to silver. Just like a day in the Middle Ages is comparable to a day in this century, an ounce of gold in the Middle Ages is comparable to one today.

Euroland and The Gold, Silver Price Rebound / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Jim_Willie_CB
An important reversal of focus, expectation, and direction has taken place in Europe. Put aside the sovereign debt mess that will not go away. It will not be fixed, despite all the effort and talk and deal making. They must prepare for a string of bank failures and a Greek default. Every solution executed or proposed or pending involves the same lunatic device of creating more debt or more money to solve a problem caused by too much credit creation and unchecked monetary creation. For 18 months the Euro had traded on the back of the European Central Bank monetary policy, on interest rate judgments and expectations.

Gold Not in a Bubble, On Its Way to $10,000 an Ounce / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Nick_Barisheff
"Gold is not a financial asset to be compared with dot-com stocks or Miami condos and it is not a commodity like pork bellies or crude oil. It is the ultimate currency for the truly sophisticated wealth holder in a time of substantial unreserved credit promotion." ~ Paul Brodsky (Fund Manager)
