Gold Bugs Have Won! / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

One of the problems faced by economic policy makers is that an impartial referee, the markets, does exist. That referee now holds up a red card. Ultimately, reality and the numbers will dominate ideology. Economic philosophy is fine, if it works. Well, the numbers are in. In the graph below are the results:

Gold and the Bear Market in Fiat Currencies / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Julian_DW_Phillips
Today, you will hear that gold is rising to record highs. You will hear talk of it entering a 'bubble' again. This is entirely the wrong perspective!

By: Money_Morning
David Zeiler writes:
Gold prices hit a record high of $1,718 an ounce in intraday trading yesterday (Monday) in response to Standard & Poor's downgrade of the U.S. credit rating, and the continuing drumbeat of dreary global economic news will keep pushing the yellow metal higher.
In fact, Money Morning Contributing Editor Peter Krauth reiterated his belief that gold prices will more than double from current levels.

An Acceleration in Gold Price Trend has Begun / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne
In recent months we've been talking and writing about a potential acceleration in Gold. The chart said we were close and in all honesty Gold has actually been in a state of gradual acceleration since the 2008 low. Furthermore, we'd noted that in most secular bull markets, accelerations usually begin in the 11th or 12th year and are totally obvious by the end of the 13th year. Given the move of the past five weeks, there is no reason to think otherwise. An acceleration in the bull market has begun and will take Gold to $2000/oz and quite a bit higher in the next 18 months.

Silver $75 Looming / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: The_Gold_Report
The new normal could be $75/oz. silver. In this exclusive interview with The Gold Report, David Morgan, editor of The Morgan Report, maps out a path for silver that could sink as low as $5/ounce (oz.) during the summer pullback and then bounce up to $75/oz. to establish a new base level. A consistent Silver Institute Production Cost Standard could help investors make smarter decisions during the coming upswing.

Silver and a Broad Market Crash / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Clive_Maund
The question that silver investors and speculators should be asking themselves this weekend is what happens if the broad market crash that began late last week continues and even intensifies as is very possible after the Standard & Poor rating downgrade of US debt that was made public, coincidentally you understand, after the markets closed on Friday.

By: Clive_Maund

By: Richard_Mills
In 1873, the Fourth Coinage Act was enacted by the US Congress. Western silver miners labeled this measure the "Crime of '73" because it stopped the printing of US silver dollars. The US had, unofficially, abandoned its bimetallic standard in favor of a monometallic one - gold.

Gold Manage to Do What the Euro Did Not? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011
By: Przemyslaw_Radomski
President Obama’s slogan changed from “Yes we can” to “Yes we cave,” as heard on one of the Late Night shows this week. It only took the threat of financial Armageddon to get both sides to work together and get the debt ceiling legislation passed. So the U.S. avoided economic disaster, as if $16 trillion in debt is not economic disaster. Congress waited until the last minute, taking an unnecessary risk in a fragile economy and engaging in political brinkmanship that has raised fears in the rest of the world that America is in for a long period of political instability that could have profound consequences for global growth, investment and diplomacy.
