Why Gold Stocks Are the Best Income Opportunity of 2013 / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2013
By: DailyWealth
Jeff Clark writes: Last year, I made an outrageous prediction...
I said gold stocks would be the best income opportunity of 2012. The stocks were so cheap, the downside risk was minimal... and the income you could collect from selling options against your shares was enough to generate enormous returns – even if the stocks didn't go anywhere.

Gold and the HUI Gold Bugs Stocks Index Update / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2013
By: Vin_Maru
In spite of the recent down turn in the price of gold and silver, we still remain bullish on precious metals and its equities. Regardless of its paper manipulated price (if you believe this is currently happening), history has shown us that gold is money (not fiat currencies) and it is no one else's liabilities. When it comes to gold, as always we suggest owning the physical metals outright fully paid for and stored safely where only you have access to it. If you have a significant holding in the physical, it may be wise to diversify your gold internationally in order to minimize country and political risk by reading Getting Your Gold out of Dodge (GYGOOD). Gold seems to be gaining strong support under $1650 which should most likely hold, so now is a great time to be adding to physical holdings.

Gold and Silver Shares: Nightmare or Investor Opportunity? / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2013
By: Dudley_Baker
The last four or five years have been a nightmare for many investors, especially those of us investors in the natural resource stocks. Even though gold and silver rallied to new highs in 2011 most shares did not follow and have in fact greatly lagged in performance.
Of course during this time there have been some companies that have performed well and were big winners but we know, as well as you, that on balance the natural resource sector has been a nightmare for investors of the shares of juniors and exploration companies. Frankly, that's putting it nicely.

Higher Low in Place for Gold Stocks as 2013 Beckons / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2013
By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne
With all of the volatility of the past nine months, few market observers would think the gold equities have begun a series of higher lows or even a new bull market. However, this action is typical of this sector. GDX first formed a low in May followed by a double bottom low in July. From that point, GDX gained 35% in only two months! After three months and a pullback of 20%, the gold stocks are pushing higher once again and have a chance at a tremendous 2013.

Gold bullion, gold stocks or no gold at all?
I put that question to Real Asset Returns Editor Peter Krauth last week.
You see, there's a lot of interest in investing in gold right now. Or perhaps I should say that there's a lot of interest in what gold might do.

GDX Gold Miners At a Low! / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2013
By: Darah_Bazargan
The history of the stock market reveals how specific patterns come into being, and how it influences subsequent behavior. Pattern sequences of a previous time are reborn and under the right circumstances, can identically repeat. It is simply a reproduction of how investors are behaving collectively at two different points in time. But knowing that a pattern has a particular script it follows can constitute a path that holds (or leads to) a likely outcome!

Gold Stocks Secondary Bottom Soon, Bullish Trend 2013 / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2013
By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne
I have to admit, I never saw the gold stocks correcting this much. After making a textbook double bottom and registering very strong momentum readings, I expected a relatively tame October correction to be followed by another leg higher into year end. I thought GDX would bottom at $49. Obviously I was wrong on all counts. It’s difficult to make predictions when they are about the future. Kidding aside, forecasts are only a guide or a potential road-map. No one can predict the future. However, we can assess risk, reward and probabilities. We think the current probabilities favor a secondary bottom in the gold stocks and very soon the risk/reward dynamic will be heavily in favor of longs.

By: The_Gold_Report
Smart companies are beginning to ignore analysts' insistence that production growth is always good, and to focus instead on growing their margins by lowering capital expenses. This is good news to U.S. Global Investors Inc.'s Brian Hicks, co-manager of the Global Resources Fund, and Ralph Aldis, senior mining analyst and portfolio manager of the Gold and Precious Metals Fund and World Precious Minerals Fund. Learn what kinds of companies attract the interest of these active managers in this Gold Report interview.
The Gold Report: The Nov. 1 edition of Frank Talksuggested that gold equities generally perform poorly in a U.S. election year but rebound strongly the following year. Do you expect a better year for gold and gold equities in 2013?

Gold Stocks Bullshine Investing / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2013
By: Richard_Mills
In 2001 and 2002 miners were producing gold for sub-$180 cash costs - the operational cost of the mine divided by the ounces of production. By 2005 cash costs had risen 45 percent to US$250. Data from GFMS shows world gold production costs for the first half of 2009 averaged $457/oz. Average cash costs in 2011 were US$657.
According to the Thomson Reuters GFMS’s Gold Survey 2012 global gold mine production was flat (output rose 0.1 percent to 1,366 metric tons) in the first half of 2012. The average grade of ore processed globally dropped 23 percent from 2005 through the end of last year and is forecast to decline another four percent in 2012.
