Gold And Silver Price No Defined Bottom / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Michael_Noonan
Despite a decent rally in both gold and silver over the past 7 trading days, [TDs], both remain
in bear market conditions, overall. This should hold true for however many more months,
or years that the war-breathing, fiat-issuing federal United States government can retain
its control. Despite the fact that the numbers of people who recognize the utterly corrupt
nature of Western governments, led by the US and willingly abetted by the UK and Germany,
those in control still remain in control.

Developing Gold Market Situations - Stock Market Meltdown... / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Michael_J_Kosares
As you can see in the chart below, even as we are consistently reminded that the stock market is trading at record highs, gold remains the best performer on the year thus far -- better than Treasuries, the euro, commodities, farmland, NASDAQ and the Dow Jones Industrial Average, better even than silver. The nearly 10% appreciation in the price began under what we believe to have been oversold conditions at roughly $1200 per ounce. Much of the early year upward price adjustment had to do with investors globally taking advantage of the oversold market. Over the first six months of the year, we have enjoyed a steady increase in business at USAGOLD. Many of the same clients who purchased gold in the $300 to $600 range in the late 1990s and early 2000s are buying now. It has been a good year for gold thus far, but what about the rest of 2014? At USAGOLD, we are monitoring three developing situations that we believe could have a profound impact on gold demand during the remainder of the year -- driving forces that could provide impetus for a classic gold run that could begin with a summer surprise. . . . .

Should Anything Replace The 'Gold Fix'? Where Next? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Julian_DW_Phillips
Since the Barclays trader was found guilty of manipulating gold prices and Barclays fined $44 million, the entire "Fixing" process has come under the spotlight. The bankster involved is thought to reflect one or maybe other 'rogue' traders, not a condemnation of the whole process of the "Gold Fix" by the banking fraternity.

Trading the Ratios and Swapping Gold for Silver / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Dr_Jeff_Lewis
Primary gold investors versus silver investors are not exactly alike.
Swapping gold for silver is a trade always worth considering, especially when the ratio blows out as wide as it is now. Portability is one obvious reason for the reverse, as long as premiums match up in the transaction. But the main advantage to this kind of swap is that silver almost always tends to cover more ground percentage-wiser and faster when it is allowed to move in a significant way.

Gold and Silver Price Building a Base / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Alasdair_Macleod
It is three weeks since the managed money category on Comex placed their biggest bet ever recorded in recent times that silver was going lower, and also bet big-time that gold would sink below $1200. As is often the case when traders are so commonly committed to a price outcome they end up nursing some painful losses.

Inane Bloomberg - Yellen's Fading Gold Rally / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Mike_Shedlock
Bad economic analysis abounds. Some of it is so bad you wonder if the authors understand how any markets work, not just the topic of discussion.
For example, please consider Gold Euphoria Won’t Last With Yellen’s Rally Fading, a truly remarkable exercise because it took three Bloomberg writers to produce.

NAV Premiums of Certain Precious Metal Trusts and Funds - Silver Holds Its Level / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Jesse
There is little question that a major short interest position in silver that had built up in the first part of this year was taken out and pummeled by the power players in the market. Gold was also oversold on paper, but not to the extent of silver.
Today is a quiet options expiration so far, probably because of this. The urge to sell silver by going short has been tempered by the beating administered to those who went a bit too far in their antics.

Is Silver the Cure for Silver Prices? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Bob_Kirtley
Background
There are a numerous contributing factors to be taken into consideration before making an investment in silver such as: supply and demand, industrial usage including solar panels, decorative jewelry, and short and long trading opportunities, price manipulation, various metrics such as silvers relationship to gold, the DOW Industrial Index, etc. The list of uses is huge and growing, so today we will look at just one of them which we think is important; the medical uses of silver.

Gold Price - Ah, the Power of Mean Reversion / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Frank_Holmes
The chatter last week was gold. The precious metal flew up $45 an ounce on Thursday, surprising investors, the media and markets alike.
If we look back just six months ago, gold was sitting at record lows, signaling that it was in extremely oversold territory. This was the time that many investors let fear take over and dismissed the fundamental reasons for owning gold: as a portfolio diversifier and store of value.

Few Believe Gold Price Can Shine / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Submissions
Bob Loukas writes: Considering that Gold has risen $80 off its low and the precious metals Miners have screamed higher, it's surprising how little bullish cheering we've heard. My discussion forum, Bull & Bear Talk, is very sensitive to Gold, but has barely seen an uptick in traffic during this move. In past moves out of Investor Cycle Lows, Bull and Bear Talk has had an immediate surge in traffic and a significant rise in the number of excited posts.

Gold Bugs’ Hearts Are Beating Faster / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: John_Rubino
Last Thursday was the kind of day that precious metals investors have been waiting (and waiting and waiting) for. Gold and silver popped 3.5% and 4.8% respectively and the junior miners, which have been universally unloved lately, took off. Some more-or-less random examples:

Gold And Silver - Western World Is Upside Down / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Michael_Noonan
In a break from a thematic undertone to link to gold and silver, here are some ramblings that are more underpinnings to the core problems that have left people unfocused and dealing with symptoms, no matter how they may seemingly appear to be core issues.
What makes sense any more? In the United States, all one hears in the news is lies, deceit, and propaganda. In the EU, Mario Draghi "dictates" what is [un]real, backed by a host of unelected, non-representative NWO bureaucrats. In the UK, do not know if anyone is really in charge. Regardless, there is no truth being told, in fact, the truth is actively being hidden and/or suppressed. Governments are circling the wagons against people. Banks are being protected, at all costs, literally.

By: Austin_Galt
With both gold and silver putting in big moves higher the past week, I thought it would be timely to investigate both charts and see if anything can be gleaned from them. I have used the weekly charts of both commodities to do this. Let's begin with the gold chart.
