Gold Breakdown Below $800 - What is Happening? / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: David_Vaughn
Well, gold has broken through the 800 barrier and climbed as high as 845. What gives? Why is gold moving on like this? I can say it a hundred times but never enough times really. This is not about gold. Gold is merely a barometer.
True, the gold barometer has been broken for a long time due to intervention by others. But I believe that barometer is back together again and in working order. As always gold merely reflects the circumstances around it. By the way. It looks like 800 just may become the new floor price for gold and not its ceiling.

Gold and Silver Correction is Normal and Necessary for the Bull Market to Continue / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Clive_Maund
Although yesterday's reaction may have seemed severe, it is was actually perfectly normal, and served to bring things off the boil, which is necessary if the larger uptrend in gold and silver is to continue. We were expecting trouble last week on the site when it was made clear that the dollar was deeply oversold and gold was extremely overbought, and it was advised to take profits in most Traded Options (Calls) - and it was further pointed out that impending weakness would provide an excellent opportunity to increase positions in big gold and silver stocks, especially those that had run away and become ridiculously overbought, and big golds especially, such as Newmont, got hammered yesterday.

Gold Falls Sharply in Europe / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Gold_Investments
GoldGold was down $3.10 to $832.10 per ounce in New York on Friday and silver was up 1 cent to $15.48 per ounce. Gold was up some 3% last week and silver surged by over 6%.
In Asian and European trading both have sold off and gold is down to $815 per ounce at 1230 GMT. Profit taking, a fall in oil prices and tentative dollar strength are likely the primary reasons behind this much anticipated correction. Gold will likely find good support at the psychological level of $800 per ounce.

Weekly Gold and Silver Technical Analysis Report - Gold Technically Strong / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Merv_Burak
Gold just keeps on trucking but Wednesday may have been a critical day. Read on to find out why.
SIMPLICITY
If you can't make it simple then it ain't worth making. So said a wise old man -- but I know not who. Anyway I try to follow that motto as best as I can in these commentaries. That is also a major reason I am a technician. Technical analysis can be very simple (but too many try to make it difficult). On the other hand, fundamental analysis is just difficult -- just difficult. My hat off to those who can master it and are able to profit from it.

Gold and Silver Analysis - Judgments Affirmed! / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Joe_Nicholson
Rising metals prices … tend to erode the credibility of fractional reserve lending and fiat currency. In all likelihood the FOMC would lower rates again if further calamity befell financial markets or the larger economy, but in the near term at least ... a battle being waged between anti-inflationary forces with the Fed in one camp, and broker/banker forces allied with major media attempting to force another cut on the other could talk down commodities. Currency arbitrage that lifts the dollar off its lows for a time might give the precious metals rally a breather. Targets in gold now range up to $845, and $15.80 in silver. In the interest of sustainable gains, perhaps a little retesting might be in order, at least the $800 level, to check for a possible floor there.Read full article... Read full article...

Central Bank Gold Sales Agreement / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Julian_DW_Phillips
In the week ending 26 th October 2007, the decrease of €126 million in gold and gold receivables reflected sales of gold by two Eurosystem central banks (consistent with the Central Bank Gold Agreement of 27th September 2004) of 7.25 tonnes approximately.
What looks to be persistently high gold sales by the signatories of the Central Bank gold Agreement in the first month of the fourth year of the five year agreement, we contemplate what lies ahead for the agreement and the sales from there. It would seem that the Swiss are the larger of the two sellers, with either the French or the European Central bank as the other seller.

Will Gold Hold On To Its Gains? / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Christopher_Laird
With gold ratcheting up to new highs in the $800's, we may easily see $850 and even $900 very soon. Oil is going out of sight, but there are some good fundamental reasons – like Yemeni pipelines blowing up, North Sea shutdowns, the ever present new manifestation of Mid East turmoil – and a Pakistani political crisis as they impose state of emergency measures. Of course with all this profit in the gold complex right now, some profit taking and consolidation is quite possible before $900. Read full article... Read full article...
