Gold Stocks Expected to Continue to Consolidate After Recent Gains / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Gold_Investments
Gold Gold has continued to weaken in Asian and early European trade after yesterday's nearly 1% sell off. Gold was down $8.70 in New York from $741.30 to $732.60.
Gold was trading at $729.50/ 730.00 at 1200 GMT. Gold's weakness is likely due to profit taking and the U.S. dollar continuing to strengthen and oil prices and commodities weakening on concern regarding the robustness of the U.S. economy.

Gold Facts Ignored by Bloombergs Biased and Unbalanced Article / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Gold_Investments
GoldGold has traded sideways in Asia and down in early European trading and was trading at $736.50/ 737.00.
As expected after six weeks of rising prices, gold took a well earned rest last week and was down by a marginal $1.50 for the week.
Continuing consolidation may be expected and there appears to be strong support in the low $720s. However, gold could continue to surprise to the upside as it has done previously.

Silver to Rocket on US Dollar Crash / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Clive_Maund
We succeeded in sidestepping a hefty reaction in silver early last week, but while gold has already made good most of its losses of early last week, silver has not - yet, and long positions can therefore be reinstated at a better price, although some traders may prefer to wait for the "triple breakout" referred to in the Gold Market update before going long.Read full article...

Gold and Silver Analysis - Precious Points: T-minus five, four, three … / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Joe_Nicholson
The biggest threat to metals right now is still the May 2006 highs and the perception that we could be in a corrective pattern from those levels. If so, the summer's lows in gold would have to be taken out, though probably not by much given the strength of the underlying fundamentals and the beginning of positive seasonality. The market's response to a busy week for economic data, including ISM figures, auto and truck sales, and employment reports, and the ECB meeting, will give a clearer picture by next weekend.Read full article...

Gold Break Out Expected As US Dollar Crashes Through Major Support / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Clive_Maund
We have been bullish on the broad stockmarket on the site, but short to medium-term bearish on gold and silver in the recent past and by extension gold and silver stocks, due principally to the distribution patterns that have formed in the metals and their increasingly bearish COT structure, especially gold. However, there is an inconsistency here that is becoming increasingly obvious and has led to a re-evaluation over the past couple of days. The inconsistency arises because a breakout to new highs and strong advance in the broad stockmarket, which looks very probable for reasons we will look at shortly, will almost certainly be accompanied by further heavy losses in the dollar.

Weekly Gold and Silver Technical Analysis Report - 7th Oct 07- Technically Precious with Merv / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Merv_Burak
We had a little scare earlier in the week but it may be all over now -- or is it? Will world events control the fortunes of gold or will it be the US $? Push/pull, whatever.
URANIUM
Before getting into my weekly precious metals commentary I thought I'd bring to your attention a new blog that was launched this past week. Over the past year or two I have had many readers asking questions about uranium stocks. Many have suggested that I should include a uranium commentary with these commentaries. This led to the creation of a blog that is dedicated to discussing daily and weekly activities of uranium stocks.

Gold and HUI Bull Seasonals Point to Strong Gold Bull Market Rally / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Zeal_LLC
As the nights lengthen, the leaves change color, and the chill winds of autumn begin to blow, the seasons are on everyone's mind this time of year. But it is not only these natural seasons driven by orbital mechanics that are changing. The most bullish seasonal time of the year for the precious metals and their miners is nearly upon us.
The mere fact that precious metals have seasonal tendencies is often surprising to traders. Everyone can understand why a soft commodity like wheat is seasonal. Due to the Earth's axial tilt and its annual revolution around the sun, there is one primary growing season in the northern hemisphere. Thus wheat supplies typically peak just after harvest before shrinking until the next harvest. Since the celestial seasons affect supply, and supply and demand drives prices, the Earth's seasons play a major role in wheat price trends.

Gold and Silver: You Can Trade This Bull Market / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Bob_Kirtley
What a difference a month makes! Gold closed at $731 and the HUI hit 400 , which makes the job of writing this update more of a pleasure. We will start with both the chart of the HUI and the chart of gold. Both have moved to higher ground aided by the Federal Reserve who pitched in with a 50 basis points rate cut. The US dollar weakens and gold strengthens as their inverse relationship continues.Read full article... Read full article...

Gold Forecast - Gold Price Is Being Driven By Macro-economics and Currencies / Commodities / Gold & Silver
By: Julian_DW_Phillips
We mentioned briefly in the market section at the start of this issue that there has been a change of tides, and possibly a change as fundamental as a change of current. Yes, last week will be seen in history, as an important one for the global economy and gold alongside other precious metals. We write this section because until last week the price range of gold was seen only in the context of May 2006 price ceiling of $730.Read full article... Read full article...
