Crude Oil Price Downward Pressure / Commodities / Crude Oil

By: Mike_Paulenoff

Frankly, there are so many cross-currents influencing the markets at any given time, uncertainty clearly has the upper hand -- even when we think that new information or decisions are alleviating some of the uncertainty.

Case in point:  crude oil prices.   Is downward pressure positive for equities (for obvious reasons: i.e., the consumer gets a "tax cut"), or negative because it might reflect a serious slow down in U.S. and global economic growth (read: China demand)?

Fiat Currencies Weight in Gold, The Real Prices of Things / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Casey_Research

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleCharles Vollum, Casey Research writes: Fiat currencies the world over are being manipulated by central banks, which is distorting asset and commodity prices. Successful investing requires that investors have a good idea of what things cost and what they are really worth – and using the world's oldest and most stable form of money, gold, to compare prices is one way to get that insight.

The Value of Gold / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Submissions

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticlePaul de Sousa writes: There is much confusion today over the role of gold. It is viewed as a commodity, as an investment, as a position to be traded. But if we set aside these preconceived notions and examine why gold and precious metals are resuming their historical role as money the world over, if we establish a gold mindset, we will see that their real value lies in forming the foundation of an investment portfolio, because precious metals provide the ultimate in wealth protection.

Will Central Banks and The IMF Sell Gold Again? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Julian_DW_Phillips

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleBefore 2000, the gold markets of the world were in retreat because of the fear that central banks would unload the 34,000 tonnes of gold they held in reserves. Britain conducted the last, great sale, selling half of their reserves at the lowest price the gold market has seen since the early 1970's (and has not been seen since).

That fear was softened by the "Washington Agreement" wherein many of the world's leading central banks, (excluding the U.S. and Japan who gave their tacit blessing) agreed that they would sell no more than 400 tonnes of gold per year, for the next five years.

Silver Fundamentals and Technicals Say Be Cautious! / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Przemyslaw_Radomski

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAs it was the case in our previous essay (Will Gold Price Decline Soon or Is This Summer Really Different), let’s begin also today’s article by answering one of the questions that we’ve received from one of our Subscribers. Here is the question.

  • With the volatility in the stock market, the fears about the effect of the Greece debt crisis, “fukushima” in Japan, our various problems with housing, jobs and stunning national debt here in the U.S., I have to wonder if investors are increasingly looking to precious metals as a safe haven……in a way that might defy usually reliable quantitative measures?
  • Also, is it possible the recent detailed study and report by Standard Chartered, citing the limited supply of gold in the next few years and projecting a $5,000 per oz top, tend to drive investors into gold in a way that could defy past technicals?

By: Bob_Kirtley

There are a number of mixed opinions out there at the moment which in our opinion represents a healthy state of affairs. When we are all ‘over the top bullish’ it gives us the jitters, same goes for when the situation becomes overly bearish. Right now the bears are flexing their muscles following a correction in silver prices and the predictions for much lower silver prices sally forth.

By: Richard_Mills

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe rare earths are a group of 17 elements comprising Scandium, Yttrium, and the Lanthanides.

Gold Correction to Bring Pawnbroker Paradise / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: The_Gold_Report

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDreams of success seldom come true in the risky junior exploration sector but, assuming great success, investors have driven gold stock prices up into multiples of their true value. Judging from what they tell The Gold Report in this exclusive interview, that's how Global Resource Investors Founder Rick Rule and Exploration Insights Author Brent Cook see it. With so many stocks overvalued, they foresee a waterfall-style correction that will create what Rick might call a pawnbroker's paradise—a perfect scenario for investors who know when to take profits and when to buy back in.
