Crude Oil Price Collapse Portends of Larger Monumental Rise / Commodities / Crude Oil
There is little known or written about the reason why crude oil was required to undergo a monumental collapse similar to a huge dive. This monumental collapse portends an even bigger and more monumental rise. In jest i would like to call this reason “the rule of rosen.” However, i know better than to usurp in any way those forces that are far more powerful than any mortal or collection of mortals.

With Inflation on the Horizon, Gold Prices are Ready to Rocket / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
Jason Simpkins writes: With the global economy on the mend, could gold be gearing up for another record-setting run? It sure looks that way. After peaking north of the $1,000 per ounce price level last year, gold hit a stumbling block when deflationary fears in the world's largest economy sucked the air out of commodities prices and sent hoards of investors stampeding into the safe-haven of U.S. Treasuries, and helped spawn a rebound in the U.S. dollar. Since that time, the global economic outlook - especially beyond U.S. borders - has improved, and gold prices have stabilized. The next step - many gold bulls say - is for the yellow metal to make a run for new highs.

Gold Climbs on the Back of U.S. Dollar Weakness / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
Gold: Gold continues to hold steady above the $930 level and has climbed in morning trading to $939.

Gold Mid-Year Seasonal Trend Review July 2009 / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
During the course of the year, it is always good to sit back and review the current markets you’re involved in. In this manner, one would look at the performance not only from a percentage gain or loss basis, but in the field of seasonality as well. In other words, if we are interested in the gold market, we want to see if it is following the typical script in price movement in relation to past years. Keeping an eye on seasonality will alert you to when the best chance for highs and lows to occur during the year.
