Watch Out For A Silver Breakout Higher / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Jeb_Handwerger

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAn old melody advises us to look for the silver lining whenever dark clouds appear in the blue.  There is economic and political upheaval all over the world, especially in the South China Seas.  This may directly affect the world’s supply of industrial metals such as graphite, rare earths, molybdenum and tungsten.

Today we direct our attention to an area where silver is shining.  Poor man’s gold may come into prominence shortly and provide our subscribers with possible profits.

Trade of the Year - Gold Versus Paper / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Adam_Brochert

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleI often harp on the Dow to Gold ratio, as I think it is the easiest way to see the "bigger picture" secular trend of poorly performing common stock markets (i.e. paper) relative to the free market's real money (i.e. Gold). I have been not-so-patiently waiting for a turn in this ratio back to the advantage of the Gold bulls. Well, we have now gotten to the point where I feel comfortable arguing that this ratio now is likely to provide the best trade over the next 12 months. When I say best trade, I mean the best potential reward/return relative to the risk.

Gold $2,000 Will Soon Kickstart Mining Shares / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks

By: The_Gold_Report

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe lack of excitement haunting the precious metals and mining shares markets over the past year is expected to change in the next few months, according to Michael Fowler, senior mining analyst with Loewen, Ondaatje, McCutcheon Ltd. In this exclusive interview with The Gold Report, he explains why he expects gold to finally break through the $2,000/ounce barrier in 2013 and how this should affect the mining stocks that he covers. While share prices are generally low across the board now, Fowler tells us about a few of the ones that he expects to shine bright when the market turns.

Are Central Banks Still Hoarding Gold? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Eric_McWhinnie

A new report shows global gold demand fell in the second quarter from year earlier levels. Demand in the jewellery, investment and technology sectors all posted a decline, as the average price of the precious metal remained elevated, but range-bound. While some investors were discouraged by the price action, central banks were more attracted to gold than ever before.

Gold in Stocks Bear Market / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Zeal_LLC

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWith the odds for a new stock bear growing, prudent contrarian investors are looking for bear-resistant destinations for their hard-earned capital.  Plain old cash tops the list, as it will not only preserve wealth but increase its relative stock buying power as the markets grind lower.  But why merely sideline capital if it can still be grown even during a stock bear?  Gold has proven its ability to thrive in such markets.

Last week I wrote an essay on the rising chances a new stock bear is looming.  This primarily has to do with the bull-bear cycles.  The stock markets endlessly march forward in a series of alternating bulls followed by bears.  After a bull, a bear is pretty much inevitable.  This is true at both scales of the bull-bear cycles, the great decade-plus secular moves and the smaller multi-year cyclical moves within them.

Short-term Rally in the Euro Index and Temporary Strength For Gold and Silver? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: P_Radomski_CFA

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe summer dog days are upon us leaving investors cooling off in the shade waiting for a refreshing breeze of market-moving news. They are anticipating something important that will energize the gold price for an upward move, perhaps another round of quantitative easing by the U.S. Federal Reserve that could possibly be announced at the Fed’s Jackson Hole, Wyoming annual gathering in late-August, or at the next meeting of the Fed’s Federal Open Market Committee in September. Several U.S. economic reports released Wednesday failed to significantly impact the precious metals.

Gold Price Disillusionment / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Jan_Skoyles

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe markets are holding on for more quantitative easing (QE). This is what we keep hearing. Every day we hear reports of the gold price still maintaining its narrow ‘trading range’ of the last month. In fact, since May it hasn’t broken out of the $100 trading range.

Things don’t seem to be getting any better, the markets are still demanding more action, banks are asking for more liquidity, bailouts still seem to be the only medicine for the PIIGS and the central banks are mulling about what to do next.

Weak Second Quarter For Linn Energy Not A Cause For Concern / Commodities / Natural Gas

By: Elliot_H_Gue

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleLinn Energy LLC’s (NSDQ: LINE) second-quarter results fell short of expectations, prompting management to reduce its full-year forecast for distributable cash flow (DCF). The limited liability company (LLC) generated $0.70 per unit in DCF, which fell slightly short of the declared quarterly payout of $0.725 per unit. In contrast, Linn Energy covered its payout by 114 percent in the first quarter.

Despite these disappointing results, the firm grew its hydrocarbon output by 76 percent from a year ago, to 630 million cubic feet equivalent per day. Much of this upside stemmed from the integration of new acquisitions, though Linn Energy also posted solid production increases in core operating regions such as the Permian Basin and the Granite Wash.

By: Eric_McWhinnie

Over the past three months, gold has been in a tight trading range between $1,540 and $1,640. However, several well-known hedge funds recently made large moves regarding the safe-haven asset.

Gold and the Middle East Crisis / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Clif_Droke

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe year 2012 has been relatively peaceful compared with the past 10 years. The lack of military aggression on the part of the U.S. has led many to believe that the America's days of military adventures are over. But as we'll see here, 2012 is simply a temporary respite in a longer-term "theater" of war that has only just passed the opening act.

The past decade has indeed been one of near constant strife and turmoil. Starting with 9/11 and the U.S.-led NATO invasion of Afghanistan, and later Iraq, the 10 years between 2001 and 2011 were characterized by ceaseless warfare. The military invasions in the Middle East have been followed by civil and military uprisings in Egypt, North Africa and elsewhere in the region. By contrast, 2012 might be styled a "quiet" year for the Mideast. A withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq began in mid 2009 and formally ended in late 2011.
