German Gold Panic, What Do German Central Bankers Know That We Don’t? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Graham_Summers
Ben Bernanke and the rest of the US Federal Reserve bet the farm that they could engage in countless monetary interventions, keep interest rates at zero, and print over $2 trillion in new money without damaging the US’s credibility.
They were wrong. Indeed, Germany just fired a major warning shot to the US Federal Reserve.
On Monday, Germany announced that it will be moving a significant portion of its Gold reserves out of storage with the New York Fed and moving them back to Germany.

Germany Is Bringing It's Gold Back Home, You Should Too! / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: DailyWealth
Dr. Steve Sjuggerud writes: Germany wants its gold back...
The European nation wants to bring home 300 tons of gold currently held at the U.S. Federal Reserve and all 374 tons held at the Banque de France.
Why does Germany want all of its gold OUT of France? Legendary investor Bill Gross has a thought about that... On Twitter, he asked, could it be that "central banks don't trust each other"?

What Will Gold Do in 2013 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Jeff_Clark
As we turn the calendar over, there are probably two dominant questions on the minds of most precious-metals investors: Will gold and silver have a better year than the last two? And will gold stocks finally break out of their funk?
2012 was an interesting year for our favorite metal. On one hand, gold was up only single-digit percentages for the second consecutive year: 8.3%, after rising just 9.1% in 2011. It was also outperformed by the S&P 500 Index, though this was the first time since 2004 and only the third since 1999. On the other hand, the price has now risen 12 consecutive years, overshadowing most other bull markets in modern history.

By: Ben_Traynor
SPOT MARKET prices for gold bullion rose to a two-week high above $1680 an ounce Tuesday morning in London, before dipping back to just below that level before lunchtime, while stocks and commodities were slightly down on the day and the US Dollar ticked higher, with US policymakers continuing to disagree on fiscal matters.

Gold Investor Sentiment Plunged to 12 Month Low / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: GoldSilverWorlds
Financial Tap writes: More of the same unresolved and non-committal action out of the precious metals markets this past week. Once again gold has reached a junction which should provide us with a road-map for where gold is headed in the immediate future. One fork at this junction, the bullish fork, we’re looking at this as just Day 7 of a brand new Investor Cycle. If this were the path gold has taken, then gold must break $1,696 next week. But taking the bearish fork has us still in a 5th Daily Cycle, with multiple possibilities with regards to the actual Daily Cycle count (Day 7, 18, and 25 possible).

Why Gold and Silver Correlations Should Be Constantly Monitored / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: P_Radomski_CFA
Correlation is a useful measure - it helps us make predictions about a variety of events. But it's also a bit tricky - while there are relationships that seem stable (such as the fact that rich people tend to spend more on luxury goods than the less wealthy), there are some that do experience some volatility. These require special caution, as relying blindly on what was seen in the past without checking whether it is still true can lead to disaster.

Profit From Power Elite's Key Sector Price Inflation With Gold / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: DeepCaster_LLC
“The future price tag of printing six trillion dollars’ worth of checks comes in the form of inflation and devaluation of currencies either relative to each other, or to commodities in less limitless supply such as oil or gold.
Zero-bound interest rates, QE maneuvering, and ‘essentially costless’ check writing destroy business models and stunt investment decisions which offer increasingly lower ROIs and ROEs.”

Monetary Inflation and the Real Silver Price Highs / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Zeal_LLC
Silver bearishness has naturally mushroomed following this metal’s rough December. A growing chorus is declaring silver’s secular bull finished, implying it must have peaked after silver’s dazzling April 2011 surge. But secular bulls climax in popular speculative manias, which dwarf the silver action of a couple springs ago. Looking at silver in real inflation-adjusted terms drives home the point its bull is far from over.

The Great Gold and Silver Bull Cycle and the Money Supply / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Dr_Jeff_Lewis

Silver Investing in the Age of Sentiment and Fiat Currencies / delete / Gold and Silver 2013
By: Dr_Jeff_Lewis
Some silver investors must be wondering why hang on to their metal at this point? Perhaps the most compelling answer is inflation, since an increase in the money stock will eventually lead to higher prices.
Central banks around the world must keep printing or electronically generating money to meet the hundreds of trillions of dollars in unfunded liabilities, promises and obligations. Another factor to consider is the out of control deficit spending that trumps any revenue collected from taxes.

What do Silver to Gold and Platinum to Gold Ratios Tell Us? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2013
By: P_Radomski_CFA
We at Sunshine Profits are deeply convinced that the bullish fundamentals for the precious metals market are still in place, and are not easily put off by recent corrections. But how to tell which asset will outperform the others when the market finally starts to rally strongly? You might have noticed that we quite often use various ratios on our charts - such a technique is called Relative Strength Analysis and helps an analyst tell which of the two assets (or group of assets) is likely to do better in the future. This may be done to compare two particular assets (such as silver:gold ratio) or two groups of assets (such as the general stock market and precious metals stocks - SPX:GDX ratio).
