Gold Price Trend Forecast / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Now that Gold has pushed to a three month high, it's clear that my bullish read of the Gold tape is at least partially correct. In the face of recent negative price action, I had managed to remain cautiously bullish given Gold's position in a new Inv7estor Cycle - it was far too early for Gold to be rolling over, even if it remained locked in an extreme bear market. But now, after this week's action, Gold is in a much better position, and with the possibility of upside ahead. (Glossary of Cycle terms)

Silver Price Projections For 2020 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
I recently published an article projecting possible prices for gold in the year 2020 based on the S&P 500 Index and the ever increasing population adjusted US national debt. I assumed three scenarios and three different gold projections. Time will tell regarding gold prices, but what is nearly certain is that national debt will exponentially increase. Further, over 30 years, the sum of the S&P and gold have increased similarly to the population adjusted national debt.

China Stockpiles 30,000 Tons of Gold to topple US Dollar / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
China is waiting for the right moment to remove the US dollar from economic reign. Once the US dollar loses its leadership, China plans to make the yuan world's first currency.
According to Duowei News, to ensure its domination, China is saving up gold. According to unconfirmed reports, China already has about 30,000 tons of the precious metal. If this is true, it means that China will be capable of brining the US dollar down in an instant.

Gold, Silver Distorted Markets, Financial Sophistry, and Moral Hazard / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
There was intraday commentary here that included an interesting perspective from the audacious one percent and their enablers.
And there was another about the current state of political discussion in Britain, a recent awkwardly stated reflection by the Prime Minister that may have revealed the mindset of their powerful, and its possible relationship with the continuum of politics and 'statism' here.
Oddly enough, both seem to have some implications for another question that was raised by a reader who shared this from another site. It was in reference to a posting earlier this week at Le Café that showed that the number of potential claims on actual available gold at the Comex was back to a record high.

Gold And Silver - Elite's Game Of Jenga In Place. Your Move / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Last week, we addressed how China's growing leadership and economic dominance is raising more questions than answers. A Part II, of some sort was planned, but instead, the focus is on the ultimate reptilian society builders, aka the New World Order. By reptilian, we mean cold-bloodedly treacherous, a rather apt description of the stealth and essentially invisible movers of the world.
There was a disturbing comment made by NWO-sycophant Harlan K Ullman, a high-level advisor to major Western world policy makers. In his myopic but upper echelon pervasive point of view [POV], it is not rising powers like China and Russia that pose the biggest threat to the NWO [New World order], but "non-actors" like Edward Snowden, Bradley Manning. We will add Julian Assange, among the better known, and include all other anonymous "hackers" who actually pose a more direct threat to the Westphalian system because they are encouraging individuals to become self-empowered, eviscerating state control.

Silver Buying Only Starting / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Silver has enjoyed a fantastic week, awakening from its bottoming slumber to surge with gold. And this strong silver investment demand is likely only starting. American stock traders and futures speculators control two of the world’s largest pools of capital active in the silver market. And the former group still remains woefully underinvested in silver, while the latter still has massive short positions left to cover.
The global leader in fundamental silver analysis is the venerable Silver Institute, a think tank primarily funded by the world’s biggest and best silver miners. Every year, it publishes excellent comprehensive data on global silver supply and demand. Last year, total worldwide silver demand ran 1067m ounces. But investing in silver coins, bars, and ETFs only accounted for 197m, less than 1/5th of total demand.

Gold and the Trouble with Cash / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
When interest rates are zero and it costs a bank to look after your money it becomes an unattractive asset. Banks in some jurisdictions (such as Switzerland, Denmark and Sweden) are even charging customers interest on cash and deposits. And if you go to your bank and withdraw large amounts in the form of folding notes to avoid these charges you will be lucky if you are not treated as a sort of pariah. For the moment, at least, these problems do not extend to sound money, in other words gold.

What Might be behind Gold Price Jump / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Over the years, I have written occasionally about the connection between the demand for U.S. government debt and quantitative easing. My contention is straightforward. The primary determinant for quantitative easing is not, as we are constantly told, to keep the unemployment rate down, nor is it to stimulate the economy. (I emphasize the word “primary” as opposed to the word “only”) It is to support the government debt market and keep government in business – not just in the United States but wherever it is employed.

What's Next for the Gold Price? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Will gold zoom higher with Greece on the brink of default? Or will it crash as the Fed pursues an "exit?" Why has gold not rallied with the recent retreat of the dollar? To understand where gold may be heading, keep in mind that this shiny metal isn't changing; it's the world around it that is. We contemplate why investors may want to hold gold as part of their portfolio.

Gold Prices In 2020? Debt Drives Gold and Stocks / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
US National Debt: We know the progression of debt – it increases, or it increases rapidly. Since 1913 the official US national debt has increased about 9% per year – every year. Has the economy increased 9% per year? Of course not! And that is why, in truly simple terms, prices rise. The same is largely true in the UK, Europe, and Japan. It is the same old story throughout the history of other fiat currency experiments.
Prices rise for consumer goods and for gold, stocks, and almost everything else (gasoline no longer costs 15 cents nor coffee 5 cents per cup).

Gold Price Remains Range-Bound Creating A Perfect Opportunity For Scalping / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Nicholas Kitonyi writes: Over the last two months, the price of gold appears to have taken a sideways movement as it oscillated within the $1,175 and $1,220 price levels.
This is contrary to the movement witnessed from January to late March, when the price of the yellow metal recorded massive rallies and declines, at some point rising from about $1,165 an ounce to above the $1,300 level, before falling again to well below $1,150. There have been reports suggesting that gold could touch $1,300 again by May this year, but based on the current trend, that does not seem like it is going to happen any time soon.

Gold Price Target / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
A first time for everything. This week was the first time I ever went to basically cash before the jobs report was released. It’s still too early to know yet if this was a right or wrong decision depending on what the stock markets do next week. I thought I’d give it a shot as these job reports always seem to catch you leaning the wrong way especially in a sideways trading range. Today was no exception. Many times a big rally on a Friday will lead to some follow through on Monday and then we get turn around Tuesday. At any rate we have a lot of cash on the sidelines that can be put to work when the time is right.
