What’s Really Driving Gold and Silver Price? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
This week a subscriber shared with me an interesting and well-written analysis. The focus was mainly relative to gold. He wondered if I might shed light on silver - based on similar parameters.
First and foremost, I do not deny the complex tertiary dynamics with regard to the movement of physical gold. I am also painfully aware of the secondary technical indicators that arise from the short-term price action.

Gold and Silver - It's ALL about The Big Picture After All / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Today I would like to focus in on the bigger picture by looking at some long term charts for the precious metal complex. I know most enjoy the action by looking at the minute charts but they're more likely to morph into something different as time goes on. On the other hand looking at the long term charts changes come much more slowly and they're less likely to morph into something else. A short term bottom on a minute chart vs a long term bottom on a monthly chart have two completely different meanings. If you see a big bottom on the monthly chart you know that the move will last more than just a few weeks or even a few months. It took a lot of smart investors with deep pockets to build out a bottoming formation that aren't going to bail out of their potions easily. Minute charts have their place in trying to fine tune and entry or exit point. They can also be used when a bigger pattern is building out with smaller individual chart patterns that end up creating the much bigger finished product. I also have a lot of ratio charts to show you that compare gold to the stock markets and some commodities.

Gold And Silver - The U.S. Is A Corporation. Precious Metals Stand In The Way / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Where have all the trillions of newly created "money" gone? Into the failed and bankrupt banking scam conducted by the elites. All world-wide monetary policy undertaken by the central banks has been for the sole purpose of protecting the failed banking financial structure, propping up the fiat currencies.
Virtually none of the newly created "money" has ever left the banking system for loans to be used for productive means. Instead, it is being used to enslave other sovereign nations, breaking them financially, then taking control of each nation, one nation at a time. Think of Ireland, Spain, Cyprus, and now Greece most prominently in the Kabuki theater known as the elite-controlled Western press. The purpose: A no escape treadmill of debt bondage and poverty. [Kabuki theater: Performance where nothing substantive gets done]

Silver - The Good News or Bad News Metal? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Excepting short term price performance, physical silver is often referred to as either the ‘good news metal’ or the ‘bad news metal’.
It’s the ‘bad news’ metal because, like gold, in times of a currency crisis it behaves more like a hedge against currency debasement or as a monetary asset.

Gold, the SDR and BRICS / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Last Monday there was a meeting in Washington hosted by the Official Monetary and Financial Institutions Forum (OMFIF) to discuss the future relationship, if any, of gold with the Special Drawing Rights[1] (SDR). Also on the agenda was the inclusion of the Chinese renminbi, which seems certain to be included in the SDR basket in this year’s revision, assuming that the United States doesn’t try to block it.

Gold Price Forecast to Become Priceless / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Over the next few years as debt, currencies and countries start to fall apart individuals will be looking to place their money where it will hold its value and buying power during times of extreme uncertainty.
If you eliminate fiat currencies which are created out of this air and are nothing more than a credit we are left with precious metals and stones. As much as we have evolved over time, we could be valuing things like gold, silver, platinum, and precious stones more so than our currency.

Imagine you could go back in time so you could buy some investment at a bargain. Many might also wish to go back in time to sell something.

Looming Bond Market Crisis Set to Improve Gold Demand / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Historically low bond yields across both the private and government sectors are reducing the margin for error when it comes to the ability of the markets to withstand a bond market shock.Global quantitative easing (QE) has seen bond yields driven to low and often sub-zero levels in many economies. The European Central Bank is currently undertaking a EUR60 billion a month euro-area bond buying programme, this is expected to last at least until September 2016. In the past Japan, U.K . and the U.S. have been very active in the past when it comes to QE to stimulate their economies and create inflation with the bond market being a key asset.

Before Gold Bugs Blaze Their Trumpets…Gold is Due for a Significant Bounce / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Gold bugs are still waiting on the great hyperinflation that will cause the U.S. dollar to fold over and send gold soaring to the heavens to the tune of $5,000.
That might have looked remotely possible in 2011 when gold almost hit the $2,000 mark… but not now.

Comex Bucket Shop and Gold Run on China Shanghai Exchange / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
The Comex is a rounding error compared to the global physical market for precious metals.
Shanghai saw 34 tonnes of gold withdrawn last week.
There are less than 18 tonnes of registered (for sale at these prices) gold in all the Comex warehouses, and very little of it sees even a changing of hands, much less withdrawn.

Which Way Will Gold and Silver Break? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Precious Metals continue to be a conundrum. While Gold has trended lower it has failed to break below $1100 as so many expect. It is very strong against foreign currencies and did not break to a new low even as the US$ index rallied from 87 to 100. On the other hand, Gold has failed to sustain any bullish momentum. The gold stocks are even more oversold and have formed some higher lows since last November. Yet, they have failed to sustain any bullish developments and are far from reaching a higher high. Only time will tell which way the sector will break and how its bear market will conclude.

Gold Price Next Move / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Peter Vogel writes: When determining if a bull move in gold is a probability, a good indicator can be found in the relationship between the junior and senior gold miners etf's. If a bull move is occurring, the junior gold miners etf (GDXJ) should show indications that it will outperform the senior gold miners etf (GDX). This implies investors are willing to take on more risk in anticipation of greater gains by taking positions in the GDXJ verses the GDX.

Gold and Silver Price Confined to Tight Trading Range / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Precious metal prices were broadly unchanged this week, confined to a tight trading range of $1210 to $1185 for gold and $16.60 to $16.00 for silver. There were several attempts by sellers to force prices to break down, but from the price action there appeared to be buyers waiting for the opportunity. The result was that yesterday gold rallied to as high as $1209 and silver to $16.50, though they closed well under these best levels when a senior Federal Open Market Committee member warned that interest rates would not remain at zero for ever. Comex volumes in gold were light though they were better in silver.

What Is Really Driving Gold Price? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
If anything, gold bulls are continuously looking to confirm their bullish outlook. Most precious metals websites are filled with stories, news and developments from the gold market, accompanied by the implication that they will drive the gold price up. Examples of this include gold coin sales, Shanghai gold withdrawals, central bank buying volumes, evidence of market manipulation, money printing volumes, velocity of money, etc.
The ongoing narrative is that there is a positive correlation between monetary stimulus and the price of gold. However, as you probably know by now, precious metals collapsed during the Fed’s QE to infinity program. The long-term gold chart (first chart below) shows that gold stabilized when the Fed started tapering and around the end of QE, which is very counterintuitive to say the least. That is not to say there is no correlation, but there is definitely not a direct correlation.

Gold Price: Year 2000 All Over Again – How Will You Play It This Time? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
Recently business and financial guru Mark Cuban wrote an article about why this tech bubble is going to be worse than the tech bubble of 2000. This made me take another look at the long term charts again, but instead of looking up the NASDAQ or the tech sector I decided to check out gold mining stocks, gold price and the Dollar index.
