Gold Price 2017 Trending Towards $1375 as Forecast / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2017
By: Nadeem_Walayat
The gold price hit bottom at $1124.30 on the 15th of December 2016 following which it entered an uptrend that has taken the precious metal to a recent high of $1207, all this whilst apparently many gold bugs were asleep at the wheel having publically thrown in the towel due to the failure of Gold to perform, and most recently have been busy scrambling to play catch up.

Big Gold Buying Coming 2017 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2017
By: Zeal_LLC
Gold has hit the ground running in this young new year, a stark contrast to its brutal post-election selloff. Rather remarkably, these strong recent gains accrued despite literally zero buying from one of gold’s most-important constituencies. The American stock investors who almost single-handedly fueled gold’s strong bull market last year are still missing in action since the election. That means big gold buying is still coming.
All free-market prices, including gold’s, ultimately result from the balance between popular supply and demand. When supply outweighs demand as evidenced by investment-capital outflows, gold is forced lower. That’s exactly what happened after Trump’s surprise win in early November. When investors flee gold for any reason, including chasing record-high stock markets, the resulting oversupply really hits prices.

A Bullish Case for Gold 2017 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2017
By: David_Galland
Dear Parader,
This week, I am happy to present an article by dear friend and business partner Olivier Garret, who makes the case for gold under President Trump.
While Olivier is biased, given he founded the Hard Assets Alliance, I think you’ll find his logic is sound.
My personal concern remains the strength of the US dollar. “The Super-Dollar” is the lead story in the current edition of Compelling Investments Quantified, our premium—and very profitable—monthly investment letter.

Gold and Silver Off To Shining Start to 2017 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2017
By: Jeff_Berwick
Bitcoin stole the headlines in the first week of 2017, rising nearly $200 in the first two days of the year before swiftly giving back those gains and more since.
Quietly, however, gold and silver have gotten off to an excellent start to the year.
Gold began the year at $1,154 and has rarely looked back, rising to over $1,200 on Thursday.

Gold’s Fundamental Outlook for 2017 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2017
By: Arkadiusz_Sieron
Predicting, especially the future, is very difficult. Still, let’s try to figure out what investors should expect from the gold market next year. For sure, in the long run, the price of gold will mainly depend on the U.S. dollar, the real interest rates, and the market uncertainty. How will these factors develop and affect the gold market?

Gold Is Cheap Insurance No Matter What the Fed Will Do / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2017
By: David_Galland
By Olivier Garret : Gold prices have dropped from $1,340 an ounce in September to around $1,130 as of this writing. The cause is the strengthening USD and the recent rally in the US stock market that followed Trump’s surprise victory.
Plus, most people now expect at least a few rate hikes by the Fed. Gold rarely fares well in a rising real rates environment. Many investors wonder if gold has entered a lasting bear market. Or if this is the time to buy while prices are low.

By: MoneyMetals
By Clint Siegner : Major U.S. and international banks cheat their customers and rig markets. Revelations have been piling up since the 2008 financial crisis. Hundreds of billions have been paid in fines, penalties, and settlements. The fraud, price manipulation, lying, and theft – once considered conspiracy theories – are now incontrovertible conspiracy facts.

Gold Price US$700? OR US$7000? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2017
By: Kelsey_Williams
Does either of the above preclude the other? In other words, if we expect gold to reach $7000 per ounce, and we are correct, does that mean that we can’t reasonably expect gold to go as low as $700 per ounce? Conversely, if we are predicting or expecting gold to continue its current decline, and even breach $1000 per ounce on the downside, can $7000 per ounce, or anything even remotely close to that number, be a reasonable possibility?

Now Is the Time to Face Reality and Invest in Gold / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2017
By: David_Galland
Stephen McBride writes: Since reaching multi-year highs in July, gold has plummeted 17%. Having risen 22% in the first seven months of 2016, many believed the yellow metal had moved too far, too fast.
They were right.
Gold’s fall quickened post-election, caused by an uptick in optimism about America’s future. The economy was seen as ready to “take-off” in 2017 once Trump’s pro-growth policies kicked in. The Fed’s December rate hike just added fuel to the fire.

Gold and Silver Outlook 2017 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2017
By: MoneyMetals
Clint Siegner writes: Precious metals had a wild ride in 2016, launching higher in the first half of the year and then falling much of the way back to earth in the second half. Our outlook for 2017 hinges on some of the drivers that figured prominently in last year’s trading. There are also a couple of new wrinkles.

The Gold Owner's Guide to 2017 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2017

Reversal, resurgence and renewal on the road to the new year
Read full article... Read full article...Quietly, while all attention was riveted on the U.S. election, gold made a notable comeback in 2016. The gain was not spectacular at 8.7%, but it was respectable, and it came after three straight down years. (Silver had an even better year with a 15.2% gain.) In addition and perhaps even more importantly, global investment demand registered its fourth largest increase since the 2011 post-crisis peak. That resurgence suggests that down years for gold did not temper the global inclination to own it. To be sure, these numbers in tandem represent an important turnaround for gold and a break from the near-term past. It is also perhaps the first hint that we may have turned the page from the corrective phase of the cycle to resumption of the long-term secular bull market for both gold and silver.
