By: Ben_Traynor

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleONGOING high volatility saw the gold price hit an eleven-week low of $1537 an ounce during Monday's Asian trading – a 7.2% fall from Friday's close – after gold futures exchanges in Shanghai and New York announced margin hikes for leveraged traders.

Gold D Wave Begins, Pointing Towards a November Bottom / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Toby_Connor

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleIt's taken much longer than I originally expected, but we now have confirmation that gold's D-Wave decline has begun.

A D-Wave decline is a normal, regression to the mean, profit-taking event that occurs when gold gets too stretched above the mean. It is not a take down by an anti-gold cartel. Anyone with a modicum of common sense can look at the long-term chart of gold and tell that this is not a manipulated market. This is just a normal secular bull market, and it is acting exactly like a normal bull market acts.

Huge Profits In Half Priced Silver, How To Enter Safely / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Bob_Clark

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe metals are under attack by the Fat Boys.  Bernanke has made it clear that inflation expectations must be purged from the system before any new stimulus can be started.

The last round of quantitative easing caused speculation in most commodities. The precious metals were major beneficiaries. The experts warned that the bond vigilantes would soon rain hell's fury on the debt markets. It never happened.

The Split Personality of Gasoline and Diesel / Commodities / Gas - Petrol

By: EconMatters

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleCrude oil tanked to its lowest in more than six weeks, amid a broad selloff in other commodities and equities with investors increasing fear of another global recession after the U.S. Federal Reserve warned of "significant downside risks" to the U.S. economy on Thursday, Sept. 22. Oil prices plunged $5.00 a barrel on that day, and as of Friday, Sept. 23, WTI sank to $79.96 a barrel, while the ever relentless Brent also retreated to $103.97.

Gold and Silver Crash Generating Big Opportunity / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Chris_Vermeulen

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleA few weeks ago I wrote about how gold was starting to top and that everyone should expect a very sharp drop to the low $1600 area. How I came to this conclusion was though the use of inter-market analysis combining price patterns, gold futures volume, the dollar index and market sentiment. This allowed me to understand what the majority of other traders/investors were thinking and feeling. By knowing each of these market variables and crowd behavior I can accurately see into the future a few days with a high probability of success and most importantly with low downside risk.

The Gold Tsunami Wave Cycle / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: GoldRunner

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe Gold (and Silver) bull continues to closely follow the giant wave formation of a tsunami. The recent more parabolic rise in Gold up to above $1,900 is analogous to the little ridge of water we first saw way out in the distance, and now, much like when the waters recede from the shore early in the tsunami wave formation, Gold is undergoing a correction.

Why Gold's Decline is Accelerating? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: DK_Matai

Best Financial Markets Analysis Article"The era of procrastination, of half-measures, of soothing and baffling expedients, of delays, is coming to its close. In its place we are entering a period of consequences."

That was Churchill in a speech to the House of Commons at the Palace of Westminster in London on November 12, 1936, as the clouds darkened over Europe. Dark clouds are hovering once again in regard to the euro, eurozone sovereign defaults and an interlinked banking crisis. More than $3.4 trillion has been erased from global equity markets last week, sending a prominent world index of shares into bear market territory, on concern that governments are running out of tools to avert another deep recession.

Gold and Silver Liquidation Panic / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

Best Financial Markets Analysis Article"Yesterday, the textbook was thrown out the window. All asset classes saw sudden and sharp moves far in excess of normal volatility patterns. To an old timer, that points to one conclusion. Liquidation. Wide-spread liquidation across asset classes. Currencies, bonds, commodities and stocks all moved swiftly and sharply in a direction that screamed - Seek safety! Raise cash! Get liquid...

Glowing Prospects for Uranium / Commodities / Uranium

By: Casey_Research

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe Western world's skittishness, skepticism and staunch opposition when in comes to nuclear energy won't stand in the way of its production elsewhere in the world. It will be full steam ahead in China, India and other developing nations, says Casey Research Chairman Doug Casey, and the Western world is tiny in comparison. In fact, "I'd say uranium is a great place to be for at least the next generation," he tells us in this Energy Report exclusive. With ever-advancing technology enabling economic recovery in places where it previously wasn't possible, he's also optimistic about natural gas and oil.

Why Invest in Commodities? / Commodities / Investing 2011

By: Richard_Mills

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWe have crossed a critical threshold. The demand we are now placing on our planets resources appears to have begun to outpace the rate at which they can be supplied.

The gap between human demand on our planet's resources and the supply of those resources is known as ecological overshoot. To better understand the concept think of your bank account - in it you have $5000.00 paying monthly interest. Month after month you take the interest plus $100. That $100 is your financial, or for our purposes, your ecological overshoot and its withdrawal is obviously unsustainable.

Is Gold really a safe haven in times of crisis? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Sam_Chee_Kong

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe price of gold varies inversely with certainty. The more uncertain the environment, the higher the price of gold because people will scramble for gold as a hedge against uncertainty.  However, certain events for the past two weeks have baffled many of us. A couple of  weeks ago, when Switzerland pegged its CHR (Swiss Franc) at 1.20 to the Euro, it immediately devalued its currency by about 8%. Since then, the Swiss Franc often viewed as the safe haven among other currencies, has lost its luster.

Gold and Silver Plunge along with Stocks amid "Full Blown Recession" Fears / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Ben_Traynor

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleU.S. DOLLAR gold prices fell again on Friday, falling to a seven-week low below $1700 as world stock markets continued to slump – as did industrial commodities – while the zero-yielding Dollar and Yen currencies continued to rally.

Ministers of the G20 group began their weekend meeting to address the Euro crisis. This Sunday marks the 80th anniversary of Great Britain being forced to formally abandon the Gold Standard in 1931.

Now is the Season for Investing in Gold-mining Stocks / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleJon D. Markman writes: If you're not investing in gold-mining stocks now, you should be.

Why now?

Analysts at TIS Group reminded me last week that not only are gold-mining stocks very cheap now versus gold bullion, but this also happens to be the best time of the year to buy the stocks.

Gold and Silver Stocks Maintain Long-Term Support / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks

By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleNow that we are past the Fed circus we can get back to reality. But what is reality? Is it inflation? Deflation? A repeat of 2008? What matters is the message of the markets and the correct interpretation of the message. With regards to the mining stocks we are seeing a stark contrast relative to the rest of the stock market. This positive divergence has been strengthening and remains well intact despite Thursday’s sudden Fed-induced selloff.

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleRemember Lehmans? Even the smart people get whacked in a financial crash...

PEOPLE THINK the gold price always goes up in a crisis, right until they find out it doesn't. And the reason that this now feels so much like the Lehmans collapse of three years ago is that, looking at the numbers alone, you'd think it was autumn 2008.
