Gold Bearish Double Top Pattern? / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Roland_Watson
The following is taken from our regular weekend update to subscribers. The main question for precious metals investors this week is whether gold is about to form a massive double top. If we pull up the gold chart we have shown on several occasions, we see gold is just about to meet the upper channel line we have suggested it will be bounded by. And guess what? It meets the old NYMEX high of March 17th this week coming. Can anyone say " double top "? The last time gold hit $1000 (March 16th) it peaked the next day and the rest was history.

Precious Metals Stocks Lagging Performance About to End... / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks
By: Clive_Maund
Alot of subscribers have been perplexed by the relatively miserable, laggardly performance of Precious Metals stocks in recent days as gold and silver have soared, especially against various major world currencies. This is one thing which is easy to explain - they have been held in check by a massive wall of overhanging supply that dates back to the extensive trading around the current price for much of 2006 and 2007, which we have looked at earlier on the 4-year chart for the HUI index.

Money Printing Means that Gold Will be the Last Man Standing / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: The_Gold_Report
The Gold Report caught up with newsletter writer and commentator Lou Paquette, who launched the website Emerging Growth Stocks in 1995 to provide investors and speculators with a unique alternative to what he saw was a growing problem with corporate governance and conflict of interest on Wall Street. He believes that as people finally begin to realize that gold is the only asset we can count on any more, the bull market will "come out of its shell." He shares some of his favorite mining companies that are well-positioned to ride out these turbulent times. Read full article... Read full article...

Brazil's Ethanol Madness Exposed / Commodities / Ethanol
By: Submissions
Robert Bryce writes: For years, the US has been inundated with claims that it should follow Brazil's lead on biofuels. These arguments have largely been made by a small, but influential group of neoconservatives who claim that the US should quit using oil altogether. They claim that using more ethanol – produced from sugar cane, or corn, or some other substance – will impoverish OPEC and America will once again be returned to prosperity. Read full article...

That very day the HUI gold-stock index rallied 2.6%. Read full article... Read full article...

“How To Preserve Wealth During Crises... And Why Central Banks Are Bad For Your Financial Health”

Gold Busting Back Above $1000 as Stocks Resume 2009 Crash / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Mark_OByrne
Gold has rallied strongly again this morning and is up 1.5% at $990/oz after consolidating around the $975/oz mark yesterday. Stock markets are under severe pressure again this morning after yesterday’s 7 year low close for the Dow Jones.
There is a risk here of a panic sell off in stock markets and the next leg down in the stock bear market looks imminent as the ills of the global financial system virulently infect the global economy. While gold has become overbought in the short term, its medium and long term fundamentals are as sound as ever.

Dow/Gold Ratio 40year Cycle and the Secular Depreciation of Fiat Currencies / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Ashraf_Laidi
With gold prices only 7% away from their record highs and the main equity indices 45-50% below their highs, an analysis of the equity/gold ratio is amid the many rationalizations for prolonged gains in the precious metal. The equity/gold ratio highlights a commonly used measure of corporate market value versus a decades-long measure of real asset value. Gold is known as a measure of real assets value because of its ability to preserve value during inflationary times. But during these disinflationary times, the current global growth/demand landscape also supports the notion of too many dollars chasing too few gold ounces. Read full article... Read full article...

Not all Commodities are Treated Equal (Part 1) / Commodities / Resources Investing
By: Oxbury_Research
I wouldn't be letting the cat out of the bag if I mentioned that I'm a commodity bull in both the near and long terms. It's no secret as I've spent a number of issues of Bourbon and Bayonets writing on the driving fundamentals behind resource markets. That's not what I'm here to do today and if you'd like to hear some of the market commentaries refer to prior articles. Identifying the fundamentals is one thing. Investing to profit is another. Regardless of your investment medium, there are a number of different strategies and notions to keep in mind in playing the rest of this commodity bull run. Read full article... Read full article...

Global Financial Crisis Driving Gold Higher in All Currencies / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Christopher_Laird
In the latest manifestation of the world financial crisis, gold is rallying strongly now in all major currencies. Gold detached from the usual commodity drivers gradually over the period August 07 to the present, and closely reacted to any major new developments in the credit crisis. Gold now is almost totally dominated by ongoing credit crisis developments, and the massive attempts to bailout the financial system in every country. That is why gold and the USD are rallying together. Read full article... Read full article...
