By: Mark_OByrne
Gold and Silver Investments have partaken in the Bloomberg Precious Metals Survey (see table of forecasts below) and the Reuters Precious Metals Poll.

Gold Short-term Overbought, Against Strong Longterm Bullish Trend / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Ned_W_Schmidt
The Era of Simple Solutions continues to unfold. For every complex problem, as the wise man once said, there is a simple solution, that is wrong. Into the abyss of collapsing financial institutions rode the Federal Reserve, with a check book in each hand. The crowd went wild over this simple solution. And in response to the fundamental failure of U.S. auto companies, welfare checks were mailed to them. But yet, that is not enough. As a remedy for the economic ills brought on by the housing debt bubble, the Obama government will borrow about $2.5 trillion dollars in the coming year. One of those trillion dollars will be frittered away on Congressional pork and mailing checks to voters.Read full article... Read full article...

Gold Falls into Consolidation Zone of $830 to $890 / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Mark_OByrne
Gold has fallen again today and is down some 1% but continues to consolidate between $830/oz and $890/oz. Gold should remain well bid given the degree of international macroeconomic and geopolitical risk challenging us as we enter the New Year. The Middle East tensions continue to escalate and oil is up another 2.5% again today to some $50 per barrel again. Silver has outperformed even gold in the last 30 days and is trading very well – up nearly 17% versus gold’s rise of 12%.Read full article... Read full article...

Geopolitics to Drive Gold Prices Higher During 2009 / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Mark_OByrne
Gold has commenced the New Year as it did in 2008 – up sharply in early trading before selling off somewhat. Gold surged (along with oil) on the open in Asia on geopolitical concerns with the Israeli military offensive against Gaza escalating. However, with oil giving up some of its earlier gains and the dollar stronger against most currencies so far this morning, gold has given up its earlier gains.Read full article...

Gold and Crude Oil Trading 2009 Special Report / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Chris_Vermeulen
Gold Trading: Gold closed higher for the week with very low volume due to the holidays. It is difficult to get a feel for where stocks and commodities are headed in the near term because of this light volume. Generally during holiday season light volume favors the longs and prices generally drift higher, which is what we had last week. The charts below will show you how I see the market and how I react to these salutations. Read full article... Read full article...

Silver Technicals Point to Correction Lower / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Clive_Maund
Although silver does not look as vulnerable to a reaction as gold on the charts, it will likely drop in sympathy should gold go into reverse near-term as expected. On the 1-year chart we can see that overall silver still looks good, with it having broken decisively out of the downtrend of the latter half of last year and also clear above its 50-day moving average, which has now turned up, with the MACD indicator trending upwards too. These positive developments have created the conditions for a new uptrend to get underway. Read full article... Read full article...

Gold Rallying Towards Resistance / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Clive_Maund
We've been here before haven't we? Gold has been in a rising trend for some considerable time, taking it to trendline or resistance targets, and then "wham!" it gets whacked back down again. Certainly the long-term outlook for gold is excellent, especially given the strong and increasing demand for physical, but over the short to medium-term it now looks set to get taken down again.

By: The_Gold_Report

The Gold Report: Sheldon, from a macro overview, where do you see the precious metals going? The U.S. government and all central bankers are jumping in at unprecedented levels. The Fed says it's going to throw in everything it's got to stimulate. Is it going to be enough and what will that mean for commodities? Or, if it doesn't work, what does that mean?

Silver Ripe for Another Upleg / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Mike_Paulenoff
The iShares Silver ETF (AMEX: SLV) has carved out an intriguing pattern since early October, which has the look of a base, an attempted upside breakout, followed by a (recent) sideways consolidation (between 11.50 and 10.00). Some people might even call this pattern a "cup and handle," which if accurate means that after another few sessions of sideways digestion circling 10.50, the SLV should take off to the upside into a new upleg that propels prices towards 12.50 next. Only a breach of 10.00 will wreck the developing pattern set-up.Read full article... Read full article...

Gold Review 2008 and Outlook Forecast 2009 / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Julian_DW_Phillips
What happened to gold in 2008? In 2008, the gold market began the year with a normal bull market pullback from its highs of $1,035 to the very low $900 level. Jewelry had already begun to recover as the gold price dropped, but then the impact of the "investor meltdown", through forced selling by investors, selling what they could to cover losses in other markets, hit gold too. To make matters worse, in the U.S.A. so many investors had paid, from only a 10% deposit up to a 50% deposit, on the shares they owned. Read full article... Read full article...

Insolvent Financial System Signals Much Higher Gold Price / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Jim_Willie_CB
Many people are very confused these days. They should be. Slowly the nation is coming to grips with a harsh reality that a garden variety recession has not dug its roots inside the body economic of the United States. This is much worse. This is an economic and financial system horribly plagued by insolvency, with vicious cycles causing severe momentum in the damage, where the entire system is facing potential ruin in a disintegration sequence during a virtually unstoppable liquidation process.

Silver Price Forecast 2009 / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Clive_Maund
Although silver's gains on the recent dollar plunge were relatively modest they were nevertheless technically very significant as they have resulted in it staging a clear breakout from the severe downtrend in force from July, and have thus set the stage for much greater gains in the future. Before going further it should be stated that much of what has been written and highlighted in the Gold Market update applies equally well to silver, and silver investors should therefore refer to the latest Gold Market update for this infortmation.
