Gold And Silver - Elites V Gold: Still No Contest / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Michael_Noonan
Without question, the least understood, least visible force that affects almost everyone's lives, certainly in the Western world, is that of the elites, the moneychangers, the relative handful that controls everything, from the BIS, IMF, and down to the central bankers. These individuals remain nameless and faceless, but their roots are founded by that widely known banking clan, the Rothschilds.
There has been an increase in the vague awareness of the elites acknowledged as forces that control everything, but by and large, such people are pseudo-intellectually aware, a part of the "crowd" that professes to know more than the average individual [which is an easy accomplishment, anyway], but in effect it is a false sense of awareness because these individuals otherwise lead a similar life to the less informed. Both groups remain a part of the "system," maintaining bank accounts, use of credit cards, registered to vote, in fact registered to do everything to meet the requirements of the system that keeps everyone suppressed.

Gold Price Look Out Below / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Sy_Harding
Gold experienced a spectacular bull market run from its low at $250 an ounce in 2001 to its peak above $1,900 an ounce in 2011. Its long bull market was largely supported by expectations that the Fed’s easy money policies would create spiraling inflation, of which gold, the historical hedge against inflation, would be the big benefactor.
However, spiraling inflation did not materialize. In fact, inflation remained quite benign, and in 2011 gold gave up on the idea. It rolled over into a 37% bear market decline to $1,200 an ounce.

Gold and Silver to Face More Body Blows / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne
Gold has broken below $1200 this morning in what should begin the final breakdown. In weekly and monthly terms $1200 was the remaining support. Sure Gold could bounce from $1180 but todays breakdown is more significant. Both metals are now in breakdown mode while the mining stocks continue to slide. There is more downside ahead and bulls should continue to stand aside before a favorable buying opportunity emerges.

The Sound Money Business: Four Years Past and Future Forecast / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Peter_Schiff
Yesterday, I launched a new website and announced the rebranding of my gold bullion dealer from Euro Pacific Precious Metals to SchiffGold. I started this company four years ago to provide a trustworthy option for my Euro Pacific Capital brokerage clients, but it has since grown to become a major US gold dealer in its own right. This landmark for my company comes in the midst of a historic time for the precious metals. The past four years have had highs and lows. We have been experiencing the inflation of remarkable new asset bubbles, and gold’s response has been mixed. But I have reason to believe that over the next four years, gold and silver investors will witness shocking macroeconomic events that put to rest any doubts about the importance of having sound money in every portfolio.

Gold & Silver Shorts, Failing Economies and The Quarter-End / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Alasdair_Macleod
Precious metals have faced adverse weather as evidence mounts that major economies may be sliding into recession. Yesterday the ECB finally responded to the deteriorating situation in the Eurozone by announcing a discretionary form of QE to last up to two years if necessary. The only clues are the ECB will buy in covered bonds and asset backed securities issued in euros in the Eurozone with an objective to increasing the ECB's balance sheet by about €1 trillion.

Gold Price Q4 Outlook as Global Bond Market On Edge Of “Cliff” / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: GoldCore
The current U.S. bond market faces a "liquidity cliff" and looks like an asset "bubble" that could burst when interest rates start to rise, according to the senior U.S. securities regulator. This is something we have been warning of in recent months.
The consequences of the bursting of the bond bubble would be rising interest rates, which would likely impact property and stock markets and benefit safe haven gold bullion.

Gold, Comfort, Karma, and Money Velocity / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Dr_Jeff_Lewis
I keep hearing..."You don't want a world where silver is $350 or gold is $10000".
Maybe not. But the probability of that happening, with all the "known, knowns" of risk - make it crucial to own some amount just in case.
Obviously, you know this as well as anyone. And no one wants chaos, suffering, and war. Just as no one wants a world of extreme, speculative excess that is so dangerous and extreme that very little remains of a real economy.

HUI Gold Stocks Analysis / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Gary_Tanashian
In February of 2013 we noted the big fat HEAD on the HUI’s massive H&S pattern. It was reviewed again in April of 2013 after it broke the neckline in a very bearish move. Mr. Fat Head’s technical objective was and is 100.
Why is this being revisited? Because I have gotten a couple emails noting that it is showing up again out there amidst the very bearish backdrop. If anything, if every gold bug on the planet is planning for 100, the ingredient is in place for this final indignity that they are so well prepared for, to maybe not happen.

Gold to Silver Ratio - Sentiment / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: DeviantInvestor
The gold to silver ratio (GSR) acts like a sentiment indicator. When the GSR is low both gold and silver are usually running upward and strong. When the ratio is high, like now (Sept. 30, 2014), gold and especially silver are priced low and disinterest is nearly universal.
This is my anecdotal interpretation of silver & gold sentiment from a high of 10 to a low of 1:

US Dollar is the Last Stop Before Gold and Silver Price Spike / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: David_Morgan
David Morgan is interviewed by Butler On Business
Alan: Silver has been under pressure. We saw a little bit of a pop when Mario Draghi did his thing last week. This is an environment where precious metals should be off to the races and yet it's been down for gold... they are taking gold out to the woodshed.
David: As far as I'm concerned, and this is not about being right, or being stubborn, this is about my analysis, right or wrong. I really think this is the month where we are going to turn around, meaning that the bottoms for both metals could be tested. Silver broke below the $18.17 low that I have been talking about for a long time. The next level of support is the $17.50 area.

Gold Stocks Stealth Rally / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Gary_Tanashian
Well, the headlines are rightfully bearish for gold, silver and the major precious metals stock indexes, ETFs and senior gold miners. The technical damage is real. Today's burst could be and probably is just short covering. [edit; post was mostly written before the end of day flop]
But improbably enough, there is a stealth uptrend going on in certain royalties, miners, developers and explorers. Believe me, if you could hear me talk instead of write you would not hear anything resembling desperation in my tone. That is because I have worked hard during this bear market to manage risk, stay strong and out of the bear's way. So I am not talking any sort of a book here other than my biggest picture view (an economic contraction environment that ultimately benefits the counter cyclical gold sector), which could still be out on the horizon.

Gold Will Surprise In More Ways Than One / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Submissions
Bob Loukas writes: Everywhere you turn today, gold is again being dismissed as a relic of the past, totally worthless, non-producing, with no place in any modern day portfolio. During the past 3 years, the gold complex has experienced the progressive stages of fear, capitulation, and despair, all classic bottoming phases of a long term Cycle. The question now is whether this high level of apathy is a symptom of a new secular bear market or a period of “stealth smart money” accumulation.

Turn the Tables on the Gold and Silver Market Manipulators / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: Money_Morning
Peter Krauth writes: In theory, we have free markets, where manipulation is illegal and punishable.
We've found that's not often the case in the financial markets.
Unfortunately, this web of "disruptive practices" and "market rigging" is not likely to change any time soon.

By: Jason_Hamlin

Urging Investors to Stay Liquid for the Coming Gold Stocks Boom / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2014
By: The_Gold_Report
Jay Taylor doesn't beat around the bush—he believes the price of gold is being suppressed to support the U.S. dollar and underwrite American foreign policy. But the publisher and editor of J. Taylor's Gold, Energy & Tech Stocks and host of the radio show "Turning Hard Times into Good Times" thinks that this suppression will fail, just as it did in the 1970s, when gold rose over 2,300%. In this interview with The Gold Report, Taylor urges investors to stay as liquid as possible so they can invest in undervalued companies poised to explode when the value of gold is reasserted.
The Gold Report: The price of gold has fallen more than $130 an ounce ($130/oz) since July. Why?
