Double Bottom in Gold Price / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: Mario_Innecco
With the Fed looking like it is wimping out on raising rates in June 2015 and the dollar index crashing back below 100 it looks like gold has bottomed and formed a double bottom.
Jan Hatzius of Goldman Sachs now sees the first rate hike in September and last year GS was talking about a March or June hike. The strength we have seen in the dollar these last few months was based on expectations of rate hikes by the Fed so I think the FX/Gold market could get pretty wild as expectations of these rate hikes by the Fed dissipate.

The New London Gold Fixing / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: Julian_DW_Phillips
The Heart of the Gold Price - The "Fix"
The London Gold Fixing, the twice daily gold pricing mechanism at which the bulk of physical gold transactions take place is changing dramatically. In the past five London Based gold bullion banks on a direct telephone link to their clients established a price at which these transactions took place. This was an efficient way to establish an accurate price for gold deals done outside of the contracts used to supply the bulk of gold deals.

Gold And Silver - When Will Precious Metals Rally? Not In 2015 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: Michael_Noonan
If one addresses what is going on between China and the IMF, while keeping an eye on the Federal Reserve's fiat debt instrument, incorrectly called the "dollar," then the likelihood of a significant rally in gold and silver may not develop this year. Those believing the fiat "dollar" is on its currency deathbed and about to implode to its true intrinsic worth, zero, are not paying enough attention to realize that the elite's are still in control while in the process of merely switching horses: to China from the US.

Gold Price Short-Term Respite but Danger Looming / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne
The precious metals sector is oversold and due for a bounce. Miners and metals have endured severe declines in recent weeks and are likely to rebound from the 2014 lows. The miners are just starting to rebound and the metals should follow. However, until proven otherwise this appears to be an oversold bounce that could last only a few weeks. Potential danger lies ahead before a sustained turnaround.

Gold Price Slumps as US Dollar Soars, What's Next? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: Nadeem_Walayat
Within weeks of the start of 2015, the Gold price had soared to nudge above $1,300 prompting many gold bugs to start proclaiming that the long anticipated resumption of the gold bull market had begun after a 3.5 year bear market. However, the gold price raally proved short lived as the January peak of $1,308 was followed by a relentless grind lower to $1,150, that is even lower than where Gold began the year at $1,183.

Gold and Currency War Chaos / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: Alasdair_Macleod
This week has been all about currencies, with a weak euro grabbing the headlines. At one point yesterday morning, the euro was 3% down from last Friday's close, hitting a 12-year low against the US dollar. The yen was also weak, challenging its multi-year low point established last December. However, there are signs that gold and silver are being accumulated in the futures markets, and at GoldMoney we have seen a pick-up in demand for physical gold this week.

On the Silver Highway / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: Dr_Jeff_Lewis
I’ll fly a starship across the Universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain
And I'll be back again, and again and again and again and again. - The Highwayman

Gold Price Bull Market 2015 Annihilated by Strong U.S. Dollar / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: Nadeem_Walayat
Within weeks of the start of 2015, the Gold price had soared to nudge above $1,300 prompting many gold bugs to start proclaiming that the long anticipated resumption of the gold bull market had begun after what had seemed like an never ending 3.5 year bear market that had contained many false dawns which had greatly demoralised many gold bugs and even worse for precious metal stock investors.

Gold Sucks! / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: Gary_Tanashian
Ben Kramer-Miller, a fundamental gold stock analyst who I keep an eye on, recently had an article at SeekingAlpha called Gold’s Bull Run Has Not Yet Begun. I remember taking note of the title when it came out, but as is usually the case I did not have the time, nor the inclination to read it. I like to keep my own thoughts square and balanced and don’t need other peoples’ thoughts on gold clouding my own.

Silver Price Projection, U.S. Dollar Correction / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: DeviantInvestor
Take the S&P Index and multiply by the US dollar index. This removes most of the currency variation. Do the same with silver. The chart of silver times the dollar looks very much like silver priced in euros.

By: Jeff_Clark
Would you like your advice from someone who has been successful or from someone who’s failed? I’d prefer to hear from a winner.
Now that the gold market has been mauled by a bear, we can sort out the pretenders from the contenders in the mining industry. After all, there’s nothing like a major down cycle to reveal which companies are run by people who know how to prepare for bad weather.

Simple Test to Determine if Gold Price Is at a Bottom / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: The_Gold_Report
Gold investors have been through a nuclear winter, but the future looks bright as mining companies bask in the glow of lower costs, better exchange rates and a flurry of mergers and acquisitions. In this interview with The Gold Report, Tocqueville Asset Management fund managers Doug Groh and John Hathaway share the names of mid-cap companies that could emerge successfully and one truly contrarian play that could be a tenbagger if their forecasts are correct.

Gold and Silver Price Decline Continues / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2015
By: P_Radomski_CFA
Briefly: In our opinion speculative short positions (full) in gold, silver and mining stocks are justified from the risk/reward perspective. We are keeping the stop-loss levels at their current levels, which means that we are effectively keeping some gains locked in and at the same time we're allowing the profits to increase.
Gold moved a little higher yesterday only to disappoint in the following part of the session. Gold stocks plunged without looking back. The decline continues - will it end soon?
