Investing vs. Speculating in Gold and Silver Stocks / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks

By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne

One thing that is intriguing about the precious metals sector is the vast composition of the companies in the sector. The entire equity sector can be divided in so many forms and ways. We can divide the gold and silver stocks, the producers and non producers, the explorers and the developers, the royalty companies and non-royalty companies as well as those making money and those not making money. To make money in this sector one really needs to have a plan and know what they are doing. Specifically, one needs to define an investment and a speculation.

Gold, Are You Tempted to Sell, or Eager to Buy? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Jeff_Clark

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleJeff Clark, Casey Research writes: It wasn't a fun week for gold. By the close on Friday, the metal was down 6.7% (based on London PM fix prices), the biggest weekly decline since September. It got downright irritating when the mainstream media seemingly rejoiced at gold's decline. Economist Nouriel Roubini poked fun at gold bugs in a Tweet. Über investor Dennis Gartman said he sold his holdings. CNBC ran an article proclaiming gold was no longer a safe-haven asset (talk about an overreaction).

Goldrunner: Gold on the Cusp of $3,000+ Update / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: GoldRunner

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleOur work with Gold is based on a "Model" off the late 70's Gold Bull that has been replicating nicely since we started the Fractal Work with Gold back in 2002 and 2003. Short-term volatile moves in Gold, as we have seen over the past weeks, do not affect our projections based on the model, leaving the expectation of a move in Gold up to $3,000 into mid-year based intact as outline in our previous article entitled Gold Tsunami: on the Cusp of $3000+?

Are Investors Taking Advantage of Lower Gold Prices? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Eric_McWhinnie

Last week, gold futures climbed 1.3 percent on Friday, but still posted a 6.9 percent loss for the week. It was the biggest decline for gold in three months. Some were quick to announce the gold bull market dead, but many investors disagree. Furthermore, actual demand for physical precious metals continue to show strength.

Striking Portfolio Balance with Gold Stocks / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks

By: Frank_Holmes

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleGold stocks have historically ranked among some of the most volatile asset classes. Over any given one-year period, it is a non-event for gold stocks to move plus or minus 38 percent. This DNA of volatility is about three times that of gold bullion, which carries an annual volatility around 13 percent.

Despite this volatility, our research shows that investors can use gold stocks to enhance returns without adding risk to the portfolio.

Gold Bull or Bear? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Tony_Caldaro

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleGold did something this week it had not done in three years, and had done only twice before since the bull market began in 2001. It completely retraced an entire uptrend. Amazing as that should sound, and it is, as I have never seen this kind of bullish action ever before, there is one potential bearish implication. While 2011 has been a difficult year for the equity markets with a lot of volatility and uncertainly. Gold has just thrown its OEW count into the same ring of fire. Tough year!

The Gold and Silver 70% Dividend / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: Money_Morning

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticlePeter Krauth writes: Lately, it seems billionaire precious metals investor Eric Sprott is grabbing headlines almost daily.

Sprott believes in silver and gold as money, and he has little faith in paper currencies.

That explains his recent acquisition of a chain of currency exchange outlets, which he aims to gradually build into the safest kind of bank - one that makes no loans, and could eventually offer gold- and silver-backed checking accounts.

Gold Downtrend Looks Like the Direction Ahead, Projections for 2012 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleOuch, that hurts.  I could see a negative move in the works but I don’t think anyone expected a plunge like this past week.  Friday upside move was very unimpressive so, although we might get a bounce here, the downside still looks like the direction ahead.

Curtains for the Silver Bull Market? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Clive_Maund

Some weeks ago in a Silver Market update we had noted that a large potential Head-and-Shoulders top area was completing in silver, but we got "thrown off the scent" by the positive Accum-Distrib line (now rapidly reversing) and the seemingly strongly bullish COT structure. In the light of the severe bearish breakdown by stocks indices last week this potential H&S top is now viewed as legitimate. Silver held up remarkably well last week considering what happened to gold, which is a straw that silver bulls are now clutching on to as evidence that silver is still in a bullmarket, but the reason that it held up so well is that it is close to a zone of strong support towards the lower boundary of the H&S top area. Once this support fails it's "curtains" for silver which can be expected to plunge into the high teens.

Why the Gold Price is Falling Far and Fast / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Julian_DW_Phillips

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleHaving fought a stalwart battle above $1,700 and having seen over $1,900 this year, gold has not done as so many analysts have believed it would and risen through $2,000. Instead, here we're headed down towards $1,500 to who knows where? The stress in the financial markets has not stimulated safe-haven gold buying but has instead weakened the euro and indirectly helped drag gold lower. Prices have fallen to a point where investors with longstanding positions are liquidating some of their holdings to secure profits and momentum-driven traders are selling heavily. At the same time stresses continue to be seen in the European interbank lending market as USD funding has become even more expensive as the year closes.

Liquidation of Customer Stored Gold and Silver Bullion From MF Global / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Jesse

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe bottom line is that apparently some warehouses and bullion dealers are not a safe place to store your gold and silver, even if you hold a specific warehouse receipt.  In an oligarchy, private ownership is merely a concept, subject to interpretation and confiscation.

Although the details and the individual perpetrators are yet to be disclosed, what is now painfully clear is that the CFTC and CME regulated futures system is defaulting on its obligations.  This did not even happen in the big failures like Lehman and Bear Sterns in which the customer accounts were kept whole and transferred before the liquidation process.

Gold for What its Worth! / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012

By: UnpuncturedCycle

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleGiuseppe L. Borrelli writes: The last of the human freedoms: to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way. ~ Viktor Frankl

An awful lot is being written about gold and most of it comes from the mouths of individuals who simply don't know what they are talking about. Here's a perfect example of "news" that came across Reuters this morning. The Swiss franc and investments in gold will no longer provide investors with safe harbor from market turmoil and the Eurozone debt crisis, UBS's investment chief told the Swiss bank's client in a letter Friday. "As we enter 2012, neither gold nor the Swiss franc retains a safe haven status," UBS Chief Investment Officer Alexander Friedman wrote in the letter. I'm not going to comment on the Franc but when I read something like this I have to wonder to myself if he isn't taking the other side of the gold trade? There really is no other explanation for a comment like that.

Will Moving Averages Deter Gold Investors? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2011

By: Eric_McWhinnie

Red has been the color of choice for gold and silver this week. On Wednesday, gold fell below $1,600 to close at its lowest level since September. Meanwhile, silver fell below its $30 support level. Although many were quick to declare the bull market in precious metals dead, many investors questioned the call, because the long-term fundamentals have not changed.
