By: Marty_Chenard
A powerful use of the Moving Average concept ... Most investors use Moving Averages on their charts ... like the 20 day, 50 day, 100 day, and 200 day moving average.

Tyler Mordy: Gold-Backed ETFs on a Roll / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: The_Gold_Report
It was Warren Buffett who said that you learn who's been swimming naked when the tide goes out. But it is Tyler Mordy who's pointing out the few swimsuit-clad investment products standing on the shore now that the tide of economic growth has clearly ebbed—and some of them have a golden glow. A widely recognized innovator in the design and application of actively managed Exchange Traded Fund portfolios, Tyler is Research Director for HAHN Investment Stewards and publishes its ETFocus every other month. In this exclusive interview, he tells The Gold Report readers that global multi-asset ETF portfolios having investments in gold and gold stocks present excellent opportunities not only for preserving but building wealth. Case in point: inflows of 105 tons into gold-backed ETFs in January—approximately half the world's gold mine output for the month—pushed ETF bullion holdings to a record 1,317 tons.

By: Q1_Publishing
John Maynard Keynes is one of the most influential and controversial economists in history. He warned of the huge burden war reparations placed on Germany and its allies after WW I. He played an integral role in establishing the post-WW II financial world. His economic theories established the impetus for governments to spend like mad during downturns. He made, lost, and made back a massive fortune in the stock market. He counted Pablo Picasso and Virginia Wolf as friends. Read full article... Read full article...

Gold GLD ETF Pullback Doesn't Inflict Meaningful Technical Damage / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Mike_Paulenoff
No, the gold and SPDR Gold Trust ETF (NYSE: GLD) markets have not provided much in any sort of hedge in the past week or so. However, looked at from a relative strength perspective, the enclosed chart pattern of the GLD clearly remains the inverse of the major equity market ETFs. Let's notice that the GLD has pulled back about 7% from its Feb 20th high, but has not inflicted any damage to the underlying chart structure. In fact, the GLD has pulled back to its mid-Feb upside break point, in the vicinity of 90.00-91.00, which thus far has contained the selling pressure. Read full article... Read full article...

U.S. Dollar Double Top Points to New Gold Bull Run / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Clive_Maund
Gold ran at its highs of last March, before reacting back heavily, as expected and predicted in the last update. The 1-year chart makes very clear why it has reacted back so. It hit the upper return line of a steep uptrend channel in a very overbought condition as shown by the RSI and slow stochastic on this chart, and various other oscillators that are not shown. Hence it had very little chance of following through with a breakout to new highs, as we had earlier observed. Despite its retreating back from the vicinity of its dollar highs there can be doubt that recent action has been bullish and augers well for the future, for with the break above the October highs, gold can be seen to have broken the trend of lower highs and lower lows that dogged it last year, with the result that all its principal moving averages have swung into bullish alignment - and it has broken above the last restraining fan line, opening the door to another major upleg.

Pep Talk for Panicky Gold Investors / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Jim_Willie_CB
SUDDEN SHIFT, FICKLE FOLKS - What a difference one week makes! With a gold price daring the $1000 mark in defiance, boldness prevailed, investors took heart, analysts cheered, and the establishment cringed. This week, with a very ordinary selloff in consolidation, optimism has vanished in what can only be characterized as silly. Gold & silver will take over the globe as anchors in a sea of shifting sands, all in time. We have seen the crude oil price fall from $140 something to $40 something, the Dow Jones Industrial stock index fall from 14,000 something to 7000 something, the housing price index fall every month by over 10% on an annual basis, and hundreds of billion$ vanish in bank equity.
