Gold and Silver Corrective Wave Due / Commodities / Gold & Silver

By: Joe_Nicholson

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleFrom a technical standpoint, gold still has room to run, at least up to the November high and probably beyond. Whereas the technical picture in the white metal had been pointing lower, the recent performance in tandem with gold now supports a more optimistic outlook. Gold has a decidedly bullish look about it, but it will take clearing $855 before some will finally put to rest any lingering suspicions of a deeper correction. An impulse in gold beyond that level would probably be matched with silver moving through $15.50 if not $16. Gold can be expected to reach record highs, but the fate of the housing market, the economy at large, and other exogenous factors may still determine the extent of that move. If last week's signal was the triangle in gold, then this week's might be silver at $15. ~Precious Points: Super Breakout! December 29, 2007

Gold Mega Move Underway, Stay With It! / Commodities / Gold & Silver

By: Aden_Forecast

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAs we enter 2008, gold is hitting a new record high. That's a great way to kick off the new year and it looks like there's a lot more to come. Why?

This commodity upmove is over six years old, yet it's still young and it'll likely last another decade before it's over. The falling dollar has certainly given the commodities a boost and there's really no reason why the dollar will strengthen next year, which is a positive sign for the commodities.

CRB Commodity Price Index Trend Manipulation / Commodities / CRB Index

By: Zeal_LLC

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAround 33 centuries ago, one of the most famous men in history hiked up a mountain probably now known as Jabal al Lawz in today's northwestern Saudi Arabia . There Moses met with God. God Himself carved commandments into stone tablets for Moses to share with His people, the Israelites. These commandments eventually became a major part of the legal foundation for western civilization.

One of these commandments preserved in the book of Exodus is “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” While most obviously commanding us not to lie, I believe this commandment goes well beyond lying. It probably also includes presenting true information in such a way that it will likely mislead when interpreted. A modern word that comes to mind along these lines is “nuancing”.

Uranium Stocks Rally Continues into 2008 / Commodities / Uranium

By: Merv_Burak

Well, the rally continues. The Merv's Daily Uranium Index of 50 stocks closed with a gain of 0.059 points or 1.37%. There were 36 winners, 12 losers and 2 unchanged. A three to one ratio of winners to losers is not bad for a day's work. The largest five stocks by market value did even better. Cameco gained 1.5%, Denison gained 3.9%, Paladin gained 4.6%, UEX gained 6.9% and Uranium One gained 5.7%. The best performer today was Formation Capital with a gain of 19.7% while the worst performer was Magnum Uranium with a loss of 9.6%, this after I just posted a gambler's recommendation on it. How's that for timing of the wrong kind. Looking at the chart the negative move is still well within its daily chart up trend (see the chart below).

Gold Strongly Bullish Outlook for 2008 / Commodities / Gold & Silver

By: Julian_DW_Phillips

Gold in 2008 will see a gear shift in its evolution to higher prices still.
Although we do not have sufficient space here to cover the full picture of why, [this will be seen in the full issue of the newsletter by subscribers] we can give you one aspect of why. This feature will be one of "moves to extremes" in a variety of markets as "dramatically difficult days" will hit some markets and "couldn't be better days" hit others.

Are these signs of more upside ahead? I sure think so! And today I want to tell you why.

Natural Gas ETF Bull Run to take a Breather / Commodities / Natural Gas

By: Mike_Paulenoff

The enclosed 4-hour chart of the U.S. Natural Gas Fund ETF (AMEX: UNG) shows yesterday's high as 38.45, but I show a high at 38.05 on my other systems. In any case, although the UNG was very overbought and in need of a pullback, the fact that today's "rest" is so shallow is a very bullish technical sign. In a perfect technical world, I would look for additional weakness that presses the UNG to 36.50 prior to the start of a new and very powerful upside extension (towards 40-41). In an imperfect world, however, we might now see the UNG beneath 37.20/00 prior to the resumption of strength. For the time being, I will wait on the sidelines for a while longer.

Gold Soars and Global Turmoil and Plans for China Gold Futures Exchange / Commodities / Gold & Silver

By: David_Vaughn

Well, according to gold bears gold was supposed to go down.Instead it is going up. Makes no sense, huh? I'm really not a nut to get hung up over the gold price. I merely see the price as a reaction to events happening around us.

Well, another decade is coming soon right around the corner. Seems like the last decade barely got started. Seems like yesterday was 2001 and an entire fresh ten years was before us. And the older we get time seems to go faster and even faster. I remember in 2001 making estimates of where the new decade would take us and where we would be when 2010 came. What has happened these past years?

Commodity Bull Market Super Cycle - Ready to Rumble on in 2008 / Commodities / Resources Investing

By: Gary_Dorsch


Best Financial Markets Analysis Article“A trend in motion, will stay in motion, until some major outside force, knocks it off its course.” After gyrating within a sideways trading range over the past 18-months, the “Commodity Super Cycle,” measured by the Dow Jones-AIG Commodity Index, (DJCI), resumed its upward course in the second half or 2007. Led by the agricultural, energy, and precious metal sectors, the DJCI closed at an all-time high.

According to famed hedge-fund trader Jimmy Rogers, the 20th century has seen three secular bull-markets in commodities from 1906-1923, and from 1933-1955, and 1968-1982, spanning an average of 15-years. The current bull market for the DJCI is now six-years old, and Mr Rodgers thinks the “Commodity Super Cycle” has many more years to run, albeit with some nasty corrections along the way.

Buy Gold Whilst Its Still Cheap - US Dollar Doomed / Commodities / Gold & Silver

By: Alex_Wallenwein

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThis is almost a “No Comment Necessary” article. Take a good look at this US Dollar Index chart and witness the ominous Head-and-Shoulders pattern beginning to show itself.

Ironically, the flattening red line of the 50 day moving average slices right through the “head” of the formation - precisely at the neck line. An ominous sign, indeed! Not so much from a technical standpoint, of course, but from a symbolic one.

Natural Gas Gaps Higher / Commodities / Natural Gas

By: Mike_Paulenoff

Natural gas futures are up about 3.5% this morning, strength that is in sympathy with the rest of the commodity complex, such as gold, oil and the euro, which is attracting money flow on this first trading day of 2008. Purely from a technical perspective, let's notice that the U.S. Natural Gas Fund (AMEX: UNG) has started the session (and the year) with a powerful up-gap open, and has continued still higher -- towards a confrontation with the declining 50 DMA, now at 37.98. At this juncture, my work points higher, to a next target zone of 38.00/40.

Gold Investments 2007 Review and 2008 Forecasts / Commodities / Gold & Silver

By: Gold_Investments

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleGold Price Review
Gold closed 2007 at $834.50 per ounce. Gold closed at a new monthly high close (and near record annual high and all time non inflation adjusted high) as investors again sought the safe haven appeal of gold. And with the dollar falling sharply again (last week recording its worst week against the euro in more than a year) – precious metals were well supported.

Gold had a weekly gain of 3.3%. The year-on-year gain was a very healthy 32%. Gold´s gain was the largest annual gain since 1979 (when its price doubled) and its seventh straight year of positive returns. Gold thus outperformed the majority of the world´s major stock markets once again.

Gold Beats the Stock Market for 2007 - The Baby Boomers Effect / Commodities / Gold & Silver

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleGOLD WINS! PAPER EQUITIES LOSE! The headlines for investing in 2007, and the previous ten years, can now be written. Forget all the other drivel about what happened in the markets in 2007. Gold won! That's all you really need to know. Gold beat paper equities for the one year, for the five years, and for the past ten years. Absolutely no way purveyors of paper equities can paper over their miserable performance.
