Buying Gold in Uncertain Times

Bill Bonner — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 19:10:48 +0000

Dow down slightly yesterday. Oil falling further below $100. And gold still going up. What is most interesting is the movement in the price of gold. It seems to be heading up again — almost no matter what else is happening. So, let’s look at what might be going on… If investors sensed a recovery…they [...]

Gold in the Face of Facebook

Addison Wiggin — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 20:19:49 +0000

Stocks are up today. The major indexes have jumped 1%… for no obvious reason. There’s talk of a halo effect from the pending IPO of Facebook, which could file the paperwork as early as today. Oy… Talk about “riding on a smile and a shoeshine,” to borrow from Death of a Salesman. “You have 500 [...]

Manufacturing Growth Continues

I have to tell you what’s on my mind this morning after watching the price action again yesterday… I know, it’s just me, and no one else in the writing/analyst world will tell you this, because they have no proof… I don’t either, but that never stops me from saying what’s on my mind regarding [...]

Currencies Rally on Eurozone Agreement

Chuck Butler — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 17:15:38 +0000

The currency rally that stalled yesterday was back on last night… I have to tell you that I was up most of the night on Sunday and after getting poked and stuck at the doctor’s office yesterday, I went home, straight to my recliner and slept for the next five hours! Then I woke up, [...]

Commodities Take Off!

Chuck Butler — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 16:57:47 +0000

The Greek talks returned to the headlines this morning. I know I said this last Friday, and I was a little too optimistic and turned out to be wrong! But… I do expect this agreement on a private-sector involvement in Greek debt to get hammered out this weekend… It seems that the opposition from eurozone [...]

Good day… And a Tub Thumpin’ Thursday to you! I wonder what I’ll talk about today…. Hmmmm… Could it be…. The Fed meeting? Oh, you are so smart! In case you missed this yesterday, because I’m sure the major media outlets couldn’t muster up enough intestinal fortitude to do it, but the Fed threw a [...]

Gold Temporarily Loses its Uncertainty Hedge

Chuck Butler — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 17:10:15 +0000

Good day! And a wonderful Wednesday to you! A very confusing day for yours truly yesterday. I have my beliefs, and they have been proven to be true for a long time now. But now there’s something gnawing at those beliefs now… and then a wrench gets thrown into the works. I’m telling you now, [...]

Home Prices Keep Falling

Chuck Butler — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 16:35:32 +0000

Good day… Should be an interesting week, as the ECOFIN people meet and Greece is still working on their debt and… this will be my first full week of work in over a month, so all in all, pretty interesting! What I also found interesting on Friday was the price action of silver… I don’t [...]

Why Has Gold Been Down?

Jeff Clark — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 20:25:14 +0000

After all, in spite of some short-term fixes, there remains no real resolution to the sovereign debt issues in many European countries. We’re certainly not spending less money in the US, and now we’re bailing out Europe via currency swaps with the European Central Bank. Shouldn’t gold be rising? Yes, but nothing happens in a [...]
