Eating the Dow for Breakfast by Adrian Ash BullionVault Wednesday, 6 March 2013
How to get past money illusion now that it’s day-break in America once again…
FORGET about the Apple effect. Not including AAPL in its 30 constituents is just one of the Dow Jones Industrial Average’s many quirks.
So too is its ever-changing Dow divisor, a number seemingly picked at random to smooth out the math in the DJIA. But neither of these oddities [...] My Dear Friends, Monty Guild, a friend of mine for more than forty years, is the most honest and capable man, in my opinion, in money management. I respect Monty’s feelings on many matters, certainly the macro picture. Monty, like I, believes it is possible that coordinated central bank actions in the USA, EU, Japan and China are being discussed. The economic problems are so severe, so international, so global, so entwined, [...] (CBS Tampa) — Michael Phelps better watch where he swims next time. Gold medal winner Ryan Lochte admits to urinating in the Olympic swimming pool during the London games. Talking to Ryan Seacrest, Lochte – former University of Florida swimmer — says that athletes usually pee in the pool.
http://tampa.cbslocal.com/2012/08/03/ryan-lochte-i-peed-in-london-olympic-swimming-pool/ Kaifu Lee revealed personal information of American coach John Leonard on blogging site Weibo The Olympic row between the U.S. and China rolled on today as the personal details of the American swimming coach who questioned the gold-medal success of Chinese [...] OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Eight was enough for Michael Phelps in Beijing. The world’s greatest swimmer dropped one of his eight Olympic events on Monday, leaving him with seven at the London Games. That means the 14-time gold medalist won’t equal the record eight golds he won four years ago. And Phelps is just fine with that. “Four years ago, we were trying to literally do everything,” he told The Associated Press in [...] Global Financial Repression Is Here: India to ban GOLD sales! Argentina banned Gold sales and foreign currency! Europe withdrawal limits…Obama is spying your gold purchases! Gold SHOCKER: The first gold ban of the 21st century could happen here While the rest of the “developed” world has been doing all in its power to crush its currency in order to promote exports within a [...] From Richard Russell via LewRockwell.com: It’s difficult to make people believe that there’s a difference between an investment for a possible profit and a store of wealth. But rich people know the difference. When a man has made as much money as he can, he starts worrying about losing that money. That’s the time when he wants to own “eternal stores of wealth.” Yesterday “The Scream,” a painting by Munch, sold at [...] By Dominic Frisby Apr 24, 2012 The website Www.Sharelynx.Com is a treasure trove of weird and wonderful charts, most of them gold-related. It’s the only site I know where you can find the historical ratio of gold-to-milk prices, for example. Or where you can look at a measure of sentiment in the gold market from, say, 1983. Nick Laird, who runs the site, pinged me an email last week, which read: “This must be the low. I [...] kingworldnews.com With continued volatility in global stock and commodities markets, today King World News interviewed James Turk out of Europe. Turk exclusively sent KWN what he calls “the most important and extraordinary chart for 2012.” But first, here is what Turk had to say about the action in gold and silver, and what investors should expect going forward: “The spring is already coiled, Eric, but it is being wound tighter and tighter [...] by DavidPierre What do foreigners think?
Something changed this morning! Long time Gold watchers will recall that in the past, any time that the Federal Reserve chairman spoke, Gold would always be pushed down during the speech. That changed 2-3 years ago only to morph back into that pattern again since the Feb. 29th massacre. It has changed again. On CNBS this morning … Gold down $3 or $4 when Ben Bernanke began a [...] BY PETER KRAUTH, Global Resources Specialist, Money Morning It’s the beginning of a new year, and there’s no shortage of big headlines… Europe is on the financial brink, Iran is a powder keg, and precious metals like gold have retreated. It’s also a time when there is no shortage of financial forecasts. Even though these kinds of predictions about the future can be tough to make, I’ll admit it’s kind of fun to look forward and see [...] From Investment Postcards from Cape Town: The gold price has been working its way higher since hitting bottom in late-December and managed to breach its rising 200-day moving average yesterday… In September of last year, we saw gold jump two standard deviations above our gold intermediate-term risk indicator’s average, a feat only seen on three prior occasions (2006, 2008, 2009). Since then, gold has significantly worked off its overbought condition and fallen [...] Attempts by central banks to blatantly manipulate the price of gold lower should come as no surprise to long time gold investors. Market News International reported on Thursday that the Bank of England, the Federal Reserve and the Bank for International Settlements mounted coordinated selling in an attempt to drive the price of gold lower. After advancing to $1,757.80, gold reversed course, ending the day in New York trading at [...] Zerohedge has a piece about the latest bail-out manoeuvre being leaked on Monday, hence the “risk on” rally in markets which nobody at the ABC was able to explain. Another way to visualise this is with the Safe Haven index. The index goes up when there is “risk off” sentiment, and goes down with “risk on”. The index was at 211.7 over the weekend (100 = 8 [...] The global economy is moving into a “survival period” in which gold will provide one of the few areas of protection for investors, according to Richard Russell. The publisher of Dow Theory Letters – the world’s longest-running daily investment letter – and a long-time gold bull, Russell reiterated his bullish case for the yellow metal and gold-related investments this week. “I now think of compounding in terms of debt and the compounding of [...] From Jeff Clark, Senior Precious Metals Analyst, Casey Research: I’ve told more than one concerned investor that when the gold price falls, they should “come back in three months” and see if they’re still worried. The idea is that the daily and monthly gyrations are nothing to fret over, that the price will recover and, in time, fetch new highs. That advice has worked every time gold underwent any significant correction (except [...] By Jeff Clark, BIG GOLD I’ve told more than one concerned investor that when the gold price falls, they should “come back in three months” and see if they’re still worried. The idea is that the daily and monthly gyrations are nothing to fret over, that the price will recover and, in time, fetch new highs. That advice has worked every time gold underwent any significant correction (except [...] The idea of peak everything has made a comeback over the last ten years, and it may not be a coincidence that this discussion has paralleled the rising prices of many commodities since 2000. However, thinking about resource scarcity is nothing new. Many alive in the 1970s will remember the book Limits to Growth, which is still debated decades after its initial publication. Whether or [...] Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen: The world is now realizing that manipulation and control of the gold and silver price is mandatory by the bankers. I am afraid that they will continue to bash gold and silver until Greece implodes. The price of gold was hit early in the session but rebounded nicely before comex closing time. Gold finished the [...] Gold’s “perfect storm” is expected to continue on renewed investor demand for haven assets, potentially driving the metal to its 1980 inflation- adjusted record, according to Morgan Stanley. The firm retains a positive view on gold for its role as portfolio insurance against a “formidable cocktail” of macro challenges including financial systemic risk, concern of a double dip recession and sustained low interest rates, [...] Bloomberg Gold may extend its record to as high as $2,500 an ounce in the next year if sovereign debt concerns escalate, Citigroup Inc. said. The metal climbed to a record $1,921.15 an ounce on Sept. 6 as concerns about debt crises and slowing economic growth boosted demand for a protection of wealth. The metal could “briefly spike” to between $2,000 and $2,500 in the next 12 months and will likely stay [...] by JOHN RUBINO on JULY 11, 2011 Once upon a time, gold and stocks were thought to be inversely correlated. That is, when the market went up, gold would go down, and when the market was down, gold would go up as investors abandoned risky assets for the safety of sound money. Put another way, stocks were for “normal” times and gold was something you owned as protection against [...] “GOLD — The chart below shows daily gold over the last two years. During that period gold has respected its 150-day moving average, which is the blue line that you see on the chart. Over the last two years gold has tested its 150-day MA six times, and each time gold has held above the 150-day MA — and then rallied to new highs.” “The latest [...] (Fox business)Gold hit a fresh record high on Wednesday while world stocks declined as unrest in the Middle East and North Africa drove up oil prices and pushed investors into safer assets. The MSCI world equity index slipped 0.2% and was off about 2% from a 30-month peak set in February. The index is still up about 3% since the start of the year. U.S. stocks were slightly higher as [...] Each day, I am more and more amazed by not only the fraud and corruption in financial markets (and everything else, for that matter), but the apathy about such as America rapidly spins around the bottom of the toilet bowl. As a veteran (tick-for-tick) watcher of the Precious Metals manipulation- I mean market- for the past decade, I have watched every dirty trick imaginable, legal and [...] by zh The Asian sharks are smelling the aforementioned blood. As of a minute ago, silver has jumped to far above intraday highs and is three nickels away from $30. At the same time gold is flying too, moving well north of the $1,400 barrier, as JPM silver’s short is nothing compared to its gold paper shorts. And if the firm is capitulating on one, it is [...] by RobotTrader Until that relationship changes, then stocks and gold are likely to trade in the same direction. If Stockman is correct and thinks the stock market will crash reflecting poor fundamentals and mo-mo monkeys suddenly heading for the exit at the same time, then I expect that gold will get crushed as well. So the Cosmic Joke may be that the “Apocalypse Investors” could also [...] |

SILVER Demand set for Dramatic climb to Historic High in 2013
Silver Investment has so far been one of the most popular market moves of 2013. Silver seems set to achieve a new all-time price record in 2013 on a relentless and historic climb reaching as high as $55 to $64 an ounce. The out-of-proportion Gold to Silver ratio which should move back down is one of the best reasons why Silver will rise faster than Gold. Higher investment demand as paper money [...]
