Gold Editorials & Commentary

As an Indian and as an Asian, I am not surprised by the current rise in gold and silver.  The only concern is the snail’s pace of rise. Gold price has risen this year but still way below actual valuation.

We wrote about this point recently. But we are saying it again because the message is so important. IF YOU DON’T HOLD IT THEN YOU DON’T OWN IT (IYDHITYDOI).

It’s rare that I suggest that gold market investors should engage in “price chasing.” The 1970s were a time to do it.  So was 2009. What about today?  Today, the answer is… yes!

Nobody expected the Russian inquisition! Nobody expected such a fierce Ukrainian defense, either. Of course, the situation is still very dramatic. Russian troops continued their offensive and – although the pace slowed down considerably – they managed to make some...

Gold’s next big surprise could be on the downside. Continued strength in the US dollar throughout the current Russian – Ukrainian conflict is the indicator.

Now is the time for traders to adapt to higher volatility and rapidly changing market conditions. One of the best ways to do this is to monitor different asset classes and track which investments are gaining and losing money flow. Knowing what the Best Asset Now is...

Crude oil did it again! Even though gold moved higher recently, crude oil soared so substantially that it stole practically the entire spotlight. Let’s take a look at it before moving to the precious metals sector.

For almost two years (starting in 2020 before you could see any consumer inflation at all), I have faithfully and consistently traced our trajectory toward scorching inflation that would cause a market disaster. Prior to that, inflationary burn-out was not an...

The gold price traded quietly sideways for an hour once trading commenced at 6:00 p.m. EST on Thursday evening -- and at 8 a.m. China Standard Time on their Friday morning, it took off higher, only to run into the short sellers of last resort a bit under an hour...

The Romans are said to have had a warning, brief and to the point as Latin often is, that translates as “Buyer beware!.” It would not be farfetched to believe that the same warning, phrased much the same, existed in Sumerian and other old languages long before Latin...

Marc Faber discusses the war in Europe which is leading us into energy and food shortages this year. The western countries banning Russia from SWIFT are leading to Russia and other abandoning the US Dollar.

My grandfather was a WWI veteran serving with the Canadian division of the British Army in most of the major battles in WWI in Europe, including Vimy Ridge and Passchendaele while fathering six children in the Toronto neighbourhood of Parkdale.

Last week's trading saw Gold forming its low in Monday's session, here doing so with the tag of the 1892.20 figure. From there, a gradual uptrend was seen into late-week, with the metal pushing all the way up to a Friday high of 1974.90 - also ending the week at or...

We're wrong to this point as regards the price of Gold fading after spiking on RUS' invasion of UKR. Which starkly tells us how serious this incursion is versus that from eight years back in 2014.

Here are today's videos and charts. The videos are viewable on mobile phones as well as computers.

Our proprietary cycle indicator is UP. To public readers of our updates, our cycle indicator is one of the most effective timing tool for traders and investors. It is not perfect, because periodically the market can be more volatile and can result in short term...

Gold has surged dramatically in recent weeks, accelerated by Russia’s barbaric invasion of Ukraine. That catapulted gold to a huge upside breakout from a gigantic bullish chart formation. Gold’s resulting strong upside momentum has propelled the gold miners’ stocks...

This month, the Fed is expected to hike interest rates. Contrary to popular belief, the tightening doesn't have to be adverse for gold. What does history show?

Rick Rule joins us to discuss the impact of the Russia invasion of Ukraine on commodity markets. We discuss Silver, Gold, Uranium, Oil, Natural Gas and the political consequences for the US Dollar.

As part of the sanctions against Russia, seven Russian banks have been cut off from SWIFT. We start by discussing what SWIFT is, and then the implications of completely cutting Russia out of SWIFT.

After the war-driven gold rally, oil is starting to outperform. History between these two has already shown that someone may suffer. Many suggest: gold miners.

The battle of Ukraine is still going on. Russian troops took control of Kherson, a city of about 300,000 in the south of Ukraine, but other main cities haven’t been captured yet. Ukrainian soldiers even managed to conduct some counter-offensive actions near the...

There are indications that this is the one when the gold cartel loses control. What makes me think this, the action in silver and mining stocks. Energy is becoming concerning. Anytime oil goes up too far, too fast, you can usually expect a recession to start several...

As anyone who has watched the precious metals for any amount of time will tell you, price rallies on geopolitical concerns rarely hold. The same might be true today. However, do not make the mistake of thinking that the current rally in gold and silver is based...

Another awesome day begins, for the world’s gold community. For the fiat community, the day begins in a more disturbing way. It begins with more silly cheerleading for FATCA stormtroopers, more attempts to ignore massive pressures on inflation, and more reckless...
