Market Report: Waiting for Godot

Alternatively, watching paint dry. That's how it has felt this week with gold's volatility slowing to a crawl ahead of Thanksgiving yesterday and the Swiss gold referendum on Monday.

Silver: What COT Analysis Tells Us

November 25, 2014
By SilverSeek

Each week the CFTC publishes a Commitments of Traders Report (COT) in which “non-commercial” and “commercial” long and short futures positions are reported. Many people have expressed doubts as to the validity, accuracy and consistency of the data. However, my experience is that the data is mostly relevant, accurate, and useful in the long term, but not necessarily important each week.

Prices of Gold/Silver Companies to Double from Here?

November 20, 2014
By SilverSeek

Silver is down 70% from its high of $48.70 an ounce back in April of 2011. And the calls from the mainstream are for silver prices to fall farther, as the Federal Reserve has stopped printing paper money and inflation is nowhere in sight. I beg to differ.

U.S. Mint Reports on Silver Eagles: Huge Demand & Weekly Rationing

November 20, 2014
By Steve St. Angelo, SRSrocco

After the huge take-down in the price of silver on October 31st, demand for Silver Eagles skyrocketed. Then on Nov. 5th after silver was knocked down another 5%, the U.S. Mint suspended sales of Silver Eagles.

Gold, Silver, Crude and S&P Ending Wedge Patterns

November 18, 2014
By Chris Mullen, Chief Content Manager

Gold and silver look like they have bottomed – again. Perhaps this time it will be a real bottom instead of another fake-out like December 2013 and June 2014. Demand is strong for physical gold and silver, but the supply of naked paper shorts on the COMEX is even larger. This will change. I see prices under $20 as a strong buy zone since I believe that $100 silver is only a few years away.

An Open Letter to Mining Company Executives

November 14, 2014
By Chris Mullen, Chief Content Manager

Please accept my sincere condolences on the continuing suppression of metal prices. As a stock holder in your company, I share your concern that an unrelenting environment of depressed metal prices will inevitably cause damage to your mining company. I will not insult your intelligence by dwelling on the long term solution that you are so very well aware of (i.e., reduce mining output at low prices, both as a way to pressure prices higher, and as a way to conserve your precious in ground…

“Paper Gold” and Its Effect on the Gold Price

November 13, 2014
By Chris Mullen, Chief Content Manager

Gold dropped to new lows of $1,130 per ounce last week. This is surprising because it doesn’t square with the fundamentals. China and India continue to exert strong demand on gold, and interest in bullion coins remains high. I explained in my October article in The Casey Report that the Comex futures market structure allows a few big banks to supply gold to keep its price contained.
