Wow! Ich hätte wirklich nie gedacht, dass die amerikanische Wirtschaft so schnell wieder erholen würde. Laut den neuesten U.S. wirtschaftlichen Daten hat es ein eher zurückhaltend Rückgang der Arbeitslosenquote sowie eine enorme Steigerung des Verbraucherkredits. Interessant. In der Zwischenzeit in Europa haben Dinge schlimmer bekommen die mehrjährige hohe der Dollar gegenüber dem Euro unterstützt. Eigentlich ist es der Dollar-Sicherheit, die häufig als eines der wichtigsten Argumente bestätigt wird, die die US-Wirtschaft erholt ist. Die Wahrheit ist, dass die Wirtschaft kaum überleben ist und der Dollar klettert aufgrund einer Logik, die nicht verwandt mit ihrer wirtschaftlichen Stärke ist. Es ist wahr, dass die Eurozone und die Probleme die globale Wirtschaft beeinflussen. Es ist schon sehr anspruchsvoll für sie Entscheidungen über Grenzen und nationalen Anliegen während ihrer Verhandlungen in Auflösung begriffen sind. Und die internationalen Medien wurde mit ihnen jeden Schritt des Weges. Aus diesem Grund haben die Unruhen in Amerika zweite Stufe trotz unseres Seins wahrscheinlich schlimmer als über die Meere getroffen. Die Anlage, mit denen wir unsere Probleme (über die Druckerpresse) zu lösen, haben half nicht gezwungen, die Bedenken von Angesicht zu Angesicht zu begegnen, denen Europa zu kämpfen hatte. Diese Gelassenheit wurde als ein starker Punkt missverstanden und der Dollar hat sicheren Hafen Status als Folge genossen. Dies ist sehr Self-fulfilling in der Natur, da Anleger vom Euro zum Dollar welche dann steigt die Nachfrage spiegeln ausgeführt werden. Die Erweiterung rechtfertigt die Wahl zunächst kaufen und anschließend induziert mehr Käufer, die Nutzen aus seinen Appreciation…until suchen, die es endet. Es ist die US-Treasuries, die diese sicheren Hafen Dollar Investitionen erhalten. Folglich sind die U.S. Zinsen viel niedriger als sie alternativ wäre. Um fair zu sein, tragen die Vereinigten Staaten und Italien entsprechende Konfiguration der Staatsverschuldung. Trotz dieser Zinssätze in Washington sind derzeit 600 Basispunkte weniger als in Rom. Dies bedeutet, dass die Amerikaner können leihen und zu verbringen mehr frei. Letztlich ist diese zusätzliche Schulden finanziert Verbrauch Äquivalent zu einem Anstieg der Beschäftigung und BIP, das wiederum bedeutet, dass die positive wirtschaftliche Antwort bestätigt den Dollar zu einem repräsentativen Status, unterstützen damit den Teufelskreis. Italien wäre nicht die Mühen unterzogen werden, die sie heute haben, wenn die Preise nun so niedrig waren wie noch vor zwei Jahren. Ihre Budgets noch zähmbar sein würde und ihre Kreditkosten würde nie erhöht haben. Ebenso, wenn die Vereinigten Staaten höhere Preise hätte, würde dann unser Bild nicht so sonnig aussehen. Konzipieren Sie für eine Sekunde, wenn Preise, dass nur 200 Basispunkte Higher…that beeinträchtigen würde waren, Verbraucher, Hausbesitzer, Unternehmen und Regierungen, die sich auf preisgünstige Finanzierung verlassen. Dinge wäre für uns im Vergleich zu Europa exponentiell ärmer. Ausschließlich sprechend, und so schrecklich wie es klingen mag, sind die Probleme in Europa gut für uns. Nein, nicht wir, die Wirtschaft, um genau zu sein. Und nur für den kurzfristigen. Hinter dem Horizont, Anleihe- und mehr Geld zur Finanzierung von Ausgaben und Regierung roter Tinte nicht erleichtert die US Wirtschaft wirtschaftliche Harmonie erreichen. Würden, wie durch ein Wunder die Winde anders wehen, der Dollar würde zusammenbrechen, Zinssätze und Verbraucherpreise steigen würde und die US-Wirtschaft in der Rezession stolpern würde.

Wir haben es mit Dot Com Aktien und Immobilien gelebt und die Zeit kommt für den Dollar und US-Treasuries. Abweichend von Europa wird es zusammen, wir warten immer noch auf eine Katastrophe.

Gold Prices Gain on Greek Debt Deal (Update 2)

2012-02-11T05:09:00.002-08:00

AppId is over the quota The Street By Alix Steel February 9, 2012 NEW YORK
(TheStreet ) — Gold prices were popping higher after Greece secured a debt
deal and as the Bank of England pumped more money into the system. Gold for
April delivery was up $19.60 at $1,750.90 an ounce at the Comex division of the
New York Mercantile Exchange. The gold price has traded as high as $1,755.50 and
as low as $1,728.30 an ounce while the spot price was adding $16, according to
Kitco's gold index. Silver prices were 58 cents higher at $34.28 an ounce
while the U.S. dollar index was 0.26% lower at $78.49. Gold prices popped on the
news that Greece has secured a debt deal, which would implement austerity
measures and secure its second bailout of 130 billion euros. Gold were volatile
on the news initially popping, then giving back gains then moving firmly higher.
Once gold crossed the $1,750 its also possible that buy stops were triggered
where traders buy gold at this predetermined price. The question still remains
— is this enough to save Greece or will the country have to leave the euro.
The country still has to come to a bond swap deal with private bondholders and
the European Central Bank to help its debt load. On the one hand, if Greece is
forced to leave the euro the currency could rally, "it's like trimming the
cancer off," says Phil Streible, senior commodities broker at RJO Futures, and
would most likely support gold . Although if risk appetite returns in full
force, gold might be forgotten as a safe haven asset. If Greece leaves the euro
and all hell breaks loose and the euro plummets, gold could sink along with it
at least in the short term. Mario Draghi, head of the ECB, already said in a
press conference today that the economic outlook remains "uncertain" and
"downside risks remain." Also supporting gold was the news that the Bank of
England added to its quantitative easing program by 50 billion pounds bringing
the total to 325 billion pounds. The central bank left interested rates
unchanged at 0.5% while the European Central Bank left its rate at 1%. Gold
prices rose slowly after the news, but many experts had been expecting a bigger
pop in the price with central banks unabashedly pumping money into the system.
"The reality is is that it's all about the euro," says Streible, "with
the fragile state all of Europe is in right now, any sign of quantitative
easing, or QE, is probably too little at this point … more types of stimulus
plans means more spending cuts are soon to follow." More stimulus can trigger
a rush into gold as a hard asset, an alternative to the paper currency being
devalued, but austerity measures bring in the deflation worry, where gold tends
to selloff initially. Rick Trotman, senior research analyst at MLV & Co., thinks
that gold prices will do fine this year. "I don't expect a blockbuster year
but ending the year between $1,700-$1,800 an ounce is realistic." Trotman does
think that if Greece secures its second bailout and nails down a debt deal it
would really depend on how good or bad that deal is. "If everyone is really
happy with it, gold could trade down," he says, "but if it looks good then
Portugal will decide to step up to the plate as well hoping to get a really good
deal and gold would trade up on that." Trotman also says gold will start
looking to the U.S. presidential elections in November. Trotman suggests that if
the polls keep leaning towards President Obama that that would be good for gold
as "Democrats would spend a lot of money," as the dollar is devalued gold
rises in response. "A Republican President would be bad for the price of gold
," asserts Trotman. James Steel, analyst at HSBC in a recent 2012 gold outlook
report says that it's not just the U.S. going through an election cycle.
"The political process will result in the election or selection of a hose of
leaders in countries that represent more than 50% of the world's GDP." The
political upheaval ranges from the U.S. to France to Egypt to Russia.
"Uncertainty about changes in government may boost safe-haven demand for gold
, in our view." Another wild card playing out for gold Thursday was the news
that inflation in China rose to a three month high at 4.5%. The higher reading
is good for gold as it might push consumers into buying the precious metal as a
safer place to invest as real interest rates are a negative 1%. However, the
higher reading might also confirm the central bank's reluctance to lower
interest rates, to firmly commit to a loose monetary policy. China has been
pushing its banks to lend more into order to avoid a hard landing, or strong
slowing of growth. M2 supply in the country, cash in circulation plus savings,
checking and any travelers checks, grew 13.6% at the end of 2011 to 85.16
trillion yuan. This trend will need to continue to support strong gold buying.
The country imported 427 tons of gold in 2011 and consumed 787 tons. Gold mining
stocks were rallying Thursday. Barrick Gold was up more than 1% at $49.64 while
Newmont Mining was 0.64% higher at $61.90. Other gold stocks, Gold corp and
Yamana Gold were trading higher at $47.63 and $16.676 respectively. View the

Naysayers Devices Can’t Compete With Impending Gold Prices

2012-02-11T05:09:00.001-08:00

AppId is over the quota Relax. Breathe. Think. These are the actions most gold
bugs need to practice if they want to have the success they know is approaching
with future gold prices. Many investors are thwarted and concerned that gold is
giving the impression of remaining stagnant. This price interruption is
repetitive and since 2001 it has always been able to bounce back to a new higher
level. If you're a naysayer, then it's over for you, but if you're a gold
bug, you're only concern is when it will rise again. Obviously, a definite
factor that would incite another surge into gold would be something concerning
the global financial economy, but until that occurs, it may be wise to reflect
upon the size and length of previous corrections and how long it took gold to
attain new highs subsequently. Sound judgment indicates that it would take more
time to approach new records, but let's try and validate that supposition with
the facts and decide if there were any criteria in earlier recoveries that would
give us some inklings that we can use now. The precious yellow metal made its
mark on September 5 at $1,895 an ounce and up until now has dropped as low as
$1,531 which occurred on December 29. This is a decline of 19.2%. To establish
how long it could take to break $1,895 once more, let's look at how long it
took new highs to be reached subsequent to previous huge corrections. It was in
2006 that following a total decline of 22.6% and a year and four months later
that gold exceeded its old high. Then after the 2008 collapse, it was a year and
six months later before gold reached a new record. Our current correction more
closely echoes the one in 2003. Subsequent to a 16.2% plunge, gold was in step
with the old high seven months after. Two months more were needed to stay above
it. And, what about now? If we were to use the same ratio from the 2003
correction and recovery, we would be looking at something like the following. If
it took 29 weeks and four days to reach a new high after a 16.2% correction, a
19.2% pullback would take 35 weeks and 0 days which would be on Monday, May 7,
2012. Of course, a precise date is simply a guess considering there are other
factors that are influencing gold prices. Gold could fall under the $1,531 low
if the necessity for cash and liquidity forces large investors to resume
selling. But, also, Europe and the United States could continue their printing
of money on a widespread scale and send gold soaring within just hours. Bottom
line is if we don't reach $1,900 for another four months, it's okay.
Remember, a wise investor is very calm and judgmental at a moment like this.
Just contemplate the following reason for holding strong. It has been evidenced
that once gold breaks through its old high, the current price will disappear
forever which means you will never be able to buy gold at the existing price
again. Albeit apparent, let it register in your brain. Buying at the present
time at $1,600 and then observing the price go down to something like $1,500
would not be enjoyable, but it will probably reach $2,000 or higher before the
year's over, in no way being part of the $1,600s cycle again. Should this
occur, the next four months will be the very last time you can acquire at those
levels. After that, it will be much, much higher. If 2003 proves to be the model
in our example and the rebound ratio akin to what is going to occur, we have
approximately four months to purchase as much gold as we want before it is no
longer on sale. What could happen? Maybe by this time next year the gold price
will not be under $2,000 an ounce unless, of course, it is in the form of a
different currency. Another thing you must keep in mind is to disregard the lie
about the gold market having ended. If it does not reach $1,900 until May at
least we understand the logic behind it. But when September comes and the price
is mounting persistently, you will be ready, but they won't. Common sense
tells us that a new high in the gold price is bound to occur in the very near
future simply due to the chief currencies being so unstable as well as countries
overwhelmed with debt. And, just think, they are all fiat currencies contingent
upon government fiddling and negligence. Undeniably speaking, the crucial high
could be shockingly higher than what we could ever imagine. Prepare yourself and
don't allow the naysayers to influence your thinking with their incompetence.
Gold prices will certainly rise to extraordinary levels. Tags: Gold Prices,

Der aktuelle Goldpreis ist würdig von dieser Beratung

2012-02-11T05:09:00.000-08:00

Die Eurozone hat keine Quick-Fix-me-Up. Und um das Ganze abzurunden, die
Vereinigten Staaten, die keiner liefert besser wird ihre Hilfe wenn wir unsere
Hilfe dringend benötigen. Es ist alles in der freien Now…we sind die Rettung
der Eurozone von Dollar-Swaps mit der Europäischen Zentralbank. Was ist mit
Gold dann? Sollte nicht haben es genommen und stieg mit ihm? Nun, gibt es einige
einfache Gründe, warum Gold nicht eskaliert ist. Die Nummer eine Verteidigung
hier ist, was mit MF Global aufgetreten ist. Es war der siebtgrößte Insolvenz
in Geschichte der Vereinigten Staaten, die eine hohe Menge der Liquidation der
Rohstoffe Futures-Kontrakte, gegen das gelbe Edelmetall. Die meisten
institutionelle Investoren fanden sich gegen eine Wand und waren verpflichtet,
unabhängig von ihrer persönlichen Wünsche zu verkaufen. Es ist genauso wenn
große Stürze in der Börse treiben können, Fonds und anderen wichtigsten
Investoren zu verkaufen ein wenig Gold zu Erhöhung die Bargeld-Ebene für
Margin Calls oder Recovery-Anforderungen anzupassen. Eine andere berechtigte
Entschuldigung, warum Gold ist nicht, wo es sein sollte ist aufgrund des US
Dollar steigen. Die Hauptstadt, die aus der Eurozone Rohrverschraubung ist hat
seinen Platz wie in US-Anleihen finden, aber das bedeutet zunächst einen
Austausch in Dollar Dollar Inkrement erklärt. Eine Einflußgröße, die Gold
aktien beeinträchtigt ist, dass es Steuer-Verlust verkaufen Saison. Maßnahmen
orientieren, am besten Vorteil in Bezug auf Steuern sind. Fonds verkaufen
genauso gut, ihre beste Gewinner in Fortschritte für das Jahr geschlossen und
Quartalsberichte mehr rentabel aussehen. Es ist aus den vorgenannten Gründen,
die Gold in stehenden Gewässern ist. Das bedeutet nicht, dass Gold unerwartet
Vermögenswert unproduktive Sicherheit betrachtet wird. Es bedeutet auch nicht,
dass die meisten der Welt als gesetzliches Zahlungsmittel ist nicht mehr im Wert
reduziert wird und nicht die Staatsschulden weltweit Angelegenheiten
ausgearbeitet sind definitiv nicht die Zinssätze ermutigend sind. Nein, Nein,
No…the wesentliche Wherefores des Seins der stolze Besitzer von Gold sind noch
einwandfrei. Der Rest ist eine Show. Verfangen Sie nicht darin. Wenn wir auf
Gold des aktuellen Preis Leistung Blick und bringe sie ins Verhältnis, finden
wir, dass es am 5. September bei $1.895 und seit Höhepunkt dann für etwa
neunzig Tage Rückfall wurde hat. Dennoch setzen Sie Ihre ungeteilten
Aufmerksamkeit gegenüber der Hausse wichtigsten Dreimonats-Korrektur in
Korrelation zu den wichtigsten Neigung. Es ging wie folgt: das kostbare gelbe
Metall fiel 20 % ab 1. August 31. Oktober 2008 wurde der größte kaskadierende
Abstieg in unserer jüngsten Bullenmarkt. Trotzdem ging es letztlich jenseits
unserer Erwartungen, wenn auch viele Investoren und Industrie-Stärkungszauber,
die glauben, dass es seinen höchsten Punkt erreicht hatte. Zum Abschluss
Quartal 2011 endete hinter 5,5 % über dem ehemaligen Viertel. Der Rat hier ist,
nicht zulassen, dass die Gegenwart in die Zukunft zu beeinflussen wo Märkte
betroffen sind. Kurzfristige Volatilität und langfristige Kräfte sind zwei
völlig verschiedenen Arenen und müssen entsprechend getrennt werden. Wenn Sie
nur hören, was jetzt geschieht, werden Sie schließlich Entscheidungen treffen,
die in der Zukunft wirst du bereuen. Wir wissen alle, dass die Preise niedriger
handeln könnte, weshalb Hauptstadt versteckt ist. Wenn diese Hausse gipfelt,
wird unsere aktuelle Rückzug höchstwahrscheinlich viel höhere Preise in den
jeweiligen Monaten und Jahren ähneln. Wieder, ist, warum Sie die aktuelle gold
Preise eine stehlen nutzen müssen. Unterm Strich ist, bleiben Sie ruhig und
nicht zu viel in die kurzfristigen entziehen. Es ist über den Horizont schauen
wo Sie den gold enen Regenbogen finden. Tags: Aktuellen Gold preis, Aktueller

Gold Preisentwicklung Bullen für das neue Jahr sehr glücklich zu machen

2012-02-11T02:47:00.003-08:00

Letztes Jahr um diese Zeit wurde die London gold Fix $1405 und derzeit ist es
ein wenig unter $1600, also egal was jemand sagt der Gold preis Trend sehr gut
unter den schrecklichen globale Währungskrise überlebt hat. Die Neinsager, die
sagte, es sei vorbei, ich halt da sagen nicht nur ist es aber weiterhin seine
Trajektorie im Jahr 2012. Die unnachgiebigen Grundlagen, denen von Gold
getrieben wird weiterhin ins neue Jahr und möglicherweise schon seit einiger
Zeit nach so dass wir wahrscheinlich einige schöne Preise für gold kommen
suchen. Sein Verhalten wurde von den $1920.50 hohe außerordentliche trotz der
massiven deleveraging Sell-off im September. Es vor kurzem gesenkt wieder auf
$1534.06 aufgrund weitere Entschuldung in Verbindung mit der Montage Unbehagen
über die Europäische Union-Ergebnis und wurde stark durch die Bären
ausgebuht, aber es schafft noch durchscheinen. Und es wird auf seine Helligkeit
mit der grundlegenden Grundton Schulden Schwellung weiter als des besten Weg
für die Regierungen von ihren Schulden zu erleichtern. Wie wird dieses Problem
auf? Mit Liquiditätsspritzen kaufen, dass die Schulden in einer immerwährenden
nachteiligen Art und Weise. Dies ist natürlich nicht die Lösung für die
überwältigende Schuld, sondern die Vereinigten Staaten initialisiert es (nach
Japan) und viele andere folgten in Anzug. Japans Ticket Schulden Freiheit
erzwingen Zinssätze auf NULL und halten sie es durch das Drucken von Geld und
Kauf von Anleihen mit diesem Papier. In der Tat, nähert sich die Verschuldung
in Japan ¥ 1 Billiarde. Wenn das nicht genug ist, ist ihre Bilanz ¥ 138
Billionen. Den USA Federal Reserve Bilanz ist 2,7 Billionen Dollar übertreffen.
Die schlimmsten der schlimmsten, hat aber zu der Eurozone (die in letzter Zeit
Mittelpunkt erhalten hat). Ihre Bilanz entwickelte sich in noch nie da gewesenen
2,5 Billionen Euro. Und sie sagen, dass die quantitativen Lockerung ist nicht
die Antwort! Also was, dann entsteht? Es gibt diejenigen innerhalb der EZB, die
unterstützen QE um eine weitere Rezession zu vermeiden. Es war nur Dezember
wenn die EZB aus 489) Milliarden Euro ($ 638 im 3 Jahr LRGs 523 Banken innerhalb
der Eurozone übergeben. Es nicht sehr lange und jetzt leben unter weitere
Schwierigkeiten und der Eurozone verbreitet haben begann ihre Entfaltung noch
einmal. Es wurde erwartet, dass die Organe, diese große Menge günstiges Geld
gelten würde, um ihre eigenen Schulden zu kaufen, so wie die USA Banken die
Erträge aus Hypothek unterstützt Wertpapiere Verkauf der Federal Reserve in
US-Treasuries gebohrt. Alles läuft darauf hinaus, den privaten Sektor, der
letztlich die Regierung mit Mitteln, die von der Regierung verwaltet finanziert.
Als Vermittler dieses Prozesses ist der Umsatz für die Banken lukrativ. Null
Zinsen kommen mit direkt Und jetzt soll die Federal Reserve ihre
ZIRP-Unterstützung ab Mitte 2013 über bis 2014 zu verlängern. Und wir
erwarten mehr, sicher. Blick auf Japan, begann mit ihren niedrigen Zinssätzen,
die angeblich nur ein bisschen dauern, und sie haben seit zwei Jahrzehnten
beibehalten. Auch die großen Kapitalgesellschaften rechnen riesige Preise für
Gold im Jahr 2012: Gold man Sachs glauben, dass sie bis zu $1 Wanderung werden,
erwartet 810Barclays dann steigen bis zu $2000, AndUBS, $2.050. Solange Zinsen
so flach, wie sie sind, wird der langfristige Trend für Gold sehr gut sein.
Nicht viele Dinge sind sicher auf dem Markt, aber der Preis des Gold ene ist
bemüht, um seine Marke in diesem Jahr zu machen. Hinzu kommt, dass die
Weiterentwicklung der Schulden, die monetäre Basis und Zentralbank Bilanzen und
vor allem die Tendenz weitgehend positiv Angebot und Nachfrage, und was wir
suchen ist eine fabelhafte langfristige Trend für Gold . Es kann nur nach oben.

Verwenden der Goldpreis heute zu Ihrem Vorteil

2012-02-11T02:47:00.001-08:00

Die entwickelte Welt ist über die Board…as Wenn Sie nicht, dass Wissen in
einem heillosen Durcheinander! Aber es ist anstrengend, lesen Sie weiter über
wie Zentralbanken achtlos versuchen, uns glauben, dass alles in Ordnung an der
Westfront. Es kommt unten, alle davon. Als für die andere Seite des Atlantiks
tragen sie sogar mehr, als sie durch Steuererhebung denkbar entsprechende
können auf ihrer gefährlichen Ausgaben Gewohnheiten. In Wirklichkeit sind sie
ziemlich verarmt, zusammen mit den Vereinigten Staaten. Wie das
US-Finanzministerium berichtet, die USA beendet das Jahr mit insgesamt Schulden
von 15,2 Billionen Dollar, die in die USA Schulden zum BIP übersetzt 100 %
übertraf. Es ist lustig, aber, wie normalerweise, wenn eine Bank nicht mehr
zahlungsfähig ist ein Standard ergeben würde, aber eine Rettungspaket wird
heute die gleiche Effect…or haben, so sie denken. Sie sind selbst zum Narren
und verzweifelt versuchen, uns zusammen zu ziehen. Und nicht nur das, wenn die
Zentralbank nicht liefern unkompliziert und offen Hilfe für ein Bankinstitut,
kein Problem, weil eine Zentralbank dann dunkel, heimliche Hilfe verwalten
können. Die Hintertür Rettungsaktion beweist dies direkt. Der Euro-Zone kann
nicht von der Europäischen Zentralbank geholfen werden, so die US Federal
Reserve in das inkognito Bild kommen. Swap-Vereinbarungen als undercover-Agent
verwendet wird, akzeptiert die EZB Kredite von der Federal Reserve, die es dann
an Banken in Europa behaftet Kredite. Sequenziell, nutzen "finanziell
ruinierten" Banken die wirtschaftliche Finanzierung die ertragsstarke Anleihen
von Griechenland, Italien, Spanien und dem Rest der Eurozone zu kaufen. Die
Kette ist klar. Die Federal Reserve ist Griechenland, sowie jede andere
bankrotten Bank in der Eurozone ausschöpfen. Wer zahlt? Ja, wir wissen.
Steuerzahler werden verlieren ihr hart verdientes Geld und danach noch mehr
verlieren, wenn diese Banken auf lange Sicht Standard, die wahrscheinlich nicht
die ohnehin weit voraus ist. Also, du bist ein Pessimist. Interpretieren Sie
gut, das dann: • (Vor ein paar Wochen) Dollar-Swaps zwischen der Notenbank und
der EZB war nur 2,4 Milliarden Dollar. • (Woche endet 14. Dezember 2011)
Dollar wechselt zwischen der Fed und der EZB 54 Milliarden US-Dollar • (Woche
endet 21. Dezember 2011) Dollar wechselt zwischen der Fed und der EZB war bis
weitere 8 Milliarden Dollar Die Federal Reserve hat nur 62 Milliarden US-Dollar
in der Eurozone, sondern als die Anzahl Wanderungen investiert, und es wird, sie
uns einen weiteren Grund, Gold zu kaufen geben werden. Es scheint, als ob der
Aufruf des Tages ist, Schulden mit dem Drucken von Geld zu lösen. Tun, wie der
Titel dieser Artikel Suggests…use der Gold preis heute zu Ihrem Vorteil. Die
Hausse, die direkt vor Ihren Augen stattfindet ist eigentlich die Geschichte in
der Herstellung. Würden wir am letzten Tag des Jahres Zitate seit der Wende des
21. Jahrhunderts aussehen, ist es klar, dass Gold selbst jedes Jahr übertroffen
hat. Von $273.60 im Jahr 2000 auf $1566.90 im Jahr 2011 es hat nur bis stetig

Gold & Silver Prices | Weekly Recap 6-10 February

2012-02-11T02:47:00.000-08:00

Gold and silver prices changed directions during the week as they have both
shifted from gain to loss throughout the week with no clear trend or direction.
The recent developments in Greece were that its parliament had passed an
austerity plan. But this plan was rejected by the EU ministers of finance as
sufficient steps for Greece to receive the next rescue funds. Over the weekend
Greece added some new provisions to the austerity plan and waits for the
approvals of the EU leaders and IMF. All awhile these developments over the week
may have tilted the direction of the Euro; this in turn may have also affect the
direction of precious metals. The ECB kept the interest rate of the EU unchanged
at 1%. Since there were speculations of a rate reduction, this news may have
helped rally gold and silver prices on Thursday.

Invest Central Banks…Invest…For Gold Prices Will Pursue Their Quest

2012-02-11T00:16:00.002-08:00

AppId is over the quota Gold prices have begun their mission. And central banks
are helping. Last week, the gold price was incited by the great greenback as
occurred in late 2007 when gold established a 55% 6-month dash. The impulse was
portrayed as a small rate cut of 0.25%, in 2007, which indicated the Federal
Reserve's shift from increasing to damaging cash savings' paid returns. The
Fed's next move of the zero-rate promise "took gold comfortably clear of the
50, 100, and 200-day moving averages, and opened up some big targets to the
upside", says one London technician. According to bullion bank Scotia Mocatta,
the earlier top of $1,700 has turned into a support level "with further key
support at the 200-day moving average at $1,645." To be able to appreciate the
whole scenario, one must look objectively because the inclination in who's
buying gold and why is quite apparent. According to data gathered by the
International Monetary Fund, gold bullion assets amongst the world's central
banks have risen to a 6-year high. Since 2008, emerging and developing nations
have accumulated their gold supply 25% by weight. And now, the West is a net
seller weighed down by debt. Marcus Grubb of the World Gold Council said this
week, "There's a perception perhaps that gold is no longer a crucial part of
the financial system in the way that it was under the Gold Standard before 1970,
1971. But in fact that's not really true. Because even with the ending of the
Gold Standard, gold remains as an asset held by the world's central
banks…and you've seen a trend recently for gold to become more and more a
part of the fabric of the financial system." Official reserves are responsible
for a large piece of this construction. Despite this, central banks manage a
dwindling proportion of what has been mined from the earth. Private ownership is
holding more weight, and there, as Marcus Grubb discerns, it is making much more
of an influence on how money and finance perform. To begin with, it is regular
citizens who have turned once again to gold as a financial asset, instead of the
embellishing store-of-value it had become by the 20th century's conclusion.
Accordingly, China's monster bank ICBC, for example, is holding gold for the
accumulation savings of 2.3 million citizens, a program developed in partnership
with the World Gold Council. However, institutional finance is becoming the
trend, and gold is now at the head of the Basel Committee on global banking,
submitted as a core asset for banks to hold and count as a Tier 1 holding for
their liquidity provisions. So it is that the revenue in London's bullion
market which is the center of the world's gold trade is larger at $240 billion
per day than all but the four most heavily traded currency pairs throughout the
world. In actuality, its liquidity can not be reached. Turkey's regulators
already endorse physical gold bullion as a Tier 1 asset for its commercial banks
commencing in November, with the cap of 10% worth approximately 5.5 billion Lira
($2.9 billion) as reported by Dow Jones. Furthermore, there are many more
investment exchanges that now approve gold as collateral which can act as down
payment by institutions against their commodity and other positions which are
leveraged. Indeed, gold bullion pays no interest. Nevertheless, in our
zero-yielding world, that only puts it to the fore of where the capital markets
are being guided by central-bank policy. It also does not enjoy much industrial
use (some 11% of global demand in 5 years), a fact which emphasizes its
exclusive store of value facet. Since it is yours and only yours when you
purchase it, gold is no one else's debt to reimburse or default. And, since it
is globally accepted as payment, it's very liquid and instantly priced.
Finally, being both scarce and imperishable…well, does it look like what we
use as money today? It wasn't so long ago that gold basically established the
world's monetary system in its entirety. With the exclusion of China, which
focused on silver as its safe haven, the tormented Gold Standard that first
followed WWI and, subsequently WWII, continued to see the value of central bank
gold stock immensely override the paper responsibilities with which those banks
corresponded to with other institutions. Just 30 years ago, which is about 10
years following what passed for a Gold Standard post-war, central bank's total
gold stock were approximately three times central-bank money reserves by value.
And now if we think about the past decade it is the 10 years in which gold
investment surpassed every other store of value hands down. Probably every
currency you can think of sacrificed 85% of its value in gold . Even with all
the money hot off the printing presses, gold reserves kept their own…and now
central banks are desperately trying to reach the amount they had back then.
They are purchasing at all cost which will only make gold prices continue in
their remarkable quest as one of, if not the best, investments of all time.

The Gold Price Will Blossom Even More…As the Economy Withers Away

2012-02-11T00:16:00.001-08:00

AppId is over the quota This year has seen higher gold prices just as the bears
were beginning to say told you so . Gold prices have increased by $175. How much
higher can they go or, rather, how much higher will they go? Precious metal
prices have surmounted much quicker than most other investment markets. For
there to be a growing tendency, new buyers must exist to uphold the impetus,
although precious metals appear in position to consider that sort of push from
an array of originators. It would have to be monetary policy that would invoke
the most change for increased precious metal investment demand. The central
banks of the world have uncompromisingly launched an inconceivable policy of
monetization since the 2008 global economic crisis. Even though they are
perceived as appropriate policies to fuel the global economy, these techniques
can also inflate it. Consequently, we're looking at a sum of about 10 trillion
dollars that has been fabricated because of these actions and the global economy
hasn't rebounded the way they would have liked. The markets' reaction to
this sum of easily printed money is really great for precious metals. Just as
when metals drew some support to tempt more consumers subsequent to the Federal
Reserve's meeting last week. Ben Bernanke made it clear that low interest
rates would remain at least for another two years. Furthermore, there could even
be another printing press run. Because of this, gold gained $68 for the week as
well as all precious metals receiving a boost overall. The financial community
perceives the Federal Reserve's monetary policies as convenient and conducive
for higher commodity values which, of course, include precious metals. The news
has stimulated investors to return to commodities. But, at the same time, low
interest rates also affect the US dollar relative to other currency exchange
rates. Commodity prices gain from a debilitated dollar, also constituting a
precarious climate within the markets. This goes for all assets that gain from
the security of greater yields. Additionally, the economy within the United
States is actually demonstrating something better than negative zero lately. The
GNP growth in last year's 4th quarter was to be moving at 2.8% which is the
highest since mid-2010. Even the housing sector is allegedly getting a tad
better. The jobless data has shifted slightly to the positive side with the
presidential election campaign around the corner. Maybe things will not blow up
so soon. The Eurozone predicament appears to be lessening and the range of the
crisis has reaped support from reports that Spain and Italy just might have some
new bond customers. Before this article culminates, we must save some space for
China. We already know that for the Lunar New Year the Chinese give gifts of
gold . But these gifts can not account alone for the existing increase in
China's gold buying. We can't say anything with conviction because China
does not publicize any of its gold trade data so it makes it a little tricky to
know their exact numbers. Yet, the numbers are rising because of the Hong Kong
released gold figures which evidence China is importing quite a bit from them.
Hong Kong Merchandise Trade Statistics, Domestic Exports and Re-exports: •
November 2011 China imported 102,779 kilograms of gold from Hong Kong •
October 2011 China imported 86,299 kilograms of gold from Hong Kong As the
Federal Reserve try their best (as they only know how) to stabilize the economy,
the manner in which they are proceeding will have as a consequence increased
inflation which will, obviously, higher the cost of raw materials. The economy
is still weak with a lot more that needs to be done. The fear of an economic
collapse is very real as the demand for gold as a store of value rises. We are
at a point where the environment is very ripe for the gold price as well as all
precious metals. This entry was posted on Friday, February 10th, 2012 at 10:55

Aktuelle Goldpreise sollte als ein Segen betrachtet werden

2012-02-11T00:16:00.000-08:00

Gibt es eine Geld-Kontraktion, die die US-Notenbank glaubt mit quantitativen
Lockerung wiederhergestellt werden würde. Das Problem ist, dass Zentralbanken
nicht totale Kontrolle haben, wie viel geschaffen werden sollte zusammen mit
Gewährleistung es geht, wo es am meisten benötigt wird. Es würde bedeuten,
dass das gesamte Bankensystem in vollständige Zusammenarbeit zu schaffen, dass
neues Geld in Richtung Verbraucher und kleine Unternehmen sowie dem
Wohnungsmarkt bewegt werden müssten. Die Tatsache, dass dies nicht geschehen
ist, ist gegen die Argumentation der quantitativen Lockerung und mit der
Kontraktion betreffen alle, aber die neue Welt, die Bewegung hat sich alle
Banken innerhalb der entwickelten Welt, aber an seiner Stelle sie setzen mehr
Holz ins Feuer. Es ist in den Weltmärkten, wo der Effekt in Erwägung gezogen
werden kann. Es gibt ein Ausblick auf die Volatilität, die nie existiert hat.
Die Vereinigten Staaten und Großbritannien zusammen mit dem Rest der
entwickelten Welt waren die Meister des Marktes von 1945 bis 2010. Dies erlaubt
ihnen einen hohen Rang weltweit die ihnen Kontrolle über die Finanzmärkte
weltweit zugelassen. Es ist die Entmachtung der gesamten Finanzwelt, die
Volatilität und Unsicherheit in den meisten Märkten geht weiter produzieren
wird. Die inkompatible Ziele der entwickelten im Vergleich zu entwickeln Welt
etablieren Pannen, die nicht auf lange Sicht flickten werden voraussichtlich. Es
läuft jetzt auf einen Kampf um die Kontrolle des Reichtums der Welt zwischen
West und Ost Entfaltung wo der Gewinnerseite Osten wahrscheinlich sein wird. Der
Wert der Währungen wird durch die Kraft der nationalen Volkswirtschaften
geregelt. In der Vergangenheit war es ein Land Zahlungsbilanz Wechselkurs seiner
Währung geführt, aber es wurde geändert, wenn die USA der Ölpreis an den
Dollar aufgenommen und seine Währung ausgestellt auf der ganzen Welt trotz der
unerbittlichen Handel Defizite. Die Staaten ausgewogen die Zahlungsbilanz der
USA, wenn Forderungen sie neu in der Welt führenden und liquidesten Märkte
investieren, die erlaubt die Zahl der Dollar verpflichtet wachsen, bis es als
der Reservewährung nur ganz flüssig und exklusiv, blieb. Es ist aus diesem
Grund haben wir jetzt-Verschuldung, die quer durch die entwickelte Welt völlig
unverhältnismäßig sind. Die Verringerung der Vermögenswerte beschädigt
nicht nur Werte, aber es hat auch betroffen, Vertrauen und glauben. Wenn
Zinssätze steigen wegen des dieses Verderbens glauben und glauben wollten,
würde Währungen und Kreditwürdigkeit Weg geben. Die einzige Sache
quantitativen Lockerung bedeutet Verzögerung ist der Anfang vom Ende. Aber
warten Sie! Nicht Zinsen nahe bei Null? Werden sollte nicht die Märkte
entwickelten Welt schweben? Sie sollten sein, sondern sie sind auf der Stelle
und für den letzten 24 Monaten getan haben. Eigenkapital Hausse haben die
Neigung zu bewegen, aber niemand ist daran interessiert, oder kümmert sich
viel. Im Mittelpunkt der Aufmerksamkeit ist jetzt auf weitere Deflation zu
verhindern und erwartet das Bankensystem zu bleiben. Die Märkte haben durch die
Federal Reserve versichert wurde, die dort ist, dass kein Zinssatz bis 2013
Wanderungen. Sollen die Märkte Ordnung bis dahin aber was danach passiert? Die
Stimmung ist nicht einer der Zukunft, Wachstum oder sogar Hoffnung. Aber eine
Transformation ist am Horizont. Die Entstehung von Asien verursachte eine
Verschiebung in Richtung Osten. Asien hat die entwickelte Welt in einer Vielzahl
von hergestellten Produkten, geistigen Kosten, geschwächt und im allgemeinen
Zeichnung aus viel von Wohlstand und Wachstum ist die Deflationierung der
entwickelten Welt. Sie wachsen in einem schnelleren Tempo, entwickeln mehr und
Zahl der entwickelten Welt und kann auf ein Zehntel des Einkommens der
normalerweise müssen was die entwickelte Welt ertragen. Auch wenn sie die
rechtliche Exchange-Kosten ihrer Währung gegenüber anderen von 20, 30 oder
sogar 50 % des chinesischen Yuan erweitern, wird dieser Trend wahrscheinlich
verlängern. Was ist falsch mit dem Westen? Sie sind stark angewiesen, nach
welcher Bestimmung geworden, die ihre Märkte, Banken und Währungen treffen
können. Es passiert einfach so, dass das Vertrauen, das sie benötigen stark
unreine zwischen 2007 und 2011 wurde. Da die Nachweise so grundlegend sind,
erwarten wir nicht dieses Vertrauen neu zu entwickeln, es sei denn, es ist eine
Erholung des Wachstums in der entwickelten Welt wie ihre Finanzen restauriert
und Vermögenswerte vollständig ausgeglichen. Leider, dies würde bedeuten, ein
Ende der neuen Welt, ein und nach unten macht, Reichtum und Kontrolle fließen
zurück in der entwickelten Welt. Dies ist nicht geschehen. Wir müssen uns auf
das Schlimmste vorbereiten. Wie Europa und den Vereinigten Staaten haben die
gefühllos Essenz unerträglich Verschuldung und einem Rückgang der
Wirtschaftskraft zu konfrontieren, muss die entwickelte Welt zu erkennen, dass
es ein Wechsel zu asiatischen Währungen wird. Unsere Seite der Welt müssen
bestätigen abnehmenden Lebensstandard und Kontraktionen zu vermarkten, sofern
sie asiatische diejenigen umarmen sich. Der Prozess wird weiterhin quälende,
aber unausweichlich, wie China vor allem im globalen, wirtschaftlichen
Vormachtstellung entwickelt. Diese Änderungen bedeuten auch, dass die
Strukturen der entwickelten Welt und Finanzinstrumente auch macht, Einfluss und
Wert verlieren werden. Die Ängste produzieren diese Anpassungen können nur
ohne Markt Pannen, gedeihen, wenn die Welt ausländischer International
vertrauenswürdige Ressourcen verwendet, um Werte zu erhalten, wenn Änderungen
auftreten. Edelmetalle werden Teil dieser Geschichte. Es ist unvermeidlich. Die
Macht der Zentralbanken der entwickelten Welt fehlt, wird die Möglichkeit,
Werte und Preise beeinflussen nicht mehr vorhanden. Wir sind sicher, dass China
den USA oder Europa zu steuern, seinen Reichtum nicht zulassen wird. China auch
gerne Gold und fördert ihren Bürgern eine Menge davon zu kaufen. Als von
diesem Moment sind Edelmetalle und andere Finanzmärkte in Turbulenzen, so viel
wie eine, als die Welt verändert vorstellen. Die Turbulenzen ist eine Mischung
aus Anlage Wert Kontraktion und festen entstehenden Welt und Zentralbanken
Verwirrung, die durch die Preise nicht beeinflusst wird. Allerdings, wenn der
Staub gelegt hat, freuen Sie uns auf Gold und Silber, mit dem Fluss zu gehen.
Abweichend von der Wahrscheinlichkeit der weitere Abstieg wird davon
ausgegangen, dass die weiteren Abwärtsrisiken nicht die Edelmetall-Märkte
aufzugeben verdienen, da das Aufwärtspotenzial potenziell so außergewöhnlich
ist. Es ist eine vielversprechende Zukunft voraus für Gold , weshalb aktuelle
Gold preis als ein Segen und sonst nichts gesehen werden sollte. Tags: Aktuellen

The Perfect Investment: 2.9% US Government Guaranteed with No Minimum Investment

2012-02-10T23:32:00.001-08:00

dow2664

What would you think of an investment with the following characteristics: 1. Almost 3% average annualized return on your investment 2. Inflation-proof 3. Short term or long term investment: your choice 4. Guaranteed by the United States Government 5. No minimum investment 6. An easily transferable bearer investment with no registration required 7. The investment will never go down in value Can you guess what this investment is? It’s the Forever Stamp, the stamp issued by the US Post Office is used to purchase one ounce of postage, no matter how high the price of postage rises, even if the postage rate rises to $20 per ounce. This price of first class postage just went up on January 22 from 44 cents to 45 cents. It was only bumped up by a penny but it still works out to a 2.1% increase. Postage was 39 cents an ounce in January of 2007. If you look at the increase in the cost for one ounce of first class postage over the last five years, it works out to an average annual increase of 2.9%. You can still buy these stamps and take advantage of this ‘investment’. Over the long term, with inflation inevitable, postage rates will continue to increase. If you still pay a lot of bills by mail, or you own a small company that does a lot of mass mail-outs, or you are part of a club or group that sends out printed monthly newsletters, then maybe it would be worthwhile to buy some of these stamps.

GOLD dropped $15.70 to $1,723.30 and silver lost 30.8c, ending at 3357.6c. Both SILVER and the GOLD PRICE continue to dig in their heels and give little ground. Gold dropped as low as $1,705.2 today, but plainly many idlers sat at $1,705 waiting to buy gold, and did, so it shot right back up and ended the day clinging to $1,725 support — a little over the edge, but clinging still. From here $1,725 will become resistance, not support. SILVER ‘s low today came at 3318, and it has given back almost all the week’s gains and again faces 3300c. Expect more weakness next week from both metals. When/if silver breaks 3300c, as it likely will, it will drop faster than gold, taking the gold/silver ratio higher. I would buy silver (or gold) whenever that ratio reaches 57.50. Gold is not likely to drop lower than $1,680 – $1,650, nor silver below 3000c. The market is handing you a last chance buying opportunity. Don’t let it pass you by. ‘Twas not a good week for stocks or gold or anything else much. Almost as exciting as a market in August, but even a market going nowhere tells us something. Stocks soldiered away this week trying to burst through that May 2011 high but in the end couldn’t beat 12,900 — it beat them. And the closing (or near closing) of the Greek Debt Deal did not, as stock salesmen and assorted well-paid touts have been promising, usher in Fat City For Stocks. Rather, it brought only weight loss, disappointment, and the search for another chimerical rationale. Dow today fell 89.23 (0.69%) and barely held on above 12,800 at 12,801.23. Odd, odd, passing odd: the S&P500 lost EXACTLY the same percentage, 0.69%, as the Dow, settling at 1,342.64 (lower by 9.31). Let’s nail the lid down on this coffin tight. Dow today fell lower than the five-day low (12,780), to 12,743, and traded below 12,800 all day long, until some Nice Government Angel came in during the last minutes and drove the Dow over the psychologically critical round number, 12,800. A market that behaves this way will move lower and that right soon. But y’all don’t believe me. I’m just a natural born fool from Tennessee, not one of them pointy-toe shoe wearing smart fellers from Wall Street. US dollar index traced out a rounding bottom on its chart this week, with a low around 79.40. Today it spent most of its time above the morale- building 79.00 level, and gained a note-worthy 46.8 basis points (0.6%) to close 79.034. This week may well have marked an end to the dollar’s decline. If so, early next week it will climb above its 20 day moving average (now 79.61). Don’t know what caused the delay, but the euro gapped down today instead of yesterday. Fell 0.65% to 1.3198. ‘Tis perched on its critical 62 day moving average (1.3149). Euro will enjoy a painful week next week. Yen bounced 0.1% today to close at 128.87c/Y100 (Y77.60/US$1). Sitting just above support at 128.50c, yen could plunge deeply. Someone sent me a headline today that claimed gold had fallen off today because the euro fell. Media market commentaries are daily filled with this same logical fallacy, post hoc, ergo propter hoc. This happened after that, so that caused this. This is as well grounded as inviting your brother-in-law to wreck your car again because the day he wrecked it last time your lottery ticket won. Without demonstrating some causative chain, these headlines demonstrate the near perfect vacuum in the heads of those writing. On 10 February 1535 twelve nude Anabaptists ran through the streets of Amsterdam. Some sort of religious statement? SPECIAL OFFER DUCATS! These nearly pure gold ducats have been minted in about the same weight (0.1106) and fineness (23-2/3 karat or 98.6% pure) since Roger II of Sicily began minting them in A.D. 1140. Venice minted them as ducato, then zecchino, and Florence minted them as florins, all to the same standard, 3.5 grams of 23-2/3 karat gold. Yes, this is the same size coin you read about in Shakespeare’s plays. Today the Austrian mint strikes four-ducat and one-ducat coins, and the Dutch strike one-ducats. The Austrian four-ducat contains 0.4438 troy ounce fine gold, the Austrian one-ducats 0.1107 oz. and the Dutch 0.1106 oz. I have priced all these as if they all contained 0.1106 troy ounce per ducat, at a Three percent (3%) premium over spot gold. Here’s the deal: you can buy any combination equalling Twenty (20) one ducats for $196.75 per ducat (that’s $787.80 for a four ducat), $3,939.00 plus $25 shipping per lot for a total of $3,964.00 per lot. Please note that I will try but NOT guarantee you get any certain mix. If you order one four-ducat and sixteen one-ducats, you might get three four-ducats and eight one-ducats, but each lot will equal 20 one-ducats in gold content. Sorry, no re-orders at these prices. Offer ends when my supply runs out. Special Conditions: First come, first served, and no re-orders at these prices. I will enter orders based on the time I receive your e-mail.

Your email must include your complete name, address, and phone number. We cannot ship to you without your address. Sorry, we cannot ship outside the United States or to Tennessee. Repeat, your email must include your complete name, address, and phone number.

Orders are on a first-come, first-served basis until supply is exhausted. 3. “First come, first-served” means that we will enter the orders in the order that we receive them by e-mail. 4.

You will need to send payment by personal check or bank wire (either one is fine) within 48 hours. It just needs to be in the mail, not in our hands, in 48 hours. 6. We allow fourteen (14) days for personal checks to clear before we ship. If your hurry is greater than that, you can send a bank wire. Once we ship, the post office takes four to fourteen days to get the registered mail package to you. All in all, you’ll see your order in about one month if you send a check.

The Gold Price Rose $9.70 to $1,739 Gold Must Trade Through $1,750 Tomorrow and Close Above that Mark

2012-02-09T22:41:00.002-08:00

They didn’t. The GOLD PRICE rose 9.70 to $1,739.00 and silver rose 21.1c to 3388.4c. Although gold reached up and touched $1,750.96, it couldn’t even hold on above $1,740. Oddly, too, in the aftermarket it slipped back to $1,730.80, and yesterday’s aftermarket (when I checked it) was $1,730.60. For gold that score is “$1750 – two, Gold – zero.” Two failures at the same level points to lower prices. To gainsay that gold must trade through $1,750 tomorrow and close above that mark. Yet if the GOLD PRICE cannot beat the top of its range, the bottom of the range cannot beat gold, either. Once again today gold’s low came at nearly the self-same spot in the $1,725.80s. If that level gives way, gold will seek $1,680, perhaps $1,650. SILVER PRICE rose to 3388.4c — good, but still range-bound, so no questions answered. Strong, yes, but not strong enough to break through 3450c resistance and make good its escape from the range. All I can see on the 5-day chart is a lower high today than yesterday’s and a trap door at 3360 that silver had better not step through. What makes all this so riddlesome is that silver and gold keep falling off without following through on the downside, but at the same time refuse to push on upwards. All this has the feel of burning up gas, spinning wheels, and lost momentum. Oh, the long term outlook hasn’t changed. Silver and gold remain in a bull market fueled by monetary demand, thanks to their best friends, the inflating central banks and deficit-spawning governments of the world. But for right now metals can’t decide whether to swim or go boating. Be patient. On Friday, 24 February 2012 I will be speaking for the Fayette County (Tennessee) Tea Party, probably at the county courthouse in Somerville. I’ll send y’all more details about time and exact place as soon as I get them. This is your chance to see a natural born fool from Tennessee in the flesh before they become extinct. One thing y’all can always bet on: whenever the banks make a deal, it’s to their advantage and the borrowers’ disadvantage. Take today’s much applauded deal between big banks and 25 state attorneys general over bank wrongdoing in foreclosures. At the end of the day, it costs the banks nothing and secures their otherwise unsecured loans. Here’s how: banks have no clear title to mortgages because when they securitized them and sold them, they were in too big a hurry to preserve a chain of clear title. Thus they sue to foreclose, and can’t prove any mortgage, foreclosure thrown out. So how does the deal help banks? Oh, they put up a paltry $1.5 billion for 750,000 illegally foreclosed homeowners to split amongst themselves, about $2,000 a head, peanuts. Next the banks agreed to re-finance or “modify” $20 bn or so in existing mortgages “to prevent foreclosure.” Now, let’s see. #1, the banks create the whole $25 billion out of thin air. Cost to banks? Nothing. #2, banks now hold bad paper that offers no legal basis or claim for a mortgage, but banks generously — be still, my beating heart! — re-finance said mortgages, creating new paperwork that PERFECTS their bad title. Yeah, buddy, that sounds like the banks gave up a truckload of goodies, swapping unclear title for perfect title they can now foreclose on legally, and all under the cover of a government-sanctioned deal. “Oh, puh-leez, B’rer Gummint, don’t t’row me in dat old mortgage refinancing briarpatch! Puh-leez!” I’m not even going to talk about the Great Greek Debt Deal. My Stupid Meter just blew a fuse and my Hogwash Detector is SMOKING. I can’t take any more. Whole investing world’s been waiting on that Greek Debt Deal, but what happens when it arrives? Anticlimax. Stocks sputtered, euro spluttered, and silver and gold rose. Mmmmm. Welcome to the world of investor irrationality! Five day stock charts offer neither charm nor enthusiasm. Dow is stuck, blocked, stymied by 12,900. Oh, it rose a MASSIVE 6.51 points (0.05%) today to close at 12,890.46, but I will be tactless and tacky enough to ask the sore question: “With the Greek debt-threat removed, why didn’t stocks soar?” Maybe because their wings have been clipped? S&P acquitted itself a little better, closing 1,351.95, up 1.99 points or 0.15%. If they do this in the green tree, what will they do in the dry? They won’t bud and blossom, I can promise you that. The US dollar index moved very little, dropping 5.4 basis points (0.07%) to 78.587, still hovering above that deathful 78.50 support. Don’t get the idea it was a manic day, either with a high at 78.78 and a low at 78.36, it was a bore-fest. With a 0.07% trading range from high to low, the euro wasn’t where the action was today, either. Closed up 0.2% at 1.3285. You would have thought the scared shorts running away would have driven it up, but not at all. That implies — if I were a guessing man — that there weren’t many shorts in the euro and that all the positions were longs expecting the Greek Deal. Now that they’ve shot that round, who’s left to buy euros? Meanwhile the yen gapped down again today, following through on yesterday’s close below the 20 day moving average, and for good measure plunging clean through its 50 DMA as well. Closed near the bottom of the 3- month range. Close was 128.77c/Y100 (Y77.66/US$1), a hefty 0.82% fall. Yen is on the run.

States Seek Currencies Made Of Silver And Gold

2012-02-09T07:25:00.004-08:00

CNN Money By Blake Ellis February 3, 2012 NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — A growing
number of states are seeking shiny new currencies made of silver and gold .
Worried that the Federal Reserve and the U.S. dollar are on the brink of
collapse, lawmakers from 13 states, including Minnesota, Tennessee, Iowa, South
Carolina and Georgia, are seeking approval from their state governments to
either issue their own alternative currency or explore it as an option. Just
three years ago, only three states had similar proposals in place. "In the
event of hyperinflation, depression, or other economic calamity related to the
breakdown of the Federal Reserve System … the State's governmental finances
and private economy will be thrown into chaos," said North Carolina Republican
Representative Glen Bradley in a currency bill he introduced last year. Unlike
individual communities, which are allowed to create their own currency – as
long as it is easily distinguishable from U.S. dollars — the Constitution bans
states from printing their own paper money or issuing their own currency. But it
allows the states to make " gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of
Debts." To the state legislators who are proposing state-issued currencies,
that means gold and silver are fair game, said Edwin Vieira, an alternative
currency proponent and attorney specializing in Constitutional law. And since
gold has grown exponentially more valuable, while the U.S. dollar continues to
lose ground, the notion has become increasingly appealing to state lawmakers, he
said. The state gold rush: Utah became the first state to introduce its own
alternative currency when Governor Gary Herbert signed a bill into law last
March that recognized gold and silver coins issued by the U.S. Mint as an
acceptable form of payment. Under the law, the coins — which include American
Gold and Silver Eagles — are treated the same as U.S. dollars for tax
purposes, eliminating capital gains taxes. Since the face value of some
U.S.-minted gold and silver coins — like the one-ounce, $50 American Gold
Eagle coin — is so much less than the metal value (one ounce of gold is now
worth more than $1,700), the new law allows the coins to be exchanged at their
market value, based on weight and fineness. "A Utah citizen, for example,
could contract with another to sell his car for 10 one-ounce gold coins
(approximately $17,000), or an independent contractor could arrange to be
compensated in gold coins," said Rich Danker, a project director at the
American Principles Project, a conservative public policy group in Washington,
D.C. South Carolina Republican Representative Mike Pitts proposed a currency
system that would allow people to use any kind of silver or gold coin —
whether it's a Philippine Peso or a South African Krugerrand — based on
weight and fineness. Pitts said in the bill, which currently has 12 co-sponsors,
that the state is facing "an economic crisis of severe magnitude."
Republican representatives from Washington State followed suit in January,
introducing a bill that would also allow any gold and silver coins to be
considered legal tender based on metal values. Minnesota, Iowa, Georgia, Idaho
and Indiana are also considering similar proposals. Many of the bills would make
it possible for residents to exchange the physical coins for goods and services,
so you could use coins to buy anything from groceries to a car as long as the
store chooses to accept them. However, most people aren't going to walk around
with such valuable coins in their pockets, said Vieira. Plus, calculating the
value of the coins — especially if they come from different parts of the globe
and are of different sizes and shapes — will get tricky. It's more likely
that the states will create electronic depositories and accounts for the coins
to make transactions easier, when and if the initial bills are passed, he said.
Utah Gold & Silver Depository is already developing a system where customers
could use debit cards linked to their gold holdings. When customers swipe their
debit cards to make transactions, physical gold and silver coins would be
transferred between accounts in privately-owned depositories (or vaults) based
on the market value of the metals. Before deciding on a specific form of
currency, some states — including Minnesota, Tennessee, Virginia and North
Carolina — are considering proposals that would first require a committee to
review their alternative currency plan. The future of U.S. currency: The
states' proposals have been gaining steam among Tea Partyers and Republicans,
many of whom also endorse a nationwide return to the gold standard, which would
require the U.S. dollar to be backed by gold reserves. Tea Party "father"
Ron Paul is sponsoring the "Free Competition in Currency Act," which would
allow states to introduce their own currencies, and rival Newt Gingrich is
calling for a commission to look at how the country can get back to the gold
standard. But it will be the individual states that could really get the ball
rolling, said Vieira. Even if several of the current proposals get killed, the
introduction of so many bills at the state level is drawing national attention
to the issue, he said. Of all the state proposals circulating right now,
Republican-controlled states including South Carolina, Georgia, Idaho and
Indiana have the best chance of passing their proposed bills this year, said
American Principles Project's Danker. If just one or two states implement an
alternative currency, it could have a Domino effect, he said. "I think we
could get a couple passed in this legislative session, and that would show this
is mainstream, popular and it would be a justification for more of the
risk-averse states for doing this," he said. There are, of course, many people
who think the recent push foralternative state currencies should be stopped in
its tracks. David Parsley, a professor of economics and finance at Vanderbilt
University, said he thinks state-issued currencies are a "terrible" idea.
"Having 50 Feds" could debase the U.S. dollar and even potentially lead the
country into default, he said. "The single currency in the United States is
working just fine," said Parsley. "I have no idea why anyone would want to
destroy something so successful — unless they actually wanted to destroy the
country."

Naysayers Devices Can’t Compete With Impending Gold Prices 2012

2012-02-09T07:25:00.001-08:00

Relax. Breathe. Think. These are the actions most gold bugs need to practice if
they want to have the success they know is approaching with future gold prices.
Many investors are thwarted and concerned that gold is giving the impression of
remaining stagnant. This price interruption is repetitive and since 2001 it has
always been able to bounce back to a new higher level. If you're a naysayer,
then it's over for you, but if you're a gold bug, you're only concern is
when it will rise again. Obviously, a definite factor that would incite another
surge into gold would be something concerning the global financial economy, but
until that occurs, it may be wise to reflect upon the size and length of
previous corrections and how long it took gold to attain new highs subsequently.
Sound judgment indicates that it would take more time to approach new records,
but let's try and validate that supposition with the facts and decide if there
were any criteria in earlier recoveries that would give us some inklings that we
can use now. The precious yellow metal made its mark on September 5 at $1,895 an
ounce and up until now has dropped as low as $1,531 which occurred on December
29. This is a decline of 19.2%. To establish how long it could take to break
$1,895 once more, let's look at how long it took new highs to be reached
subsequent to previous huge corrections. It was in 2006 that following a total
decline of 22.6% and a year and four months later that gold exceeded its old
high. Then after the 2008 collapse, it was a year and six months later before
gold reached a new record. Our current correction more closely echoes the one in
2003. Subsequent to a 16.2% plunge, gold was in step with the old high seven
months after. Two months more were needed to stay above it. And, what about now?
If we were to use the same ratio from the 2003 correction and recovery, we would
be looking at something like the following. If it took 29 weeks and four days to
reach a new high after a 16.2% correction, a 19.2% pullback would take 35 weeks
and 0 days which would be on Monday, May 7, 2012. Of course, a precise date is
simply a guess considering there are other factors that are influencing gold
prices. Gold could fall under the $1,531 low if the necessity for cash and
liquidity forces large investors to resume selling. But, also, Europe and the
United States could continue their printing of money on a widespread scale and
send gold soaring within just hours. Bottom line is if we don't reach $1,900
for another four months, it's okay. Remember, a wise investor is very calm and
judgmental at a moment like this. Just contemplate the following reason for
holding strong. It has been evidenced that once gold breaks through its old
high, the current price will disappear forever which means you will never be
able to buy gold at the existing price again. Albeit apparent, let it register
in your brain. Buying at the present time at $1,600 and then observing the price
go down to something like $1,500 would not be enjoyable, but it will probably
reach $2,000 or higher before the year's over, in no way being part of the
$1,600s cycle again. Should this occur, the next four months will be the very
last time you can acquire at those levels. After that, it will be much, much
higher. If 2003 proves to be the model in our example and the rebound ratio akin
to what is going to occur, we have approximately four months to purchase as much
gold as we want before it is no longer on sale. What could happen? Maybe by this
time next year the gold price will not be under $2,000 an ounce unless, of
course, it is in the form of a different currency. Another thing you must keep
in mind is to disregard the lie about the gold market having ended. If it does
not reach $1,900 until May at least we understand the logic behind it. But when
September comes and the price is mounting persistently, you will be ready, but
they won't. Common sense tells us that a new high in the gold price is bound
to occur in the very near future simply due to the chief currencies being so
unstable as well as countries overwhelmed with debt. And, just think, they are
all fiat currencies contingent upon government fiddling and negligence.
Undeniably speaking, the crucial high could be shockingly higher than what we
could ever imagine. Prepare yourself and don't allow the naysayers to
influence your thinking with their incompetence. Gold prices will certainly rise
to extraordinary levels. Tags: Gold Prices, Latest Gold Prices, Prices Of Gold

The Current Gold Price is Worthy of This Advice 2012

2012-02-09T07:25:00.000-08:00

The Eurozone has no quick fix-me-up. And to top it off, the United States, which
is not faring any better is going to their aid when we need our own help
desperately. It's all out in the open now…we are rescuing the Eurozone by
way of dollar swaps with the European Central Bank. What is going on with gold
then? Shouldn't it have taken that and soared with it? Well, there are some
straightforward reasons why gold is not escalating. The number one defense here
is what occurred with MF Global. It was the seventh largest insolvency in United
States history which compelled a high quantity of liquidation of commodities
futures contracts, implicating the yellow precious metal as well. Most
institutional investors found themselves up against a wall and were obligated to
sell regardless of their personal wishes. It is just the same when large
downfalls in the stock market can impel funds and other principal investors to
sell a little gold to boost the cash level for margin calls or accommodate
recovery requirements. Another justifiable excuse as to why gold is not where it
should be is due to the dollar's climb. The capital that is bolting from the
Eurozone has to find its place such as in US bonds, but first that implies an
exchange into dollars which explains the dollar's increment. An influential
factor that is affecting gold stocks is that it is tax-loss selling season.
Actions are guided by which ones are best advantageous in reference to taxes.
Just as well, funds sell their best winners to shut in headway for the year and
make quarterly reports look more profitable. It is because of the
afore-mentioned reasons that gold is in stagnant waters. That does not mean that
gold is unexpectedly considered an unproductive security asset. It also does not
imply that most of the world's legal tender is no longer being reduced in
value and not that sovereign debt world-wide affairs are being worked out, and
definitely not that interest rates are encouraging. No, no, no…the essential
wherefores of being the proud owner of gold are still flawless. The rest is all
a show. Don't get caught up in it. If we look at gold 's current price feat
and put it into proportion, we find that it climaxed on September 5 at $1,895
and since then has been backsliding for about ninety days. Nevertheless, place
your undivided attention towards the bull market's main three-month correction
in correlation to the most crucial inclination. It went like this: The precious
yellow metal dropped 20% from August 1 to October 31, 2008 which was the largest
cascading descent in our recent bull market. Notwithstanding, it ultimately went
beyond our expectation albeit many investors and industry buffs believing it had
reached its highest point. The closing quarter of 2011 ended behind 5.5% over
the former quarter. The advice here is to not allow the present to influence the
future where markets are concerned. Short-term volatility and long-term forces
are two totally different arenas and must be separated accordingly. If you only
listen to what is occurring now, you will eventually make decisions that you
will regret in the future. We are all aware that prices could trade lower which
is why capital is stashed. When this bull market culminates, our current
pullback will most likely resemble much higher prices in the prevailing months
and years. Again, this is why you must take advantage of the current gold
price…it's a steal. Bottom line is to remain calm and not wriggle too much
in the short-term. It's looking out over the horizon where you will find the
gold en rainbow. Tags: Current Gold Price, Current Price Of Gold , Gold Prices

What’s Next For Europe?

2012-02-09T05:31:00.002-08:00

DG365FD46564GFH654FU898

CNN Money By Cyrus Sanati February 6, 2012 To form a strong fiscal union and return confidence to the euro, eurozone members must be willing to give up some degree of control of their national budgets to a central European authority. FORTUNE — The European Central Bank has thrown cold water on the sovereign debt crisis by injecting billions of euros into the banking system, but the embers of the crisis are still smoldering. S&P says the eurozone has a 40% chance of entering a severe recession this year, with the economy projected to shrink by as much as 2%. Unless comprehensive reform creates a much tighter fiscal union, uncertainty will continue to cast a dark cloud over Europe's economic future. It may seem as if Europe is out of the woods.

Stocks in the U.S. were able to push forward last session even as investors still hold concerns over ongoing debt crisis developments in the eurozone . Primary stock indicators in the eurozone closed out the last session red across the board. The CAC 40 in France dropped on the day by .05 percent. The DAX in Germany closed lower by .08 percent and the FTSE 100 in the UK finished the last session lower by .24 percent. The primary indices in the U.S. absorbed negative pressure last session and still inched higher on the day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, as well as the Nasdaq and the S&P 500, finished green. The DJIA closed higher on the day by .04 percent, positive by 5.75, and closed at 12,883.95. The Nasdaq finished the day higher by .41 percent, positive by 11.78, and closed at 2,915.86. The S&P 500 finished the session green by .22 percent, positive by 2.91, at 1,349.96. Noteworthy news affecting the market at mid-week pertained to the action plan being discussed in Greece. The ECB remains undecided on how it will restructure financials in order to avoid debt default. March 20th is the deadline for Greece and a deal needs to be in place in order to avoid default. Investors and global leaders grow more anxious by the day. Stock indicator trend-lines generally moved higher, while several individual companies posted noteworthy losses. Groupon stock plummeted last session as the company posted net loss earnings data. According to site postings, Groupon earned a fourth quarter loss as a publicly traded company of $42.7 million. GRPN posted green at 24.58, but dropped red after hours by over 15 percent according to Google finance stock quotes. Frank Matto

Silver Destined To Underperform Gold This Year: Analyst

2012-02-09T02:26:00.000-08:00

MarketWatch February 3, 2012 By Myra Saefong Silver has given a stellar
performance so far this year, but it's not likely to outperform gold for the
rest of 2012. At last check, silver futures prices has climbed around 19% year
to date, while gold has added 11%. Renewed concerns about the euro zone will
probably drive further gains in the price of silver , from around $34 an ounce
to around $42 in 2013, said Ross Strachan, commodities economist at Capital
Economics, said in a note issued Friday. Recovery in the global economy will
likely disappoint, he said. So, "the main support for silver prices will
therefore have to come from investment demand. This should remain strong and
indeed strengthen further, driven by a renewed escalation of the crisis in the
euro zone." But Strachan expects silver will still underperform gold because
of its "greater dependence on industrial demand and because its increased
price volatility makes it less attractive as a safe haven." View the original

Inversión privada crecería 8% en Perú este año en escenario conservador

2012-02-09T00:53:00.001-08:00

DG365FD46564GFH654FU898

La inversión privada crecería en Perú ocho por ciento en el presente año, bajo un escenario conservador, dado el entorno de alta incertidumbre mundial, señaló el banco Scotiabank. Si bien los empresarios están más cómodos con la situación política interna y menos preocupados, o tal vez más acostumbrados a los riesgos del entorno internacional, en el 2009 ocurrió un quiebre muy rápido y profundo en las expectativas de los inversionistas, recordó.Señaló que actualmente existen señales de intenciones de invertir en el 2012 – 2013 en forma relativamente agresiva en una diversidad de sectores, incluyendo retail (tiendas de departamentos y supermercados), bancos, construcción e inmobiliario e incluso minería e hidrocarburos. Pero es particularmente notable el salto que se viene dando en la inversión minera , señaló el Departamento de Estudios Económicos del banco en su Reporte Especial "Perú: Proyecciones Macroeconómica 2012 – 2013".Explicó que en general existe confianza entre los mineros de que los precios se mantendrán relativamente altos; y, si bien los conflictos sociales están afectando algunos proyectos puntuales, no parece estar contagiando los planes de inversión de la minería en su conjunto .Subrayó que el 2012 – 2013 será un período en que tanto el sector privado como el público contribuirán al crecimiento, a diferencia del 2011 cuando el Sector Público restó aproximadamente un punto porcentual a la expansión del Producto Bruto Interno (PBI).Recordó que el Ministerio de Economía y Finanzas (MEF) espera un crecimiento de 30 por ciento en la inversión pública, y crecer sobre una base tan baja como en el 2011 ayuda, pero es difícil hacer supuestos sobre la velocidad con que los gobiernos regionales y locales mejorarán su capacidad de gasto en el tiempo."Ante la incertidumbre, preferimos ser cautos. Nuestra proyección de crecimiento de 23 por ciento es menor a la proyección oficial, pero aún así implica un nuevo récord en monto total de inversión pública (28,000 millones de nuevos soles versus el récord anterior de 26,000 millones registrado en el 2010)", agregó.También comentó que el consumo público y consumo privado tienden a ser más constantes en el tiempo y la proyección del consumo público está en línea, en general, con el presupuesto.La proyección del Scotiabank del consumo privado toma como pauta el crecimiento del empleo formal, de 5.5 por ciento en el 2011.El consumo privado, a diferencia del gasto público y la inversión privada, mantuvo su solidez en el 2011 y ha empezado el 2012 en forma muy robusta, subrayó.Por lo general, los sectores vinculados a la demanda interna crecerán en el 2012 – 2013 y una de las fortalezas que tiene el país es la demanda interna, lo cual reduce la importancia de las exportaciones y amortigua el impacto de shocks externos, indicó.

Buying Gold vs Buying Silver...which is a better investment?

2012-02-09T00:03:00.001-08:00

I often get the question: Should I buy gold or buy silver? Which is a better
investment? The truth is that they are used for different reasons and I believe
you should own both in your portfolio. The smart investor will diversify their
portfolio. If you hold all your eggs in one basket than your risk increases
greatly. That's the reason I recommend having both. Right now, silver is jumping
all over the place (increased over 8% in the last week) and I believe a more
aggressive precious metal. Gold on the other hand is a safer investment. Gold
has proven to have a solid upward trend over the years. Just like diversifying a
stock portfolio with aggressive, moderate and conservative stocks; precious
metals should be bought the same way. It's important to set your investment goal
and then purchase the correct amount of each precious metal based on that goal.

Practice What You Preach

2012-02-09T00:03:00.000-08:00

After being a successful precious metals investor for over 15 years, I decided
that it was time to share the knowledge of my success on how to invest in
precious metals, such as gold and silver. With the rise in gold prices, it seems
like more and more people are becoming interested in adding gold and silver to
their portfolio. Recently, I became a precious metals broker and now work with
other investors who want to buy gold and silver. I believe that you should
"practice what you preach" and, since I've been successful in precious metals,
it's time to show others how to also be successful and invest in the same metals
I do. That's why I only sell the same precious metals that I buy! You will find
tons of information on this blog about investing in precious metals but feel
free to contact me if you have any questions... Do you want more information or

Gold Prices Build on January’s 11% Rally (Update 1)

2012-02-08T21:44:00.012-08:00

The Street By Alix Steel February 1, 2012 NEW YORK (TheStreet ) — Gold prices
climbed higher Wednesday along with the euro, building on their 11% January
rally. Gold for February delivery closed up $9.10 at $1,749.50 an ounce at the
Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. The gold price has traded as
high as $1,754 and as low as $1,735.40 an ounce while the spot price was adding
$9, according to Kitco's gold index. Silver prices rose 54 cents to close at
$33.80 an ounce while the U.S. dollar index was down 0.48% at $78.90. Gold
prices were adding to their January gains Wednesday as the dollar fell against
the euro. The Automatic Data Processing employment report showed that the
private sector added just 170,000 jobs in January, which was less than expected,
and revised December's whopping 325,000 private job gain down to 292,000. The
lackluster reading underscored the Federal Reserve's commitment to keep rates
low until the end of 2014. Extended low rates have been a catalyst for gold .
Murenbeeld thinks gold could spike to $2,000 an ounce this year, but won't
average that price as a stronger dollar could be a headwind if gold and the euro
maintain their positive correlation. "On a day to day basis it appears what
the euro does is what gold is going to do," he says, but "if you look at
that correlation over the past couple of years it really breaks down," which
means investors can't count on that correlation always being a negative for
gold . Murenbeeld says the longer term correlation between the two assets is
actually zero. "Net net European problems will be positive for gold [even
though] there could be shocks on the negative side." Adding further pressure
on the dollar Wednesday and further helping gold was some positive news out of
Europe. Portugal raised 1.5 billion euros at lower yields. Although demand was
somewhat tepid, the lower interest payments were a relief as the country's
borrowing costs have been on the rise on speculation the country might need a
second bailout. Germany also raised more than 4 billion euros over 10 years at
an average yield of 1.82% lower than the previous auction. Demand, however as
well, was a little light. The euro also gained vs. the dollar on reports that
Greece would reach a final deal with private bondholders on what kind of loss
they would have to take in their debt swap deal. Bondholders are exchanging old
debt for new debt and might take a loss of more than 70%. Greece and investors
were also debating the interest payment on the new debt. Reports indicate it
might be a 3.75% compromise. Gold had a big run in January, up 11%, and some
experts are bracing for a possible profit taking pullback. "Eight weeks up for
gold is probably a stretch now and ripe for something to happen to induce some
profit taking," says George Gero, senior vice president at RBC Capital
Markets, "but the technical and fundamentals don't signal a reversal."
Gold mining stocks were volatile Wednesday. Kinross Gold was slightly lower at
$11.25 while Yamana Gold was 0.2% lower at $61.36. Other gold stocks,
Agnico-Eagle and Eldorado Gold were trading mixed at $37.46 and $15.15,
respectively. View the original article here
