Is Gold a Buy or is it “Toppy”?
A few weeks ago the gold rush was back on.
Inflation fears were rising. Yields on treasury bonds were rising. Gold was making another run at $1,000. Leading the headlines though and sparking the most interest was hedge fund manager John Paulson and his big bets on gold and gold stocks.
Since then, interest in gold has cooled quite a bit.
The latest Consumer Price Index reading quelled inflation fears and put deflationary risks back in focus. The U.S. government’s measure of inflation indicated prices fell 1.3% over the past year. It was the biggest decline since the Truman Administration.

Once again, the U.S. Mint can’t keep up with the huge demand for American eagle gold and silver coins. Americans are so anxious about the uncertainty of the seemingly never-ending financial crisis that they are demanding physical positions of their gold and silver, the only true money.
It’s not hard to see why. In many ways American eagles are ideal ways to buy gold and silver.
They are easily recognized, certified by the U.S. government, and easy to buy and sell through any coin dealer worldwide. And they normally sell for close to their bullion value. That is, until recently.
Prices for gold…

Real investors almost never buy gold stocks.
Mind you, I’m not talking about traders. I’m talking about investors. I’m talking about people who know the value of owning a great business for decades… people who have proven they can intelligently deploy capital and compound wealth at double-digit rates for a generation. Great investors like Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, and Peter Lynch usually laugh at the thought of buying equity in a gold mining business.
Mining companies use enormous machines and armies of people to dig gigantic holes and pull tons of dirt and rocks out of them. They have relatively small amounts…

President Obama has all-but sealed the fate of the U.S. dollar.
In doing so, however, his policies – no matter whether they’re forced upon him or deliberate – have opened the floodgates for gold and gold stocks.
In fact, they’re setting the stage for the biggest rally in gold’s history.
Over the past several months, we’ve told you why you should buy gold and highlighted one of the best gold indicators you can use to determine when to buy gold. But today, we’re simply going to show you how to profit from the yellow metal…
Three Reasons Why Gold Is Headed Higher
Okay, so Obama hasn’t specifically…
25Feb2009 | Smart Profits Report | 0 comments | ContinuedGold Investments Market Update – PwC Finds ‘Gold is Serving Its Purpose as a Hedge of Wealth in Uncertain Times’
Gold rallied sharply yesterday, for the fourth day in a row, on sharply higher oil prices (some 10%) and a weaker dollar. Gold gave up some of its gains overnight in Asia as the dollar bounced after recent sharp losses in volatile trade.
Gold’s rally yesterday had nothing to do with an increase in risk appetite. If that was the case, why have stock markets internationally been falling sharply again in recent days and yesterday? Quite the opposite is true, gold has been strong as risk aversion remains heightened (rightly so) as the economic outlook remains very uncertain.
Volatility in currency markets…

If diamonds are a girl’s best friend, and everything that glitters is gold, where did silver go wrong?
This is precisely the question making the rounds among precious metals enthusiasts these days. How is it that silver took such a beating recently, while gold escaped relatively unscathed? Was it, as some suggest, manipulation by a dark, totalitarian cohort that seeks to rule the world and all its wealth with impunity? Was it the collusion of banks looking to profit from a manipulative short sale scheme?
Those claims we’ll address when time and space permit.
But first, the damage assessment.
Silver stocks were…
