Gold And Silver Surge Above 200DMA
The last few days have been 'different'. Equities have relinquished their role as QE-sensitizers as Treasuries and precious metals have taken the reins. Perhaps though, as CNBC's Rick Santelli noted earlier, Gold and Silver are acting as barometers of anxiety - as opposed to clarifying QE expectations - as we see both Gold (> $1650) and Silver (> $30) break above their 200DMA and trade back to near five-month highs.
Silver has surged an impressive 9.4% in the last four days - its largest such jump in 10 months - and broken above its 200DMA...
Gold has soared back above $1650 ($1672 at last look), broken above its 200DMA, and the jump in the last 3 days is most in two months...

GOLD $50K Bitchies ...

Another roll of A-Mark Liberty rounds on the way!
Ned Naylor-Leyland claims the LBMA is having trouble delivering silver for large orders. Sprott buying silver. Soros/Paulsen/et. al. buying gold. Basel III rules for making gold a tier 1 asset in the works. FOMC hints at pending QE. Global economies still under duress.
It's nice to be sailing with the wind for a while.

Buying gold and buying GLD are two different things. They are not taking delivery.
They are paper gold bitchez.
Ron Paul: "Why do central banks hold gold?"
The Bernank: "Well, it's a form of reserves"
Ron Paul: "Why don't they hold diamonds?"
The Bernank: "Well, it's tradition...long term tradition."

And another round of QE for BONDS helps JOBS how?.Just one more nail in the coffin.

Hello....people are placing savings in PM's now, paper is passe...drive the price down even more and see what happens.
You must be a barbarian.

In 2011, gold went from $1500 TO $1900 in two months. If it does it again, that will put us to October. If Israel attacks Iran as it wants to BEFORE the election (knowing Jews overwhwelmingly vote democratic), that will rocket gold further.
The "Black Swan" we have been hearing about may be the "Goose that laid the golden egg"!
Looks like someone is expecting more QE
Is that more QE in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
Or widespread dissemination of a picture of Blythe with her shorts around her ankles.
I agree. I think this is frontrunning by insiders. QE III is coming. They sense the time is right (whispered) "...umm eletion in Novermber election in November" and the operation is a go. Will it be weeks or months?
I totally agree, this move in PMs in the past 8-10 trading days is pricing in an upcoming QE announcement.
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-08-22/gold-to-advance-as-central-banks-investors-buy-coutts-predicts.html
A move of this magnitude in this short a period of time is almost certainly insider frontrunning. (I'm making a list of possible reasons).
Somebody HAS to know something. JPM trading down 5%? Silver Scandal? Possibly. We won't know until the money has left the building.
OR ... GOLD > $50K Bitchies ...

Hold......HOLD.......HOLD.........
<I sure hope y'all were buying the fucking dip.>
I went all in at $49.50. I'm so totally loaded with Silver!
The second mouse gets the cheese. The first is just clearing the mine field.
Thanks for doing your part.
I, for one, BTFOTFD, which is where one buys the fuck out of the fucking dip.
Gold is up more than 1% today. Time to give up a little.

For some reason I decided to order 125 new maple leafs on the 10th. It's nice to have the market move in my favor for a change, even though it means I can't buy more as inexpensively.
I'm a simple man...so no gold can't afford it...but I buy silver from a local shop just about 3 times a month last week he had 10 2001 silver eagles I got them at 28.50 each...it's great if you can buy local no shipping no taxes .. but I've been buying from him for 3 years now...
Local gold and silver dealers are basically nonexistent around here. There's just no demand. The closest thing you can find is a pawn shop that sells the odd quarter or dime from 1910, at a minimum 200% markup of course.
You have no idea how ignorant Canadians are about gold and silver compared to Americans. I'm reminded of that video where that guy walked the streets trying to sell his $1500 gold maple leaf for $25. You could probably walk the streets of Toronto for an entire day and not find a single person willing to pay $25 for a gold coin.
I know - "Do you realize how bearish owning silver bullion is?"
Yes. Next Question?
Congrats, be carefull now, dont lose them in a tragic blimp accident
Bad news. The FedEx guy delivered my rounds to me at work today... I ran home, and in my excitement, I tripped and the whole box went flying over the bridge. 60 feet down, wouldn't you know it, a family of gypsies were passing by in a dingie. I'm facing 12 hate crime counts of involuntary manslaughter. :(
Technical analysis from gold bugs? Whassupp wid dat?
Reckoning Day can only be delayed, never avoided.
BTFD. No way. My IChing at the beginning of the year said, "Get the fuck out of stocks by the end of August. If you wish to dabble during the 2012 collapse then you might try a 100 shares of UVXY just for fun."
What translation of I Ching do you have? Mine is only talking about crossing some great water, and something about what the superior man would do, and that going South is propituous, and shit like that. No investment tips whatsoever.
I Ichinged all my paper back in 2008 and have been buying real ching-ching ever since.
Metals have nasty descending triangles to deal with before the bulls can celebrate:
http://chartistfriendfrompittsburgh.blogspot.com/2012/08/descending-meta...
Fortunately, the metals' current ascending heptagonal pyramidal parallelogram trumps your measly descending triangle.
+[current POS] for funny comment of the day.
Not to mention the circular reasoning behind the comment.
Only on ZH can one get geometric forecasts of PM's.
I'm putting all of my $$ into stocks right away!/s
Yeah, bottom line is, don't get too excited, yet.....it may fall back, yet again. It may go to the moon, too! (keeps fingers crossed)
Surf the silver surge!
You would get crushed.
Stay out of them there tubes.
I don't think it's takeoff, yet. Too many people still think the "rally" in equities means anything. As for me, all I know is every month before the breakdown gives me another month to prepare, so despite my impatience, every new day it doesn't crack up is a little miracle...
Me too! I wanted to buy for the last 2 weeks, but it did rise each time i looked. Damnit!
I will have to wait for the next dip back to the now support line, because i do not chase and only buy the dips. Like every body should do :)
Anything below $35 or so is a "dip" right now... What's one FRN at the end of the day anyway? I like to chase the dips as much as the next guy, but I'm not going to get left out waiting for the "perfect moment" either. If you've got the cash, BUY!
Anything below 50 is a buy.
Do it.
The Fed will have to be on permanent QE as US debts and unfunded liabilities rise by $8.25 trillion every year. What will create jobs in USA? Exports to Europe? (Japanese exports to Europe down 25% year over year). Exports to China? - not a chance. We are already in a recession.
Permanent QE is the only solution. Very bullish for gold and silver.
You simply cannot elect a new president who will repeal the laws that have made your bank less profitable without a crash in the confidence indicator err...market...Let's face it, in Europe Spain's situation is about the same as Greece's and Greece is already in the kitty for about $400b so at 5x their economy, $100b is a nice start for Spanish banks to continue paying back German and French banks but this is a $5T issue (adding in Italy) and politicos are still playing with dimes...ESM and the EFSF doesn't help them...even massive printing that takes the ECB debt up to $8-9T doesn't wipe bad debt off although it may buy time it may push all investors out.

So do we need to hedge the phyzz a bit with DZZ, or is that just madness?
Im also wondering if shorting the crude after the strike will be nice....
Slightly off topic - Bank run in Vietnam. - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-19358745?print=true
Quote of the day:
The bank run has also put pressure on the dong and has led to an increase in the price of gold.
It's not off topic at all; it's exactly on topic. The present ongoing bank run in Europe and the sheeple fleeing the stock market are providing funds to bid up the price of the metals.
I often put pressure on the dong as well (usually while sitting in front of the computer while alone at home).
I am convinced, there is no way silver is going below $25 again. There is no stopping this paradigm shift from the virtual automaton to hard assets, nothing. I predict China will announce that they have a strategic allocation of silver buillon as an additional reserve currency this year, along wtih gold, which will boost the price above $100/oz. in less than a day. This will be the start of the paradigm shift, congratulations ZH'ers you are ahead of the curve.
I am convinced also; of course, I am sometimes wrong.
But being convincingly wrong can sometimes be its own reward. :-)
Yes! ... and ... Karl Denninger and The Market Ticker response? ... "Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....." :)
Karl "Herr Forumfuhrer Denninger" is an asshat of the first order.
akak said:
He almost sinks to the level of an assnadlerhat.
Indeed --- Denninger is almost lower than a Nadler's belly.
Sinking lower than Nadler's belly in a Chinese luxury boat.
No change here. Just moving along with what I got. Not surprised at what we are seeing.
But...but...but, "you can't eat gold!"
A 'DMA' is a Displaced Moving Average. You are referring to a daily Simple Moving Average.
the old pump and dump. where/when have we seen this before?
Caution would be advised: For those of us already holding, YAHOOOOOO! For those about to 'jump in with both feet'....baby steps.
It's kinda humorous to read the metals market predictions after a significant up day.
( and I am all in)
Just bought some pretty cheap Oct AGQ puts as a bit of insurance against my phyizz hoard, I smell a trap. If i'm wrong, I inusred myself for a couple hundred bucks through October.
QE off the starboard bow!
Lift those chests, ye scalawags, an' don' lose a single coin!
Looks like this is a short term bounce in PM's my friends.
Once the Euro starts to drop again and the dollar gains, gold will decline until the demise of the Euro.
There will be no more US QE until after the election, unless S&P <= 1150.
Gold will at the very least re-test the 200 DMA, and probably swoop below it. I'm going to get very interested in buying in the $1650s.
Risk On Bitchez!!! Strong divergence between the DOW and Au
Got Gold ???
You guys are crazy if you think these useless metals are anything of value. Nancy Grace said it best. Quit being lonely white men and go out and get laid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMZbtoNEQbQ
Thank you for that erudite analysis, RobotTrader.
Nothing like comparing one of the most important economic issues of our time to one of the biggest insecurities of American males. If you collect silver you're a 40 year old virgin who can't please a woman. I am damn good at sex and not lonely. Fuck silver. Baahhhh Baahhhh!
And if you "collect" dollars, what does that make you?
A cool ass fly mother fucker apparently. Nancy Grace wouldn't lie
You fergot yer sarc tags there, Smokey.
Silver $31 is a crucial level once it trades three days above this then the stock is on its way to rock and roll. IMO the underperformance of silver to gold since 1980 will be played out over the next few years as silver plays catch up. (remember gold has more than doubled from its 1980s high of 800 while silver barely achieved its 1980s high of $50.
This time out silver because of its compelling fundamentals of frenzied demand, vanishing underground resources and virtually non existent overhead supplies makes for a perfect storm in a tea cup.
The first clue to the storm shaping up is the drop in silver mining in the US by 14% for the H1fy2012. The Latin Americas (43% of global production) are hell bent on nationalisation and the frequent flash strikes in their mining belts can lead to acute silver shortages which can cause spikes in the silver prices.
IMO silver is the best investment of this decade and maybe the next also.

highest and best use of the precious will reveal itself; hopefully before it gets the extinct asterisk on the periodic table. expect more nations to nationalize it's silver fields.
Surely all those boating accidents have left some visible PM's on the sandbars of the Mississippi, and other water bodies.
BTFD ...in the water level.
Watch week ending gold price. If we close at or above these levels, then game on for run past 1900 in gold. Will be "fast and furious" IMO.
But the dollar is the worlds reserve currency! All global oil is pegged to the dollar, and there are more dollars circulating in the world than in the USA. How can metals, which do not have the demand, compete with the dollar?
There's no way that the dollar can ever collapse. It's as solid as anything on the planet, while gold and silver are manipulated.
Remember when Max Keiser was screaming to buy silver and take down JPM? Well, the only one's who got taken down were the gold and silver bulls. I'll bet their asses still hurt.
