Gold Resumes Surge As NEW QE Rumor Is Back
We guessed it wouldn't be too long before the next rumor was dropped and Gold is surging - now over $1670 - on this latest chatter... Don't tell Gartman, but gold is now of 5% higher in math terms from the minute the "world renowned" gold swing trader sold everything 7 days ago.
Chart: Bloomberg
Incidentally, for all those lamenting the alleged endless manipulation by this bank or that, here is the math: one could have bought much more gold at the manipulated lower price of $1610 from a week ago, than today. Always pays, literally, to keep things in perspective.

Muwhahaha
Muwhahaha
Don't laugh quite yet.
They will pull out all the stops to get control of the POG. They HAVE to... Otherwise, it's game over.
This is going to take awhile.
Agreed.
I'm waiting for sub-30s, regardless if I'm right or not I think we have one major dip let in this then it could be off to the races. If I'm wrong, I still buy a little on a dollar cost average basis but right now I'm sitting more liquid than I have holding out for another run up, then a massive sell off (like has happened.. what.. 6-10...15 times now?)
Time will tell.
If I had a silver eagle for every QE rumor....oh, wait I do.
If gold is 'surging', then what about silver? In the same time frame it has gone up 3 times (by percentage) that gold has.
Silver is the "Ron Paul" of the PM's. Ignored by all the newsmakers.
$2 of silver for every $1 of gold, bitchez.
But only $5 to dig from the ground .... bitchez!
I love the smell of tradition in the morning.
Gartman? Isn't he hated by all of Chicago for dropping the ball and making sure the Cubs' fielder couldn't catch it.
Oh, Gartman...isn't he hated by everyone for dropping the ball on gold and making it easier (giving cover) for people to manipulate the price of gold?
Gartman - Note to self - NEVER SELL GOLD.
No, that was Bartman.
QE-bunga dude!
If I had a gold coin for every time someone has written this in the couple of years I've been reading ZH....
Synergistic!
Yeah. It's pretty cliche. Either way, "off to the races" could just mean higher than $31.50 to me... not $100,000.00 an ounce.
Agreed. After all the hijinks in gold, I'm convinced I can't predict anything more than it will keep on marching as they destroy the currency, AND, it will jump around like a dog in fire ants trying to dislodge anyone stupid enough to watch the price too closely.
Mike Maloney breaks down Price Manipulation in the Gold and Silver Markethttp://rt.com/programs/capital-account/maloney-manipulation-gold-silver/
Agreed, leak a QE rumor heading into the weekend. Get all those PM bugs to go long and then we hammer them on Sunday night with paper. We sap up their dry powder with QE rumors, and then we hammer it down to the low 20's and cover our shorts. Maybe even coordinated margin hike for an amplied effect?!?! I see another sub 30 / 1600 dip before they truly pull out the trillion dollar price tags. In two years we'll be talking about quadrillion dollar packages, be patient people, we're not there yet.
options expire next week.
QE rumor...WHAT QE rumor, who released that, a CNBC anchor?....LOL yea right I give this about 4 hours until its denied again. Entire world markets just running on BS rumors...pathetic.

We need some more Karma. Someone call up Gartman and tell him to short gold, that should do the trick.
Gold is not a risk trade. It is the safe play.
Gold is the future Sir.
Gold is good for your health. With all the insanity around, you watch your Gold very fondly indeed (Buffet watch your insurance co fondly when the Bond market craps out and the insurance claims go to the roof, the balance sheet will be guillotined on the asset side and property and casualty accrual assumption on the liability side will implode, if the float shrinks on top of that, your father will haunt you in your dreams telling you that you were wrong, that a sound money is better.)
The miners are intermediate term oversold. The Gold/XAU ratio is also at an extreme not seen since the 08 crash.
http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=$HUI&p=D&yr=3&mn=0&dy=0&id=p55780558033
Not only that, the miners never recovered from pre 2008 levels. From 2001-2008 the Gold/XAU was in the range from 2 to 5.
In other words, they are more mispriced than the metals which are also underowned and undervalued at this point in time.
One big reason for the miners weakness are the shams and frauds of SLV and GLD, IMO.
While in theory you might be right, but it sure acts like a risk trade with the price seemingly dependent on whether or not we get QE. Kinda like equities in that sense.
The Chinese bought 40 metric tons last month. With or without QE, they are bailing on the dollar. Same with the rest of the BRICs.
That is totally false. Gold and silver ran for years before any QE took place.
Its all about real negative interest rates. Not to mention deficits, currency debasement, unfunded liabilities, etc...
What, exactly, was the headline of this article?
Who cares. That isn't what you said.
Uh, yes it is. It's exactly what I said. And if you haven't noticed the way gold moves in tandem with the rumors of QE, you aren't paying attention.
Jeebus, I'm a PM guy myself, I believe in the long term advantage of owning physical, but I'm not blinded by gold fever, I can see what's happening. You should open your eyes. I know, it can be scary, but it'll benefit you in the long run.
You said "with the price seemingly dependent on whether or not we get QE."
That is false. Maybe open your own eyes. Perhaps take a longer look at the Golden Bull run the last 12 years. There was no QE for most of it.
Edit: And not only that, QE started in 2008 and has not stopped. These rumors are a smoke screen.
I can't tell if you're being intentionally obtuse, or if you're really that fucking stupid. Either way, you're missing the point and I don't have the patience or inclination to debate with you. I deal with reality my way, you deal with it yours.
You remind of the warden in Shawshank. Obtuse? LMAO...
Good one.
Yes, in layman's terms, it means not real sharp. Slow on the uptake. Not the sharpest tool in the shed. Not to say you're not a tool, but you get the drift.
A golden woodie, just let it happen, do not be afraid
lol Epic
Here's Johnny!!!!!
It's ok, he's actually long gold in ZAR monkeys.
Fade Gartman bitchez
Crap......Gartman's dead again!
Gartman may be the perfect contrarian indicator.
Along with Nadler, giving it a bash (and gold) on a daily basis. What a bunch of muppet puppets!
That's Nadler's job (probably Gartman's too) - lie to the gullible and get them to sell whatever gold they have before the reality of the massive amounts of debt to be unwound finally hits home in a big way. I was in the mall the other day and one of the 'cash for gold' guys was telling me that a good reason to sell any 'old gold' I had was because it helps meet demand without mining, which is very environmentally destructive! Not even sure how to take that - I should sell my gold not because the price is going down, but because it will help OTHER BUYERS get it without having to mine it?
You should have told him that you are the demand and promptly asked him to sell you some gold. I would be curious to hear his answer?
These places only buy, never will they sell to the public, says it all really!
"may?". He is for sure. I bought a bit at 1630 thanks to Gartman.
Gartman sold gold priced in bullets, so he's up.
I saw the spike on my iGoogle page and had to check ZH to see what happened. Thanks for the quick Post Tyler.
Gartman is long of horseshit...
The lunatics are running the asylum
This QE on and off stuff is worse than the 3 little pigs
This QE on and off stuff is worse than the 3 little pigs
No worries mate, there will be a QE 3, no way out of it......................period.And I suspect a lot sooner than they had hoped.
Cool, I'll laugh in their face at $120 WTI.
If this is a QE trade being set up (which it mostly appears to be), why are the long yields rising?
30yr auction today?
iGold Bitchez...
You think bernanke will kill it tomo?? smash everyone back down?
I bought the gold and solver dip phyzz anyways so just a point of interest really
DON'T ever believe the experts or the influential when they badmouth gold and say they are selling or have sold their holdings - most likely they are either stupid (thus not deserving of your attention) or they are LYING to help suppress the price, while they turn around and buy, buy, buy.....
Remember, in order to keep the world in fiat currencies, TPTB edomite-banksters need to smash/manipulate gold (mostly via paper gold) values continually.... expect this to happen until the fiat crashes.
More QE rumours, talk and BS.
How many times do they have to do this until people learn ? !
Even monkeys learn, I guess they are truly Muppets !
It is probably just the algos at this point.
Muppet algos !
Come on, when is it going to crash!?
AAPL plunges today.
This is a crashed price. This is thirty years of enforced low prices skidding along the rock bottom.
OT:
let's make this video go viral! YES WE CAN!!!

So is the Dow ... just goosing the markets. That's all.
Since it is up today, Gartman will say he was "long of gold".
Most assuredly.....
Since I don't think Gartman has internet access, we probably won't know what he will say until he gets his daily price telegram from Western Union.
...in yen terms.
imo the fed jawbones of an[sic] asses are helping the big banks whipsaw the markets.
In a normal Precious Metal market, it would mean that something is coming our way as PM have a way of sniffing problems ahead. In this "market" who knows.
Cue FED "hawk" for PM smackdown in 3, 2, 1...
You stack, you wait, you don´t listen to the morons.
Buy gold now, await QE3, wait 60 days after election, witness crash, then sell like a motherfucker.
Or, if you are a survivalist, just store your gold and/or sell for silver pence, place in secure place, and.........
Enjoy profit.
Easy game.
Let me know when you're at the "sell" stage. I'll be happy to take some of your phizz, shizz.
There WILL come a day when PMs are overvalued in terms of income assets. It's a cycle.
I don't hold gold for "profit," and never think of it in terms of it's performance v. other assets. To me it is a store of the purchasing power of the fiat I converted to it.
"Income assets" rely on paper claims on cash flows. If your call of "cycles" comes to be, you may have a real hard time reclaiming those paper assets. Water, water everywhere but not a drop to drink.

Bingo, the life raft of dying fiat.
It's life insurance......................
There will come a day when gold is overvalued in terms of something. It might be income assets, it might be arable farmland, it might be cows or wheat. That day is not today. It's not likely to be next week. We'll all know it when it comes. It's when Dr. Teeth (and all the rest of the Muppets) have all their teeth gold instead of just one. Sell on that day.
There will come a day when gold is overvalued in terms of something.
While I don't disagree with your sentiment generally, there is a point being lost in the semantics. Gold's value does not change...it is the things around it, for which it can be exchanged, that change in value. So I would simply say that there will come a day when something (like real estate) is a bargain. On that day, I just might be happy to sell you some for the right weight of gold. :)
I agree with your position. In Zimbabwe when the currency collapsed, those with bread/cooking oil (food) only sold it for gold, down to the grain of gold- for a loaf of bread:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ubJp6rmUYM
The Zim natives didn't seem to notice that they live on THE MOST FERTILE SOIL ON THE PLANET!
and they killed their farmers, but that is a different story
Anti gold trolls (not on this thread) say if things ever get sticky, their gold won't be worth anything .. this video, and simple logic, demonstrate that if you don't have food, ONLY gold will be worth anything
then sell like a motherfucker.
And for what may I ask?.....................fiat?, the new & improved toilet paper?.
For what ever people use their savings for. Real eatate is a great exit strategy, especially if you´re looking at productive real estate or rentals.
I hold PMs, the little I´ve got left after I had that unfourtunate boating accident, for when the time is right to enter the real estate market.
If you want to make money in gold ALWAYS do the opposite of Dennis Gartmann
Most definitely ... it's actually quite amazing.
Gold spikes every time there are rumors of QE3. If this time is anything like the last 2 times we had rumors of QE3, then we'll see a good bull trap formed by the rumor followed by a drop to new lows.
Could be, but at this time I think there are a lot of small shorts getting their balls squeeze.
When is there NOT rumors of QEn? Watch financial TV, financial news websites, etc.. Somebody is ALWAYS talking/reporting about the likely next wave of funny money about to be unleashed.
then we'll see a good bull trap formed by the rumor followed by a drop to new lows.
Wunnerful!!!!!!!!................just what I have been waiting for.
If that does happen Physs holders will buy like biatches, and you will be lucky to get ANY.
So make sure your finger is on the key.
After they knock the prices down with paper dumps or margin increases, it usually keeps going down for about 1-2 weeks after such an event. I always wait 1-2 weeks after that before I buy more... it's worked 90% of the time so far.
GO GO GO keep on popping baby, don't stop!
Chinese GDP will beat expectations tomorrow.
man, we called the bottom at 1600-1625 a week ago in a perfect 5 waves-ABC correction, in YEN you can see the chart is perfect compared to in $....from here we should shoot up to the stratosphere and take the old 1920 level (with of course a few bumps on the road and manipulators corrections aka BUY THE DIP OPPORTUNITIES!!!)
ahhh, by the way, FUCK YOU BEN!
Two hours ago I saw Ben Bernanke come out of Maria Bartiromo's dressing room. She had printers ink hand prints on her ass - and Ben had Cheetos dust on his pants zipper. There was talk of "stimulus".
One hour ago a new QE rumor started.
That story kind of stimulated me
QE rumors ... ES up the same percent as AU
I'M ALIVE :)
A pox on whoever downvoted you. Probably Methman lurking ... angry .. suicidal ..
The bear run is over. Again.
Next up, +750k unemployment claims, and DOW 18k.
I doubt anyone believes QE is coming. They know it's a BS rumor to bump the market up off the wave of bad data this morning.
It will be interesting to see if they start to sell it off before close like yesterday.
Key words, "Inflation will moderate". Thats the feds concern. They keep saying that, with the numbers about to come in on PPI, they have justification.
The Fed WILL print...but not now. First, Ben needs commodity prices way down and needs to keep the ten year down. The best way to do that is to let the market fall 15% to 20% - and that (with the shit storm that is coming to the EU) will allow Ctrl+P.
I think its the 3%(us)...going to 5%....more and more people and countries see gold and silver as the "safe haven"...not someones debt anymore.....and at some point it will be 40%....
Gartman is "now of"...lol, good one!
Can someone here please explain to me why the FED has not been engage in continuous QE since 2008?
Presently, the FED is buying ~80% of new debt issuance. Granted some of this comes from the proceeds of long bond sales (Operation Twist). But the only way for the FED to maintain short term interest rtes at virtual zero is to buy any bonds dumped onto the market. So QE never stopped. The FED is trying to con the markets with anti-gold propaganda and a disgustingly self-serving rewriting of recent history vis-a-vis the 'beneficent' role played by the central bank in the economy during the 20th century. So what am I missing here?
Nothing, just semantics. IMO...
yep. kinda like the egregious discrepancies between dictionaries and financial institutions regarding the definition of the word "allocated"
@continental: I think that you're absolutely right, since '08 'debt monetization', 'QE', 'money printing', or whatever the kids are calling it these days hasn't once come even close to slowing down, let alone 'stopping'. Investors are being led by the nose to watch for the exact wrong thing. When rumours of 'a new round of QE' are spread it is really just a signal that there is no immediate intention of even reducing the frenetic rate of 'printing' that is already in play.
'ZIRP' is the indicator that really matters, IMO. Tough to be 'hawkish' in that kind of environment, no? Zirpbabwe.
It begs the old philosophical question: If BenBee cuts down a trillion trees to print fiatscos and forks them over for nothing to his friends who stay schtump, does he have to make a sound?
Isn't it amazing how gold and silver charts are almost identical? Thus forcing me to buy my physical equally in gold and silver, it's my diversified portfolio. crash JPM buy silver
Well we are not going to crash anything . But I think it is wise to "gradually accumulate gold*" and silver too, to avoid being muppets.
*Marc Faber
Wait until our geniuses get on tv to debate another trillion or 2 being added to the debt ceiling in September or sooner. QE is just another name for writing bad checks, which they do every month in hundreds of billions in bond purchases. Adding trillions to the debt ceiling will be a real circus this time. China might start selling our old bonds faster.
Watch out .... Apple will soon fall from tree
"Don't tell Gartman, but gold is now of 5% higher in math terms..."
I'm looking forward to either/both FM on cnbc today. Even Lee and the cast have been subtly ridiculing him the past several weeks.
we're back to bad news is good news
fuck you bernanke
Its been QE all alone with operation do the twist, its just back to the ol fashioned hard core QE
Front running the fed has pushed up the bond market for years. It's a tried and true game. If the game didn't exist, interest rates would be 10%. Therefore it will never end as long as they are in control. It can't end. QE to oblivion.
Isn't what is happening with QE3 basically the same thing that happened with Greece (and the debt ceiling for that matter)? They are going to defualt..no they are saved...no they're going to default...no, saved, until people became so desensitized that when, in essence, Greek defualted people didnt really even care. If the same thing would have happened initially, the shock would have been much worse. To QE, not to QE until it finally happens and John Q Public are glad that they stop talking about it.
I want a chart showing the frequency of anti-PM postings by obvious trolls on ZH, versus PM prices a day or two later.
Remember how they all showed up here yesterday or the day before?
This could be an excellent market timing tool.
Sandoz .... Would you care to comment? .. No comment?
Bring back Johnny Bravo!!!!
Bite your tongue!
A day without JohnnyBravo is like ..... a day without hemorrhoidal flareup.
The BRICS do want to deal in USD, but they do because it is (was) the reserve currency. Thanks to Mr BenDover the USD, as it exists today, is dead, it's only a question of time, and not that much time (6 to 18 months?).
The BRICS are stocking up on Gold and silver to a lesser extent. When the market chatter turns to the BRICS thinking of creating a "new" reserve currency based on Gold/silver (and believe me if I am thinking about they are doubly so), we will see a parabolic move toward 2000/oz.
That time is not far away (perhaps pre election?). The probablility of QE3 is becoming moot.
