Factors That Affect the Prices of the Precious Metals

~ admin ~ Leave a comment

economic factors affect the price of gold, silver and other precious metalsGold, silver, and other precious metals have been used as currency for centuries. They are also seen as a store of value because they tend to hold their value over time.

Many people invest in these metals because they believe that the price will go up. So, what affects the costs of these metals? In this blog post, you will learn about some factors that play a role in setting the latest prices of these metals. These include:

1. Demand and Supply

The law of supply and demand is the most obvious factor that decides and fluctuates the price of a good. If more people want to buy gold than there are sellers, the price will go up. The same is true for silver and other precious metals. The demand for these metals can be affected by many factors, such as economic conditions and geopolitical events. Continue reading →

USA & Clinton Beyond the Law [w/ Video]

FittsGreg Hunter – Financial expert and former Assistant Secretary of Housing, Catherine Austin Fitts, says the U.S. government’s actions with Hillary Clinton means it is more lawless than ever. Fitts explains, “The entire country now looks like Arkansas . . . we’ve all turned into Mena, Arkansas, now. It’s pretty tragic.

“I have watched for two decades while 80% of the federal budget and federal credit has been run outside the Constitution and the laws related to financial management. I have never seen anything as blatant and outrageous as Loretta Lynch, prior to Hillary Clinton’s interview with the FBI, meeting with her disbarred husband, who is either the husband of or the target of a criminal investigation, and basically briefing him on what I am assuming and what I believe on what Hillary needs to know, so she can skate the (FBI) interview.

“What the President, Lynch and Comey don’t want is the investigative team recommending to indict. . . . If you know anything about civil or criminal procedures, this is so beyond the law. This is so over the top that I have never seen anything more outrageous. It’s beginning to look like Mena, Arkansas, during the Mena drug running.”

Fitts says the corrupt way they handled Ms. Clinton is how they are handling the business of the federal government.

Gold And Silver At Significant Support. New “Story” Developing

~ admin ~ Leave a comment

Michael Noonan – With the holiday weekend, the focus will be on charts only for, ultimately, they reveal the truest story of what is developing in any market.  There is one more trading day in May, next Tuesday, but we are using ending data from Friday, the 27th, for the monthly charts.

The rally in both gold and silver has been a significant change in market behavior, and these changes are telling the world that the decline from 2011 may have  ended. We note the ending action at 1, on the monthly chart.  Besides the obvious support and resistance areas, what stands out are the two high volume months when price closed lower each time, once in March, and now for May.

Volume is the energy behind every move.  Without it, no trend can be sustained.  Always remember, exceptionally large volume is when smart money movers are in action, either covering old or taking new positions, in the market.  It is during these high volume events that one can see the “footprints” left behind by smart money movers.  We define “smart money” as those who move and influence market direction, to keep it simple.

Good News, Bad News, Both Favor Gold And Silver

~ admin ~ Leave a comment

Michael Noonan – First, the good news and taking a moment to celebrate the recent unstoppable rally in both gold and silver where, as has been expected, silver is outperforming gold.  While we have stayed clear of paper futures from the long side, over the past few years, almost each and every week we have continued our mantra of buying and accumulating the physical metal. It is beginning to pay off, especially for purchases made throughout last year and this one.

This is not yet a victory lap, for the market remains in its transitioning phase, but  the faithful, for what has always been considered the only true form of money: gold and silver, can relax more and shed the deer-in-the-headlights look after seeing both pummeled to the downside so relentlessly over the past several years by the money changers.

In the battle being waged between Truth [physical gold and silver] and Lies [all paper contracts], the indestructible PMs will always prevail, and the time is nearing.  On Thursday, at the peak of the rally, and during yet another Draghi lie called a press conference, “someone” dumped over $2 billion in paper gold onto the market.  That is 16,000 paper contracts, with emphasis on paper contracts for it sure was not physical gold that was being dumped.  For silver, around 7,500 contracts were sold at the same time.

How much more blatant can the central bankers be?  How much more will be the effect of such stupidity?  Holders of the physical know very well what is being “sold” is useless paper, not the real metal, and as with QE-t0-infinity, bankers have pretty much run out of “fixes.”  These are definite signs of the end game for PMs suppression.

While the Less Is More philosophy works well in the real world, more dumping of central bank paper is having less effect on the real market.  Where the drinking of kool aid by the Jones cult led to the death of all 900 followers in Jonestown in 1978, those who currently continue to follow and “swallow” the globalist’s paper kool aid currency will also die a financial death, of sorts.
