The GOLD PRICE has been extremely oversold, so is due for an extreme snapback. The 200 day moving average lies overhead about $1,152, flowing together with the downtrend line from the October 2012 high, same lines that Gold challenged in October without success. This time should be different, as every indicator favors gold rallying.
Silver isn't as well positioned against its moving averages. The 200 day hovers above at 1557c, far below the downtrend line from 2011's high.

Dow in Gold |
Continuing its volatility pattern, the Dow today fell back 117.12 (0.66%) to 17,730.51. S&P500 gave back 14.62 (0.7%) to 2,077.07.
Dow in Gold and Dow in Silver hooked up today, just a tee-tiny hook up, dancing around the 20 DMA, but not enough to make me doubt for a New York second that they topped on 27 November and 2 December.
US Dollar |
West Texas Intermediate Crude oil closed at a new low for the decline that began in June, $37.65. That's its lowest since February 2009. Tis possible that it is making a double bottom with the $37.75 August low. It won't keep us waiting long to find out. This comes, by the way, on the heels of OPEC's Friday decision not to limit production, rotten news for high cost US producers.
The Gold/Bank Stock Index spread has shot up and down in lunatic trading since July, trading I associate with markets trying to swallow a huge trend change. The spread rises when confidence in gold is growing and confidence in the financial system is dwindling, and falls when financial system confidence is growing. Today it punched through its 20 DMA, first tripwire for a trend change, but didn't quite close up there. Appears to have double bottomed with a July low at 13.50 and Friday's low at 13.771. Assuming it continues to rise, this is about the best news gold could get, short of abolishing the Fed and European Central Bank.
SPECIAL OFFER: 1/10 oz. gold American Eagles
Today I bought a large lot of one-tenth ounce gold American Eagles waaaay bigger than I want to keep. I am, therefore, powerfully motivated to price them to move.
Cheapest I could find these elsewhere on the Internet was $125.20 or 16.5% over their gold content. But whoa! I am not running a museum, and I want to say good-bye to these coins, so that's your golden opportunity. I will sell them at $120.75 or 12.2% over their gold value. One lot is Twenty (20) coins at $120.75 each for a subtotal of $2,415.00 plus $35.00 shipping for a grand total of $2,450.00 per lot. These are random dates, and my choice of dates. This is the smallest denomination gold coin in a modern issue.
I have thirty-three lots only, and this ridiculous price applies to those coins only. After that, it's only a dim memory. You may order multiple lots.

WARNING AND DISCLAIMER. Be advised and warned:
Do NOT use these commentaries to trade futures contracts. I don't intend them for that or write them with that short term trading outlook. I write them for long-term investors in physical metals. Take them as entertainment, but not as a timing service for futures.
NOR do I recommend investing in gold or silver Exchange Trade Funds (ETFs). Those are NOT physical metal and I fear one day one or another may go up in smoke. Unless you can breathe smoke, stay away. Call me paranoid, but the surviving rabbit is wary of traps.
NOR do I recommend trading futures options or other leveraged paper gold and silver products. These are not for the inexperienced.
NOR do I recommend buying gold and silver on margin or with debt.
What DO I recommend? Physical gold and silver coins and bars in your own hands.
One final warning: NEVER insert a 747 Jumbo Jet up your nose.
