New Video: Gold, Silver, Platinum…W.T.F.?



New Video: Gold, Silver, Platinum…W.T.F.?
It’s rare that I get to make a video…and I REALLY hope you like this one!


Title: Gold, Silver, Platinum…W.T.F.?!

From my friend:

“Brad Stafford here in place of Adam Hewison and I have a great new video for you. I’m sure many of you read that title and your mind went in the gutter, but today I’m going to show you a whole new meaning for this acronym and how it applies to gold, silver, and platinum.

These three markets have a lot of volume, government implications, and technicals lining up for potentially great trades. Gold makes a record high, then pulls back.

Silver is inching towards an all-time high level and platinum is making people rethink their decision to go with a white gold wedding band.

Where do you stand in these markets and maybe more importantly, where should you stand?

Click here to find out what W.T.F. really stands for and what does it have to do with gold, silver, and platinum?

You’ve got to watch the video to find out.”

I enjoyed it, and it confirmed my strategies as well.


I think I am still on the right track with Spot Gold (XAUUSDO), and started to go long on Silver (XAGUSDO) and Platinum (XPTUSDO).

THE AVA GOLD RUSH
Hello Fellow Trader,
In the past 3 months, Gold has been on a constant rise and keeps on breaking new all-time highs! Currently it is trading at $1170—up over 10% this month alone. At 100:1 leverage, that's a 1000% profit potential!

What does this mean for you?

It seems that there is no limit to how high Gold can reach. According to Jim Rogers, who’s one of the most respected investors in the world—who also predicted the commodities boom earlier this decade—said: “Gold is going to be much higher over the course of the bull market, in a decade, or however long it lasts!” Frank Holmes, CEO of U.S. Global Investors, also said: “It's possible for Gold to top $2,300 an ounce.

In spite of this continual upward trend, many believe that the current rally in risk assets could reverse at any time, at least for a normal 10%+ pullback and possibly more. That would typically mean a reversal for gold as well. Capital Economics forecasted that “Gold futures will fall below $1,000 an ounce by year-end and fall as low as $800 an ounce next year.

Up or down, this is your time and opportunity to trade Gold and as an added incentive, Ava FX is offering you the following bonuses when you open and fund your account*:
  • Invest $300 and get $200 Bonus.
  • Invest $1,000 and get $400 Bonus.
  • Invest $5,000 and get $1,000 Bonus.
  • Invest $10,000 and get $2,000 Bonus.
To claim your bonus and start trading, click here.
What are some of the reasons for Gold's rise? :
  • India’s purchased of 200 tons of bullion from the International Monetary Fund.
    • The IMF thought they were getting a great deal, selling their bullion at the "height" of the market in order to raise cash to help struggling nations. However, the market disagreed, and saw this central bank purchase as a sign of more such transactions to come, as exporting nations holding depreciating dollars seek to diversify.
  • The decline in the U.S dollar.
  • Rising optimism about the recovery igniting inflation concerns.
  • Safe Haven
Will the rise continue or reverse?

There has never been a better a time to trade Gold—join in on the Ava Gold Rush now!

Some very Valuable Options Trading Resources:
NovaGold Resources Inc. (NYSE-AMEX: NG) is becoming recognized as one of the most favored stocks for a gold bull market. Also, for investors who are seeking to maximize their exposure to gold due to expectations for rising gold prices.
A clear example here is renowned billionaire investor George Soros, whose market acumen has driven his firm's assets up 41 percent over the past year, during a time when most have struggled terribly. In recent months, through Soros Fund Management LLC, the Soros Fund has initiated a significant position of more than 2.5 million shares of NG as part of a broad move into basic materials and energy stocks, with NovaGold now serving as a cornerstone of his fund's gold and copper positions.
Another striking example comes from Barron's. In the Mid-Year Roundtable, published on June 15 – with his recommendation reiterated in late September – leading advisor Marc Faber stated the following:
I like NovaGold Resources. Barrick Gold tried to buy them for about $15 a share a year ago. There was no deal and NovaGold fell below $2, although it has rebounded to $5.50. NovaGold has enlarged its asset base significantly. Today it is even more valuable than $15.
And even more emphatic is Stephen Leeb, Ph.D., respected editor of The Complete Investor. He stated the following with his recommendation of NovaGold in his Weekly Update dated June 10, and in the June 2009 issue:
The junior company with the fastest growing asset base in the industry.... Over the next year or so, I expect this stock to soar.... It illustrates particularly well the potential a superior miner can have even when gold prices are flat...from a risk/reward perspective you won't find a better play than NovaGold.
Dr. Leeb strengthened his recommendation with this statement on October 12:
Our top gold stock remains NovaGold. NovaGold... owns some of the largest copper and gold deposits in North America. The company has the potential to soar to 5X its current price.
Here's why the most respected market gurus are so impressed with NovaGold:
·         The company is more leveraged to the price of gold than nearly all other gold stocks. What we mean by "leverage" here is that for every $1 rise in the price of gold, this stock has demonstrated the potential to catapult ahead strongly.
For every $1 invested in NovaGold, the investor controls $45 in gold resources! Compare this with other respected gold producers and gold development companies by clicking here: http://www.nrinvestor.com/dollarinvested.pdf
For example, in the first five months of 2009, gold was rising. It moved from $881/oz. to approx. $980/oz., an increase of +11%. In the same period, NovaGold rose from $1.50/share to $5.13/share – a gain of 242%.
Compare this leverage with what you've seen in other gold stocks you track. The company outperformed ALL other advanced-exploration and development-stage gold stocks during this period of a rising gold price.
·         And potentially, there's plenty more room for equity growth. Today, the company's in-situ gold resources are valued at less than half the average of $74/oz. among advanced exploration/development-stage gold companies (market cap/in-situ gold resources), as measured by Canaccord-Adams Research in their most recent industry report dated October 20, 2009.
http://www.iipub.com/images/emailads/novagold/divider.gif
Large Projects, All in North America
NovaGold controls 50% interest in two of the world's largest gold and copper-gold projects: the 39-million oz. Donlin Creek gold project in Alaska and the 14-million gold oz. Galore Creek copper-gold-silver deposit in northwestern British Columbia. Donlin Creek is a 50-50 joint venture with Barrick Gold, the world's largest gold mining company. Galore Creek is a 50-50 joint venture with Teck-Cominco, one of Canada's largest mining companies.
The company owns 100% of Nome Operations, including the 90%-constructed Rock Creek Gold Mine in Alaska, expected to produce 100,000 oz. of gold annually when production can commence. Among these major projects, the upcoming months hold compelling opportunities.
In short, NovaGold combines several unique factors:
  • Very large defined gold resources in North America,
  • Compelling growth opportunities now, with
  • World-class partners, superb management and strong financials.
It would be hard to find a more powerful spring-loaded stock today. Not only does NovaGold offer the most exciting leverage to gold in the industry, it also offers the thrill of gold development on a large scale.

Buying Gold today, big-name investors signal a new phase in the market...


The $2,000-Gold Investors


FOR THE FIRST TIME in several decades, some of America's most successful, big-name investors are 
Buying Gold, writes Chris Mayer in Daily Wealth.

David Einhorn, the hedge-fund manager who predicted the downfall of Lehman Brothers, recently bought gold for the first time. And then there is John Paulson, the guy who made billions of dollars by correctly anticipating the housing bust and credit crisis.

Paulson just plunked down $1.3 billion for an 11% stake in major gold miner AngloGold. He also has a big position in Kinross Gold.

Peter Munk, the 82-year-old chairman and founder of Barrick Gold, also offers up his own anecdote about gold's broadening appeal:

"I have had more phone calls in the past six months than ever before – from people who have $120,000 inherited from grandmother and from hedge fund managers with millions...

I am not saying George Soros, but people of that caliber have told me they are
Buying Gold."

You no longer have to be a gold bug to think gold will rise in price. In fact, this buying by some of the world's greatest investors may be the leading indicator for a quick 116% climb – up to $2,000 per ounce or higher, I believe.

Why? The biggest reason is that the value of the US Dollar looks about as brittle as a 90-year-old's hip socket. And if you worry about the value of the Dollar – or any paper currency – then 
Gold Investment makes a good alternative.

In fact, gold has held up well while most everything else has taken a beating over the last year. On a recent conference call with investors, First Eagle fund manager Abhay Deshpande points out that gold just made a new high in just about every currency apart from the US Dollar and Japanese Yen.

"It has performed its job for everyone in these countries," he says. "It has held its value."

Take a look at the chart below and you can see the fall-off of the Dollar in recent years and the rise of 
Gold Prices.

 

"But there have always been worries about the value of the Dollar," you say. "That's not new."

True. What is new, however, is a global financial crisis unlike anything we've seen in the post-World War II era. And that crisis has brought with it serious doubts – the most serious in decades – about the Dollar's ability to keep its top perch in the aviary of world currencies. As that doubt increases, 
Buying Gold attracts new fans.

It is easy to 
Buy Gold today, whether directly or in trust via exchange-traded funds (Gold ETFs). They are like mutual funds that hold gold. And as investors move into these ETFs, their gold holdings also go up.

It's one way to see the dramatic increase in demand for gold in just the last few quarters.

So we have to ask: At $900 per ounce, are all the fears baked in or are we on some new history-making path?

I have a good friend who advises institutional clients on investing. As he reminds me, the really big money hasn't started buying yet. There are no big pension funds or endowments with significant gold holdings. That could change. If so, the
Gold Price will go wild.

"Gold is a small market," notes Barrick's Peter Munk. His career spans 60 years and he knows the gold market as well as anyone. Says he:

"Let's say a small percentage of the world's central banks – or simply the United Arab Emirates itself – do not believe President Obama's pledge that he will halve the US deficit by the end of his first term. They shift some of their dollar reserves to 
Buying Gold; It would not take many decisions of this kind to push the price above $2,000 per ounce."

That's how gold gets to $2,000 per ounce – just a bit of doubt turning into action. The mind boggles at what would happen if China decided to plow more of its gigantic currency reserves into gold. Gold could well hit $5,000.

And as long as President Obama, Fed chief Bernanke and their pals treat the Dollar like confetti, gold should continue to gather new fans.

The world financial order will not always hinge around the Dollar. Global finance will not always find its center on Wall Street. As Munk pointed out: "Look around Davos this year. So Goldman Sachs cancels its dinner party. In its place, a Kazakh company has a dinner party."

As the Dollar goes bust, who knows what will replace it? With gold, you don't have to worry too much about the answer.

G20: Nothing is our best hope!

G20: Nothing is our best hope!

Prince Philip “Don’t they all look the same” referring to the leaders attending the G20 Summit.

And he has a point, they not only look the same they act the same with a few minor national differences. Their agenda is about posturing, photo calls, tea with Betty, (Queen Elizabeth) intense networking to position oneself for a future lucrative job in a non-affective world organization ala Helen Clarke, giving the nod to the issuance of an agreed communique et al.

This current crop of world leaders are good orators and usually photogenic when elected in order to present the ‘face’ of their political party. They are not thinkers or strategists, that is the bastion of the those non-elected invisible people we fondly term bureaucrats (more…)

Move Your Money Out of the Country… and Soon

Move Your Money Out of the Country… and Soon

In the post bag this morning there is this article sent to us by ‘Without Borders’, team of the Casey Research group, which we hope that you find both interesting and informative as it is all about moving your money out of the country.

Things are getting uncomfortable for individuals and corporations looking to deposit their money in tax havens around the world. Just recently, Congress introduced the so-called “Stop Tax Haven Abuse Act,” which is designed to do away with the privacy afforded by doing business or investing outside the U.S. and to eliminate or reduce tax benefits available offshore. Simon Black and Fitzroy McLean, ex-CIA operatives, investment pros, and globe-trotting editors of Casey Research’s Without Borders, weigh in with their no-holds-barred opinion on the topic (more…)
