When And How Gold Will Begin Its Bubble

Posted: 02 Feb 2011 03:35 AM PST

The bull market in Gold is in its 12th year (globally it began in 1999) but has yet to exhibit any "bubble-like" conditions. In fact, we still see many people referring to this bull market as "the Gold trade," as if its an aberration that needs to be reversed or corrected. That aside, we know that Gold is under-owned as an asset class. The very well respected BCA Research estimates that globally only 1% is allocated to Gold and that fits with some of the charts that I've … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

Desperate Markets: Carbon Trading

Posted: 02 Feb 2011 02:01 AM PST

The European Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) is an absolute, shameful and thoroughly predictable disgrace.

It starts from sound enough principles. A market with a shortage – in this case, of CO2 permits – will (a) see prices rising and (b) liberate the boundless ingenuity of (capitalist) mankind to fix the shortage at the least possible cost. If, as I do, you accept that reducing CO2 emissions is a legitimate (if debatable) objective of policy, this might be a way to go about … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates


Gold Is Bottoming And Longs Soon To Be Rewarded

However, the drop to $1310 fulfills a potential Fibonacci pivot low according to my Elliott Wave views on Gold, and investors can begin building long positions with the following views in mind if I'm right.

The rally up from the February 2010 $1,044 lows has been a large "Wave 3" structure which is not yet … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates
