Precious Metals Will Depose Cash from Its Temporary Throne
Peter Cooper submits: ‘We have just been in Bahrain and everybody is cashed up!’ one banker told me today. My reply was that if everybody is now in cash, then it just has to be the wrong place to be. There are some very good reasons to worry about...

Options Trader: Monday Outlook
Phil Davis submits: Wow - We expected an up move in the [[FXI]] but this is incredible! The Chinese government rolled out a massive $586Bn stimulus package that amounts to roughly 16% of China’s entire GDP - that would be like the US dropping a $2Tn check on the...
Whether Bailout Passes or Not, Implications for USD Are Bad
Adam Katz submits: The past two days have been remarkable in terms of the volatility in the equity markets, but how has the dollar performed? Ironically the dollar rallied on risk aversion the one day, and then rallied on renewed optimism the next. We are likely now sitting in over-bought...

Nothing, that is, except financial market sentiment and pricing, which is changing at literally unbelievable speed. News...
US Government: No Surprises Left
Kathy Lien submits: The US government is pulling out all of the stops but the market is not convinced that the storm has passed. The price action in everything from stocks, bonds, the US dollar and gold indicates that every new rescue is having less of an impact....
Options Trader: Tough-Decisions Tuesday
Phil Davis submits: On Sunday Alan Greenspan said "This is the Worst Economy I’ve Ever Seen." That’s a pretty bold statement from the guy that built it! Greenspan noted that the government was left with tough decisions: which institutions are "so fundamental to the functioning" of society that...
The Law of Supply and Demand Is Dead for Gold and Silver
I’m going to preface this article by warning you that this is one of the longest and most important articles I have scripted in many months. During the recent gold and silver correction that began on July 14, 2008 and which perfectly coincided with the miraculous surge higher in the...
Best 'Currency' Right Now? It Might Be Gold
Ken Bell submits: One day, the Dow rises nearly 300 points. The next day, it gives it all back. United Airlines UAUA is down 99% one minute. A few hours later, it's back to even. In the evening, Lehman LEH is solvent. By the next morning, the company has filed...
Look Out Below
IndexUniverse submits: By Jim Wiandt I'm looking at markets this morning getting that sick feeling you get right at the top of a big hill on a roller coaster. by Index Universe
Options Trader: Monday Meltdown Watch

Powerful Strengths, Pathetic Weaknesses, and What Donald Coxe Recommends
Prieur du Plessis submits: Of all the market commentators I regularly quote on this blog, Donald Coxe, Global Portfolio strategist of BMO Financial Group, has turned out to be one of the most popular. And rightly so, as Donald has been on the right side of the “big picture”...
Can Gold Be Suppressed Indefinitely?
James West submits: Recently a subscriber wrote to me and inquired, “if gold has been subject to manipulation by the dark forces at the top of the economic pecking order, then why couldn’t they continue to do so ad infinitum?” Arriving at an answer to that has taken me...
Commodities Meltdown as Dollar Surges
Mike Havrilla submits: The accompanying three-month chart illustrates a steadily strengthening US Dollar UUP along with a broad-based meltdown in the prices of commodities.

J. Christoph Amberger submits: Crude oil prices are a hurricane stand-down away from breaking through $100... and gold is about to hit $750! What should you do as the commodities boom crumbles? These days, I watch my stock portfolio with a sense of pain and excitement. Pain because...
