Weekly Gold Report (July 8th through July 12th)

As expected, markets overall went through the lighter volume volatility trade last week due to the July 4th Holiday. The only standout was the Crude Oil Futures, which spent the entire week pricing in the news in Egypt. Aside from that, most other markets went through the usual rangy market swings that are expected around shortened Holiday weeks, especially those in the Summer.

I anticipate we will see similar movement in the week ahead as Summer trading continues. Additionally, the upcoming week is a bit light on tradable news. Aside from reviews from the monthly meetings of the Central Banks in the US and Japan, we begin quarterly earnings reports in the US Stock Indexes. If there are no major surprises, I would expect the same type of volatility we saw in the prior week. Continue reading "Gold Chart of The Week" →

Today's Video Update: Apple files for the iWatch trademark in Japan

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and Co-creator of MarketClub, with your mid-day market update for Monday, the 1st of July.

Apple Files For a iWatch Trademark in Japan!
Shares of Apple jumped almost 4% on news that it had filed for a trademark in Japan. This is the best upside performance for Apple in over a week. Apple inturn is helping the NASDAQ gain for the day as well as helping the other indices.

The Strong Trend For Crude Oil Persists
Crude oil moved to its best levels in eight days and it appears poised to challenge the $99 a barrel level. Should this market move over that resistance point I can easily see this market quickly move to the $100 a barrel level.

Weekly Gold Report (July 1st through July 5th)

The second quarter of 2013 came to a close with a decent rebound in the US Stock Indexes. A three day up-move was the result of favorable consumer spending, housing, and unemployment numbers. Despite the move up, it was not an easy week to predict market movement, nor was it a week to feel comfortable in a trade for more than a half day. This is because last week’s schedule of economic reports was punctuated daily by FED Members that now have the ability puppeteer global markets with one interview. Even though the FED decided to keep rates unchanged and maintain their Bond buying on a monthly basis (QE), the interviews that followed the decision had the potential to negate the initial response to the rate decision. Last week required the attention of traders each day as one FED Member after the next was asked about their thoughts on whether or not Ben Bernanke and Co. would begin to scale out of QE sooner or later. My opinion is that the scaling back has already begun. Continue reading "Gold Chart of The Week" →

C is for Cash and Catalysts in a Chaotic Market

The Gold Report: Resource equities have been rejected, beaten up and ignored. Make your case for small- and mid-cap gold stocks.

Jeff Killeen: It's true that investment dollars have been moving out of the resource sector over the last year and gold exploration companies in particular have seen a drastic decline in market value over the last 12 months.

However, the space cannot be ignored. These commodity sectors are cyclical and putting investment dollars to work strategically in the space when equities are at such low valuations makes sense, but patience is required.

"My recommendation is that investors focus on the fundamentals when looking at junior exploration equities."

My recommendation is that investors focus on the fundamentals when looking at junior exploration equities. Does the management team have a proven track record? Does the company's asset or assets have strong grades relative to the proposed extraction method, which can secure healthy margins, even at lower commodity prices? Does the company have balance sheet strength to significantly derisk and advance these projects?
