It goes against all conventional wisdom for a gold dealer to caution investors on the price of gold and silver moving lower. There are literally trillions of reasons why the price of gold and silver will move higher in the years to come, including a multitude of unsustainable future government obligations. But from a short term perspective I have seen …

I had been cautioning gold investors that the U.S. dollar price of gold breaking to new highs needed a confirmation of the dollar index breaking to new lows. The fact that it didn’t even break the March 2008 lows of just under 72, let alone 74, showed there is still some perceived strength in the dollar and that a reversal was possible.

That’s right. Gold is just a shiny rock as all the Gold naysayers like to say. It didn’t change in the last week. It’s still a shiny rock. But the U.S. Dollar appreciated of late thus causing the U.S. Dollar price of Gold to fall. To understand this further read on…

23 days ago I wrote an article Trade Gold In EUROS Instead of Dollars? Switching May Make Sense Soon where I presented the case that the GDP of the Eurozone didn’t support the appreciation the EURO was receiving over the U.S. Dollar, which also was experiencing lousy GDP numbers. It was the fact that the EURO was approaching its all-time highs against the U.S. Dollar that made no sense.
