- Monday, March 18, 11:35 AM Gold's safe-haven status is renewed amid the situation in Cyprus, sending Comex gold above $1,600/oz. for the first time this month. “Gold should profit from the possibility that savings are no longer regarded as safe," Commerzbank says, but it's too early to know if the push will last; Societe Generale doubts gold rallies much from here. Gold miners also move up: GDX +1.1%, GDXJ +1.2%. 3 Comments [Commodities, Global & FX, On the Move]
- Tuesday, March 12, 8:25 AM Gold gets a sniff of $1,600, gaining 1% in minutes to $1,596/oz., with traders noting one buyer taking down 5.7K 1-month gold futures contracts as stoking the move. GLD +1% premarket. Silver comes along for the ride, SLV +1.1%. 10 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Monday, March 11, 5:41 PM More on Goldman's buy-the-dip short-term outlook for commodities: Crude oil is attractive because of emerging-market demand, limited OPEC spare capacity and relatively low global inventories. Brent futures should continue to show backwardation, and "substantial pipeline de-bottlenecking" in North America should support WTI prices. Gold is another story: It's a flat-out short, with prices rising before falling. 4 Comments [Commodities, Energy]
- Monday, March 11, 3:23 PM Most troubling for gold, says Barclay's Suki Cooper, is the flow of funds out of gold ETFs (GLD) as this money "has tended to reflect longer-term 'stickier' investor interest." If the buy-and-hold money leaves, gold's fate could be left with the fast-money crowd. It's an interesting argument, but we'll call it "unproved" at this point. 14 Comments [Commodities]
- Friday, March 8, 9:15 AM Gold falls back to last summer's lows - now $1,562/oz. - as the strong NFP report takes some of the "QE bid" out of the market. GLD -0.8% premarket. Gold miners (GDX) -1.1% premarket a day after the ETF saw big inflows adding nearly 3% to AUM. 1 Comment [Commodities, On the Move]
- Thursday, March 7, 3:22 PM Van Eck files for two precious metals ETFs - the Redeemable Gold Trust and the Redeemable Silver Trust - that would allow investors to redeem their shares for gold or silver. It's unclear whether the redemption would offer better value than buying coins or ingots, but it will be easier than trying to do it through GLD which requires redemption amounts of at least 100K shares. 3 Comments [Commodities]
- Thursday, March 7, 7:59 AM Even as his hand has gone ice-cold picking stocks, John Paulson's stake in gold (GLD) has served as a positive counterweight for his funds. That's no more as gold's slide (along with the miners - GDX) spurred an 18% decline in his Gold Fund in February, and is now down 26% YTD, reports Bloomberg. "We believe in the long-term outlook for these positions as QE programs continue around the world," he writes to clients. 23 Comments [Commodities]
- Wednesday, March 6, 3:09 PM Longtime bulls on gold, Commerzbank analysts turn bearish, noting holdings of gold ETFs have dropped below 2.5K tons for the first time 5 months. GLD - far larger and the playground of institutional players - has seen a significantly higher amount of outflows on a percentage basis than the retail favorite IAU. Another measure of small-fry sentiment, U.S. mint sales remain brisk. 16 Comments [Commodities]
- Tuesday, March 5, 4:41 PM Gundlach: Worrying about how the Fed may unwind its policies is a waste of time, he says. The current Fed boss and the putative successor (Yellen) haven't indicated any interest in an exit. With precious metals bears patting themselves on the back of late, Gundlach thinks it's a good time to buy, preferring silver (SLV) to gold (GLD) thanks to the white metal's higher beta. 7 Comments [U.S. Economy, Commodities, Quick Ideas]
- Monday, March 4, 10:50 AM Chasing performance, money poured out of GLD last month and into the Japan Hedged Equity Fund (DXJ). The DXJ pulled in $1.77B in February, bringing YTD gains of $3B - an extraordinary amount considering it started 2013 with $1.3B. The GLD bled $3.75B last month, bringing AUM to $64B. 1 Comment
- Friday, March 1, 3:14 PM Gold ETP flows had their weakest month on record, according to Barclays, causing net fund ownership of the metal to fall to its lowest level since Dec. 2008. New short positions are at their highest since July 1999. Net outflows between Feb. 20-25 averaged more than 10M tons/day, with the bulk coming out of the GLD which lost 58M tons for February. 25 Comments [Commodities]
- Thursday, February 28, 12:50 PM Add SocGen to the growing list of sell-side shops growing bearish on gold (GLD), calling Fed talk about an exit strategy premature for now, but coming nevertheless. It's a familiar argument to anyone paying attention. The news isn't SocGen's reasoning, but instead the now-fashionable bearishness on the metal. 14 Comments [Commodities]
- Tuesday, February 26, 2:55 PM Comex gold scores its biggest one-day gain of the year, jumping $28.90 (+1.8%) to settle at $1,615.50, as Bernanke’s comments were "music” to the ears of precious metals bulls, Real Assets' Jan Skoyles says, "and strong economic data is just not enough anymore to convince markets that all is well." Silver +0.9% to $29.32. 8 Comments [Commodities]
- Tuesday, February 26, 7:15 AM Goldman slashes its 2013 gold price target to $1,600 from $1,810 citing ... recent price declines. What wonderful value-added. Searching for a better reason to justify its fancy pay, the team notes a small increase in U.S. real interest rates as well as the perceived hawkish FOMC minutes (refuted by a half dozen Fed speakers over the past few days). GLD -0.3% premarket. 18 Comments [Commodities]
- Monday, February 25, 12:41 PM Gold gains 1.1% to $1,590 after touching a 7-month low last week amid growing indications of at least short-term capitulation. Another one: Net long positions for the week ended Feb. 19 were slashed by 36% to the lowest level since November 2008, according to Commerzbank, which notes the metal has slid more since the 19th, meaning speculative longs have likely declined even further. GLD +0.6%, SLV +0.9%. 8 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Monday, February 25, 10:59 AM Counting on the Fed's dovish bias to win out, UBS goes against the grain by predicting a "major gold rally" this year, expecting the Fed to continue printing into Q3 when UBS' commodity strategists - in contrast to its economists - expect global growth to lose momentum. But investors have been dumping their gold ETF holdings in favor of industrial metals; last week, physical palladium ETFs saw their largest inflows ever. 3 Comments [Commodities, Quick Ideas]
