- Thursday, May 16, 7:18 AM Precious metals continue to tumble, with gold at $1,374 nearing the panicky lows (about $1,350) seen during April's liquidation. Any excuse will do in a bear market, and filings released yesterday containing data anywhere from 6 weeks to 5 months old showed continuing sales of gold ETPs by names such as Soros and BlackRock. GLD -1.3%, SLV -1.3% premarket. 9 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 15, 11:16 AM Gold (GLD -2.1%), (IAU -2.2%) sinks back below $1,400 as the bounce since mid-April is officially over. At work here, suggests RBC Capital, is the strong stock market. To participate, foreign investors sell gold, buy dollars (UUP is up big in May), and call their stockbrokers. Commerzbank notes gold ETF outflows were another 6 tons yesterday, bringing the total since early April to 230 tons. Silver (SLV -3.1%) tags along. 34 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Friday, May 10, 7:33 AM The stronger dollar has precious metals resuming their decline in force (or is the decline in precious metals strengthening the dollar), with gold (GLD) off 2.3% and silver (SLV) off 2.2%. Crude oil (USO) pulls back a bit from its recent big rally, -0.9% to $95.53. 106 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Monday, April 29, 7:31 AM Precious metals continue their comeback tour, with the dollar (UUP) being lower across the board as good an excuse as any for buying this morning. GLD +1.1%, SLV +1.5% premarket. The greenback is particularly weak vs. the aussie (FXA), +0.6%. Comment! [Commodities, On the Move]

Friday, April 26, 4:24 PM
The week's ETF movers - Gainers: TAN +14.6%. XHB +6.2%. OIL +5.5%. USO +5.5%. PHYS +4.4%.
ETF Losers: VXX -5.8%. GAZ -5.3%. UNG -4.5%. DBA -1.0%. EPI -0.4%. Comment! [On the Move] - Thursday, April 25, 7:03 AM The bounce in precious metals continues, gold (GLD) +1.6% and silver (SLV) +2.1% as buyers of the physical apparently used the rout to load up and - if anything - global central banks are leaning towards even easier monetary policy. A survey shows low bond yields are no longer doing it for central bankers and they're now looking at loading their balance sheets with equities. 18 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Monday, April 22, 9:13 AM A massive wave of Asian buying of precious metals is emptying dealer shelves across the region. "I haven't seen this (kind of) gold rush for over 20 years," says the head of the HK Gold & Silver Exchange, adding that old-timers haven't seen anything like this for 50 years. GLD +2%, SLV +1.4%. 34 Comments [Commodities, On the Move, Top Stories]
- Monday, April 22, 8:27 AM Precious metals claw back another chunk of recent panicky losses, gold +2.5% to $1,430/oz., and silver +2.2% to $23.47. GLD +2.4%, SLV +1.9% premarket. 5 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Thursday, April 18, 7:16 AM Gold retakes $1,400/oz. after falling as low as $1,337 overnight. Coincident with any big macro move are rumors George Soros is on the right side of it to the tune of hundreds of millions in profits. "Gold was destroyed as a safe haven, proved to be unsafe." GLD +1.5%, SLV +0.9% premarket. 8 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, April 17, 7:31 AM Gold slides again with yesterday's bounce now near-erased, off 1% at $1,373/oz. Silver tumbles 2.2% to $23.12. GLD is actually a bit higher premarket thanks to gold being above the level it stood at the 4 PM close of stock trading. SLV -1.2% premarket. 9 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Tuesday, April 16, 7:02 AM After continuing to slide sharply early in overnight trade, gold is bouncing, +1.8% to $1,388/oz. (it touched $1,322 at its low point). Silver +0.6% to $23.50 after dropping as low as $22.01. GLD +2.5%, SLV +3.4% premarket. 6 Comments [On the Move, Commodities]
- Monday, April 15, 10:25 AM "OK, so I made a bad call at the Barron's roundtable," tweets Bill Gross. "I would still buy gold here. World reflating." After a morning bounce, gold has returned to the session low at $1,388/oz. GLD -6.7%. 25 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Monday, April 15, 5:01 AM Gold futures leg down to $1,401, -6.1%. Silver -9.8% to $23.74.

- Monday, April 15, 4:20 AM A number of reasons have been given for gold's (GLD) sudden free-fall, chief among them the ECB's pressurization of Cyprus' central bank to sell its gold reserves to help pay for the country's bailout. That has raised expectations that other distressed eurozone members might be forced to sell gold as well. Other factors include bearish forecasts such as from Goldman Sachs, the slow improvement in the U.S. economy, and the perception that gold is no longer needed as a safe haven. Gold -4.1% and silver -7.4%. 15 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Sunday, April 14, 11:06 PM Precious metals continue to sell off sharply, gold (GLD) -4% to $1,440/oz., the lowest level in about 2 years. Off 6.7% to $24.58, silver's (SLV) back to fall 2010 levels. 50 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
