Dollar Rally Won't Last Forever; Don't Give Up on Gold

Nobody knows when to buy/sell gold excluding daytraders like me.
I don't care about your graphs or your knowledge of the world,in early 1980's when gold crashed for 20 years guys like you went broke.
Probably you are the new generations of such losers as those that bought gold then are not alive anymore.

Bear Market Gold

Thanks for statistics guys,are you long/short gold or just want to make a name for your website?
I love gold goes down (even I am bull on it) as at my Commerzbank AG in Frankfurt are some cash deposits that I am eager to change to gold bars that Commerzbank is trading.
Let the gold crash,let me get my bars cheap.

Oil Will Only Fall So Far

I don't think the author is crazy,all you write about can happen of course but you and me will be much older by then.
I am Russian,only living in Frankfurt far away from the waste and industry in FSU.
Mr.Medvedev (or Mr.Putin as you quote) really catched all the Western European and American politicos on the balls and Russian bear will not losen his grip.The power have already shifted to the East,THAT'S IT.
The best thing would be for Americans to learn from Europeans,which is to shut up,sit put and buy Oil/Gas from Russia while it is still available at acceptable prices.And soon to learn to pay more and more but still sit put as nothing can be done about it,the Oil/Gas belongs to Russian federation and there is no legal framework o take it away,Russia is not stupid Iraq,it will never let it happen,never.
The author is right to point out that one day probably very soon Oil/Gas will continue to go back up and it have sense to hold Oil/Gas other resources stocks,but I would advise to buy this stocks directly from the company not through the bank or broker,as FDIC guarantees each American's deposit up to 100,000USD is insured and only if it is CD's,cash or Treasury Bonds.
All else is not guaranteed,even if investor have 50,000USD in Exxon or in Newmont Mining that he bought through his/her bank or broker,in the event broker goes bankrupt or bank,this investors will be left with nothing.As stocks they helded with their bank/broker is on the books of that institution and be written down with everything else if bank's debts exceed it's equity,capital base.
So if one prepares for Dow Jones at 5000 points (it will not take too long,already by December we will see the animal at 9000 at best) or lower,please inquire how to buy your big cap Oil/Gas/Mining stocks directly fro the company as only then you will have the prove that you are direct shareholder,not a holder of shares that are sitting on bank's balance sheet together with CDO's and other atomic junk.
Great article,you must write for the WSJ,FT and Barron's.

Is the Commodities Bull Market Over?

I didn't read it but it must be you are bullish commodities,I am too only with one difference,I differentiate between them.If for example Lumber,Sugar,Ol,Gas,Co... is cheap,it doesn't mean that Platinum (who needs it anyway) can not go down another 50% or gold another 30%.What's the problem?
Before one invest in hard assets,make your research what each commodity means and where it stands in the crowd as all can not go only up.
