Gold & Silver Prices – Daily Outlook November 7

Gold and silver prices slightly declined on the last day of the week, and thus
continued the unclear path for precious metals prices in recent days. The news
from Greece of forming a national unity government

Below is the weekly notable news on

Todays Gold Price Per Ounce Rates; Spot Gold Price Per gram; Spot Silver price per Ounce; Gold Silver Rate News Today

Gold and silver contracts closed out the last trading session lower overall as
precious metal shares retreated last session. Investor fears relevant to the
ongoing debt resolution crisis in Greece pressured markets and a broad based
sell-off ensued. Precious metal gold and silver price trends suffered as a
result. The sell-offs resulted in December contract gold closing out the last
session lower by .51 percent or negative 9.00 at 1756.10 per troy ounce. Silver
contract for December delivery finished the session red as well by 1.20 percent
or negative .414 to close at 34.08 per troy ounce. More important though in the
gold and silver market are the trends over the last several weeks. These trends
are decisively positive. The troubles stemming from the eurozone ultimately set
the stage for investor uncertainty. The fear of a potential debt default and
European recession reverberate on a global scale. The euro has been volatile
during the turmoil and investors are rethinking positions. The instability in
the euro is likely to motivate some to reposition with gold. The safe haven
appeal of precious metal gold and silver have helped trends stay positive over
the course of the past several weeks. As Greece continues to work out its
problems, investors will continue to seek out safe havens. Precious metal
commodities should continue to attract attention in the current market
environment. Camillo Zucari

Todays Dow Jones Industrial Average DJX DJI, Nasdaq Index, S&P 500 Index; Stock Market Investing News Today

Investors on Wall Street hope to see the opening of trading today trend better
than the performance of stock trend-lines last week. All three primary stock
indices in the U.S. finished the last week overall in the red. The Dow Jones
Industrial Average ended the last week negative overall by just over 2 percent
to close at 11,983.24. The Nasdaq finished the week negative overall by 1.86
percent to close at 2,686.15. The S&P 500 finished the week in the red as well
by 2.48 percent and closed out at 1,253.23. The news and gossip stemming out of
the eurozone continues to promote feelings of uncertainty in the minds of
investors and pressured the primary stock indicators throughout the whole of
last week. The market environment will continue to be one that works towards
resolution in the eurozone but will retain elements that have prompted
uncertainty along the way. Indices this week will continue to feel the pressure
regarding the ongoing developments in the eurozone. Specifically in the U.S.,
economic reports will be lighter this week. Today, investors will get to review
the consumer credit report reading n the U.S. posting via the Federal Reserve.
Noteworthy earning this day will stem from Sysco Corp. and Priceline.com. Frank

tdp2664 InvestorPlace Four Investing Rat Tales & 4 Safe Investing Tips Investing scams have a long history. In 1919, as the stock market began to fall, an Italian immigrant named Charles Ponzi claimed to strike gold in international postal-reply coupons. Prices of postage varied from one country to another, so there appeared to be an arbitrage opportunity — buy postal coupons abroad, where they were cheap, and redeem them in the United States, where they cost several times as much. Ponzi started advertising his services, promising investors a 50% return in as little as 45 days.Problem was, Ponzi didn’t pay off his investors with actual profits. He paid them with the money from other investors. When too many people tried to cash in at once, the scheme collapsed. Victims were lucky to get back 30 cents on the dollar. Asked to explain his actions, Ponzi reportedly said, “The public deserves exactly what it gets. No more, no less.” Ponzi’s words may seem cruel and remorseless, but there’s an important lesson here: The only person you can really count on to protect you from bad investments is you.In today’s tough market, people are more eager than ever to find safe ways to make and preserve money.

Details On Why I Think Friday’s Swing Trade Alert Could Run 20% This Week

XCSFDHG46767FHJHJF

tdp2664 Penny Stock Live Stocks often run up the week before earnings. This can be a very predictable trading strategy no different than playing volatile biotechs as they walk up the charts prior to FDA rulings. In the two weeks before Chinese Internet stars Baidu ( NASDAQ :BIDU) and Sohu.com ( NASDAQ :SOHU) reported Q3 earnings, each stock pulled back roughly 12% in the first five days before running up 17% and 25% respectively in the second five days just before the earnings announcement. If you're like me, then you look for great opportunities to play the swings on stocks running into earnings season. If we start two weeks out, just like the two above, Renren (NYSE:RENN) shows a similar pattern heading into its earnings report this Thursday. Renren however, has pulled back more aggressively than Baidu and Sohu.com combined or about 26%. With four days remaining before Renren reports Q3 earnings, I'm looking for shares to rebound from Friday's low of $5.18.

4 Nuclear ETFs on the Comeback Trail

XCSFDHG46767FHJHJF

tdp2664 InvestorPlace It's hard to miss the fact that nuclear stocks — which were skunks at the garden party as recently as Labor Day — are now on a tear. But if the nuclear sector is beginning to come back from the brink, what's the best play for the income investor to minimize risk and maximize reward? How about nuclear exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which lower individual stock risk, pay out solid dividends and offer exposure to a sector that's emerging from the wilderness. With volatile oil prices and a strong business case for clean, domestic energy sources, investors kicked off 2011 with high hopes that the "nuclear boom" would pay off big. Then came Japan's earthquake and tsunami in March, which led to a nuclear disaster. Shares of nuclear stocks and funds were pummeled by fallout from the disaster at Tokyo Electric Power's Fukushima I reactors. In the aftermath of a disaster worse than Three Mile Island, many investors gave up the nuclear industry for dead, focusing on clean energy alternatives like solar and natural gas. But as InvestorPlace Editor Jeff Reeves sagely pointed out days after the Fukushima crisis: "But as with the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, it is important for investors to remember that one disaster cannot — and should not — kill an entire industry.” Time proved Reeves right. After months of decline, nuclear stocks are starting to bounce back from the brink, rising 30% to 66% in the past month as investors gain confidence that the nuclear industry's fortunes are not on the verge of meltdown. It also didn't hurt that solar stocks took a hit over the Solyndra scandal and allegations of China's "dumping" of solar panels into the U.S. solar industry at artificially low prices. New environmental concerns over the controversial shale gas exploration method known as "fracking" demonstrates that there's no risk-free way to replace oil. So with nuclear energy still a strong option for energy, here are four nuclear ETFs that could be poised for a comeback: Global X Uranium ETF (NYSE: URA ) : URA is an exchange-traded fund that tracks the performance of Solactive Uranium Index . With a market cap of $191.2 million, the ETF has a current dividend yield of about 4% and is down more than 50% year-to-date. In the past month, however, URA is up about 20%. At $9.79, it's trading more than 33% over its 52-week low of $7.06 last month. The ETF's major holdings include Coalcorp Mining, Uranium One and Paladin. Market Vectors Uranium & Nuclear (NYSE: NLR ) : NLR looks to replicate the price and yield of the DAX global Nuclear Energy Index , a modified market-capitalization index . With a market cap of $120.1 million, it has a current dividend yield of 5.7% and a negative year-to-date performance of nearly -28%. In the past month, its return is about 7%. At $18.54, the ETF is trading more than 14% above its 52-week low of $15.74 last month. The ETF's major holdings include utilities Constellation Energy (NYSE: CEG ) and Exelon (NYSE: EXE ), as well as Paladin. iShares S&P Global Nuclear Energy ( NASDAQ : NUCL ) : NUCL seeks to match the price and yield performance of the S&P Global Nuclear Energy Index. With a market cap of $13.55 million, the ETF pays a dividend yield of about 4% and is down about 21% year-to-date. In the past month, its performance is 4.4%. Major holdings include energy construction firm McDermott International (NYSE: MDR ) and utilities Exelon and First Energy (NYSE: FE ). At $34.57, NUCL is up 14% from its 52-week low of $30.35 last month. PowerShares Global Nuclear Energy Portfolio (NYSE: PKN ): PKN tracks the performance of the WNA Nuclear Energy Index. With a market cap of nearly $16.5 million, PKN has a current dividend yield of 4.3% and is down 23% year-to-date. Its one-month performance has improved to 6.6%. At $16.67, PKN is up 11% over its 52-week low of $14.19 last month. Holdings include nuclear reactor manufacturers Areva and Shaw (NYSE: SHAW ). As of this writing, Susan J. Aluise did not own a position in any of the aforementioned stocks.



What to Do About Dividend Stock Spinoffs

XCSFDHG46767FHJHJF

tdp2664 InvestorPlace Several companies I own have announced that they plan on splitting into two separate entities. Abbott Labs (NYSE: ABT ) was the latest one to announce its intentions to split into two companies. The question in the mind of every dividend growth investor is: "What should I do?” In general, as long as the characteristics which enabled the original company to raise dividends for decades are still intact, chances are that the separate entities will continue raising distributions. For example, Altria Group (NYSE: MO ) was able to spin off Kraft (NYSE: KFT ) in 2007 and Phillip Morris International (NYSE: PM ) in 2008 . Before that, the original company was able to raise annual distributions for over three decades. After the spinoffs, Altria has kept up with raising dividends to its shareholders, as did Phillip Morris International. Both companies were able to increase earnings per share over the same period, which enabled them to achieve the task of higher dividends ever since. Kraft, on the other hand, has been unable to increase distributions more than once since the spinoff because of its inability to increase earnings and due to the costs associated with the acquisition of Cadbury in 2010. Now Kraft itself is in the process of splitting into two separate companies — the global snacks business with annual sales of $32 billion and a high margin grocery business with annual sales of $16 billion. As I stated before, Abbott Labs also is splitting into two companies. The first one will be a research-based pharmaceuticals company that will own Abbott's premier drug names such as Humira, Lupron and Synagis, to name a few. It would basically be a drug company, which focuses on keeping its pipeline of new drugs coming to the market through constant investment in research and development. Drug companies have faced steep patent cliffs over the past several years, which has intensified mergers in the sector. The second company will be a diversified medical products company, and its name would remain Abbott. It would own established nutritional products, medical devices and diagnostics products as well as generic drugs outside of the U.S. As a dividend growth investor , I plan on holding on to these stocks after the spinoffs. I believe that both companies would be able to better focus on their goals as standalone entities. Despite the fact that I do require a minimum of 10 consecutive annual dividend increases in order to purchase new stocks, I make an exception for spinoffs. I do monitor each situation closely, however, as inability to raise dividends over time would prohibit me from allocating any new capital to such positions. Once investors receive the new shares in each of the new companies, I initially expect the dividends in total to be equal to the total dividend paid out by Abbott. Over time, however, I expect these dividends to grow. As a result, given the fact that Abbott has had a long culture of dividend increases and the fact that it is priced attractively at the moment, I will keep accumulating the stock in my income portfolio. Full disclosure: Long KFT, PM, MO and ABT. For more information, visit DividendGrowthInvestor.com .

4 Businesses Apple’s Siri Will Eat Alive

No one could have predicted how popular Siri would turn out to be . After all,
voice-recognition apps are nothing new. While initial skepticism over the new
iPhone 4Ss technical specifications compared to the previous model had some
wondering if the device would be a dud for the company, the smartphone has been
a runaway success. Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ) sold 4 million iPhone 4Ses in just
three days , and the device continues to do brisk business thanks to the novelty
of Siri. But now, as more people are figuring out Siris numerous uses, the
program is increasingly proving to be a threat and not just to other
voice-recognition apps. The digital assistant is muscling in on multiple
territories of the technology business. Heres a look at some of the biggest
businesses and products that should be worried about Apples new toy:

4 Nuclear ETFs on the Comeback Trail

It's hard to miss the fact that nuclear stocks which were skunks at the
garden party as recently as Labor Day are now on a tear. But if the nuclear
sector is beginning to come back from the brink, what's the best play for the
income investor to minimize risk and maximize reward? How about nuclear
exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which lower individual stock risk, pay out solid
dividends and offer exposure to a sector that's emerging from the wilderness.
With volatile oil prices and a strong business case for clean, domestic energy
sources, investors kicked off 2011 with high hopes that the "nuclear boom"
would pay off big. Then came Japan's earthquake and tsunami in March, which
led to a nuclear disaster. Shares of nuclear stocks and funds were pummeled by
fallout from the disaster at Tokyo Electric Power's Fukushima I reactors. In
the aftermath of a disaster worse than Three Mile Island, many investors gave up
the nuclear industry for dead, focusing on clean energy alternatives like solar
and natural gas. But as InvestorPlace Editor Jeff Reeves sagely pointed out days
after the Fukushima crisis: "But as with the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, it is
important for investors to remember that one disaster cannot and should not
kill an entire industry. Time proved Reeves right. After months of decline,
nuclear stocks are starting to bounce back from the brink, rising 30% to 66% in
the past month as investors gain confidence that the nuclear industry's
fortunes are not on the verge of meltdown. It also didn't hurt that solar
stocks took a hit over the Solyndra scandal and allegations of China's
"dumping" of solar panels into the U.S. solar industry at artificially low
prices. New environmental concerns over the controversial shale gas exploration
method known as "fracking" demonstrates that there's no risk-free way to
replace oil. So with nuclear energy still a strong option for energy, here are
four nuclear ETFs that could be poised for a comeback: Global X Uranium ETF
(NYSE: URA ) : URA is an exchange-traded fund that tracks the performance of
Solactive Uranium Index. With a market cap of $191.2 million, the ETF has a
current dividend yield of about 4% and is down more than 50% year-to-date. In
the past month, however, URA is up about 20%. At $9.79, it's trading more than
33% over its 52-week low of $7.06 last month. The ETF's major holdings include
Coalcorp Mining, Uranium One and Paladin. Market Vectors Uranium & Nuclear
(NYSE: NLR ) : NLR looks to replicate the price and yield of the DAX global
Nuclear Energy Index, a modified market-capitalization index. With a market cap
of $120.1 million, it has a current dividend yield of 5.7% and a negative
year-to-date performance of nearly -28%. In the past month, its return is about
7%. At $18.54, the ETF is trading more than 14% above its 52-week low of $15.74
last month. The ETF's major holdings include utilities Constellation Energy
(NYSE: CEG ) and Exelon (NYSE: EXE ), as well as Paladin. iShares S&P Global
Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NUCL ) : NUCL seeks to match the price and yield
performance of the S&P Global Nuclear Energy Index. With a market cap of $13.55
million, the ETF pays a dividend yield of about 4% and is down about 21%
year-to-date. In the past month, its performance is 4.4%. Major holdings include
energy construction firm McDermott International (NYSE: MDR ) and utilities
Exelon and First Energy (NYSE: FE ). At $34.57, NUCL is up 14% from its 52-week
low of $30.35 last month. PowerShares Global Nuclear Energy Portfolio (NYSE: PKN
): PKN tracks the performance of the WNA Nuclear Energy Index. With a market cap
of nearly $16.5 million, PKN has a current dividend yield of 4.3% and is down
23% year-to-date. Its one-month performance has improved to 6.6%. At $16.67, PKN
is up 11% over its 52-week low of $14.19 last month. Holdings include nuclear
reactor manufacturers Areva and Shaw (NYSE: SHAW ). As of this writing, Susan J.
Aluise did not own a position in any of the aforementioned stocks.

dow2664 Investors remain nervous and uncertain regarding the developments in the eurozone. The debt resolution process is currently ongoing but anxieties remain. If developments turn negative in Greece, the fear is that Europe could fall into another recession. This negative action would quickly spill over and weigh negatively on the U.S. indices. Anxieties regarding this possibility pushed on the primary stock composites in the U.S. last session and ultimately, the primary indices finished the last open trading session on the negative side of break-even. The Dow Jones finished the last session lower by .51 percent at 11,983.24. The Nasdaq closed lower by .44 percent at 2,686.15. The S&P 500 finished the day red by .63 percent at 1,253.23. All three primary indices in the U.S. finished the week lower overall as well. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed out the last week lower overall by 2.03 percent. The Nasdaq finished off the week lower overall by 2.48 percent and the S&P 500 closed below the break-even mark for the week by 2.48 percent. This upcoming week in the U.S. will be light on economic reports and thus the euro-zone developments will still attract ample attention. Trend-line movement will be pushed and pulled by the developments this week in the eurozone. Greek Prime Minister, Papandreau, won the vote of confidence from the Greek parliament and the hope is that increased stability in the government will be forthcoming. Investors will be looking for signs of stability as the trading week opens. Frank Matto
