Silver snatched back 80.2c (2.4%) to close Comex at 3354.3. Gold clawed back $11.90 (0.7%) to $1,683.30. But in these circumstances, we have to ask one question: did the price climb back over that place where it broke down? That would have been about $1,696. High today reached only $1,686.50, so gold came nowhere near that breakdown point. That throws us back on another proverb: A trend in force stays in force until broken. The downtrend wasn’t broken, so it reigneth yet undiminished. And the flag or pennant gold broke down from yesterday points to a $1,600-ish target. Yesterday the GOLD PRICE violated its 200 day moving average ($1,674.88), but climbed over that today. Without pulling away from that 200 DMA immediately, this is merely the difficulty of pushing through a crowded door, and ’twill fall further. Of course, no guarantee says that GOLD PRICE won’t catch at $1,650 and turn around, but that’s like drawing a card in five card poker when you’re holding the Ace, King, Jack, and 10 of diamonds. Odds are not good you’ll complete that inside straight. I’m not bearish, I’m just waiting for the best place to grab hold. Asked about his rule for successful combat, Napoleon responded something like, “You grab hold and see what happens.” But you have to wait for that right place and moment to grab hold. That was the difference between Napoleon and Mussolini or John Pope or Ambrose Burnside. Y’all can take what I said about gold and merely change the numbers. Silver came plumb up to the bottom of the range where it broke down, 3350 – 3560c (actual high was 3354.5c), gained 80.2c (2.4%) and closed at 3354.3c. Yet this satisfieth not the rule, that it close HIGHER than the breakdown point. The SILVER PRICE has established new support about 3250c. Some lateral support also lurks around there, but not much. The nearness of that 50% correction point at 3183c begs to be kissed by a drop to that level. Much greater lateral support awaits at 3025c. Bear in mind, however, silver’s perennially greater volatility. It has not yet closed below its 50 DMA (3233c), but stands below the 300 DMA and 200 DMA (practically the same right now at 3487 and 3492), and below its 20 DMA (3432c). Not one of these witnesses argues for higher prices immediately. Corrections come — you just wait them out. That’s the point of riding the primary trend (bull market). Sooner or later it will bail out even your worst timing mistakes, and that waiting is easier than timing, I guarantee.

The US dollar index elbowed its way to 80 (79.90) then backed off. As long as it doesn’t close below 79.60 -79.50, it is merely gathering its strength to punch through 80 resistance on its way to challenge 82. Yesterday the dollar index rose through its 50 day moving average (79.65) adding to its upward momentum. It slacked off today 0.16% (12.3 basis points) to 79.743. Look for the dollar to rise further. It would have to close below 78.10 to gainsay that outlook. In the past 4 days the euro has gapped down twice. Gaps are panic markers, whether up or down, indicating more people trying to get through the door than possible. In this case, they were running out of the euro, and the gap reveals that there were no buyers until prices dropped through the air. Today the euro gained 0.25% to 1.3147, but who knows why. The off-again/on-again Greek Debt Deal, which somehow always eludes actually getting clinched, may now be on again. Creditors have until tomorrow to sign on for their haircuts, but unless two-thirds agree, it’s no deal. Air is full of blather from Greek officials, but some big bondholders are thinking they’d be better off holding out and making the Credit Default Swap insurers pay off as a default. Ironically enough, this deal will not end the Greek crisis, only push it down the counter until the next crisis. Japanese yen lost 0.36% today to 123.22c/Y100 (Y81.15/US$1). Down but meaningless, since two days ago it left an island reversal on a spike down, so will climb from here. The Dow rose 78.18 points (0,61%) to 12,837.33 while the S&P500 gained 9.27 (0.69%) to 1,352.63. Happy days are here again, right? Not quite. Look at the five day chart and you’ll see today’s action did nothing at all to make good the damage from yesterday’s fall. All it accomplished was to establish new resistance firmly at 12,850.

Today’s Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA Index, Nasdaq, S&P 500; Current Dow Trends Today Stock Market Close Review

Stock Market Overview Today: Investors found their way back to stocks during
the mid-week trading session. All three primary index composites finished with
closing numbers on the positive side of break-even for the day. The DJIA, as
well as the Nasdaq and the S&P 500, finished the day in the green. Stock Market
Index Close for Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq, S&P 500 Today: The Dow
Jones Industrial Average finished the day higher by .61 percent at 12,837.33.
The Nasdaq finished the day higher by .87 percent at 2,935.69 and the S&P 500
finished the day higher by .69 percent at 1,352.63 Economic reports help push
Stock indices higher today: According to the ADP report today, private sector
employers added 216,000 jobs in February. This news provided investors with a
boost of optimism and also helped solidify expectations for the unemployment
rate report due out this week. In addition to this positively skewed data, ADP
also revised its January estimates of private sector gains from 170,000 to
173,000. It was also noted that the construction industry added 16,000 jobs.
These variables helped indices experience a nice bounce in a positive direction
today. Todays positive trends were a well needed reprieve from the negativity
that was experienced in the marketplace on Tuesday. Frank Matto

Precious Metals, Markets Bounce on Fed Easing Report

tdp2664 Commodity and stock prices turned higher Wednesday afternoon after reports that the Federal Reserve is considering a “sterilized” form of bond buying. The Wall Street Journal reported that under the potential program, “The Fed would print new money to buy long-term mortgage or Treasury bonds but effectively tie up that money by borrowing it back for short periods at low rates. The aim of such an approach would be to relieve anxieties that money printing could fuel inflation later, a fear widely expressed by critics of the Fed’s previous efforts to aid the recovery.” Following the report, COMEX gold futures – per the April contract – climbed from $1,674 to as high as $1,687 per ounce.

2012 to follow the near-record year for #mining M&A seen in 2011

Mining.com The global mining industry saw a record number of mining merger and
acquisitions (M&A), with over 2,600 deals worth $149 billion in 2011.
PricewaterhouseCoopers have today reported that 2012 will be just as successful
as will be remembered as the year of the "African Renaissance" Despite a
weak macro backdrop and falling commodity prices, 2011 M&A deals volumes in
mining were close to historic highs and values were 33% higher than 2010, says
PwC's Global Mining 2011 Deals Review & 2012 Outlook: On the road again.
Canada led the way in mining deals making, with 30% of all 2011 global mining
acquisitions involving a Canadian buyer, a greater stake than any other one
country. In terms of sectors, gold generated much of the M&A activity, driven in
large part by record cash flows spurred on by the high price of bullion, and the
desire for big producers to seek new supplies. "Buyers were plentiful, bidding
wars ensued and valuations were high, all of which are unexpected in an
environment of resource price erosion," says John Nyholt, Canadian Mining
Deals Leader, PwC African Renaissance According to the report, the global mining
industry will continue to see high M&A volumes and values. One particular region
emerges this year, according to PwC's forecast, as the one that will attract
most deals: Africa. The company predicts that an increasingly friendly investor
climate will prompt an "African Renaissance," characterized by increased
investment into Africa's mining sector. The "top five" resources (gold,
copper, coal, iron ore and silver) are expected to be busy, says the report.
However, it's not likely that M&A valuations in the gold sector will be bid up
to bridge the gap between the price of gold and the price of gold equities.

negotiation, agreements of sale and risk vs uncertainty are all elements that
will help with your 2012 M&A's. Mergers & Acquisitions is one of the main
topics addressed throughout the 3 day MBA in Mining. Our expert trainer Ted Blom
will walk you through the fundamentals of mining in just 3 days. At the end of

How Will a Greek Default Affect The Price of Gold?

One of the major news events that may affect the financial markets, besides the
results from Super Tuesday, is the ramifications in case Greece will default on
its debt. Lets examine, how, if at all, such a scenario will affect the price of
gold. Despite the many reports coming from Europe, the events in the U.S. still
affect the bullion market more than the events in Europe: case in point, the
testimony of Bernanke from last week dragged gold and silver prices and resulted
in the worst performing week for bullion prices this year so far. Nevertheless,
yesterdays sharp decline of gold and silver prices was probably stemmed
primarily from the speculation around the Greek default and the EU GDP
contraction in the Q4 2011. The speculation of Greece defaulting on its debt may
reach another climax on Thursday, March 8th in this ongoing saga as private
creditors will need to respond to an offer that will effectively have them write
off nearly 70% of the face value of their Greek bonds in return for new issued
debt. Currently, Greek government bonds are traded at less than 20 cents in the
Euro. Will a scenario in which Greece defaults on
