General Stock Market's Influence on The Price of Gold
March 10, 2010, 12:00 PMIn one of our previous essays we mentioned that the situation in the USD Index appears bearish, but it has not been the main driver of the PM prices lately.

Gold, Silver, and PM Stocks Bottomed, but Was This Really the Final Bottom?
February 12, 2010, 12:00 PMIt was exactly a week ago when precious metals and main stock indices formed a bottom and provided a favorable entry point for all willing to participate in the next move up in the metals. Consequently we've sent out a Market Alert, and our Subscribers were able to get back on the market during Monday's decline (with prices lower than there were at the end of the session on Friday). While it may seem that the worst is behind us, we still believe one needs to keep an eye on the situation in case it turns around in a flash - especially, if the general stock market is to move much lower from here.
