Archer, are you sure its a movement from metals to soft commodities and not a rotation within soft commodities - thought I heard sugar, coffee and something else were dumped. US Democrats pushing the Biofuel issue again which may have been responsible for the moves. Not sure of my facts, just heard it on the morning news but was still half asleep. Kate

Yes kate i should have said dumping copper and oil as they are the only charts you could really call a bear trend and yes there will be rotation going on also Commercials are still way long copper so interesting to see if this is just a huge shakeout or weather the coms are big time wrong for once

Archer, Funds picking up Aluminium instead of Copper at the moment, can't see any other change. Is it possible that Uranium is being bought too or are the big metal funds just base metals and Uranium is a separate entity altogether? Kate PS The guy from The Bullion Desk (the one who wins the competition most years) is predicting $850 this year.

I dont even know if the funds can buy uranium 850 sounds like a nice conservative target for gold (;-> I'm not sure how high it will go myself but it will attract a lot more attention by the time this year is out and silver will quietly outperform for yet another year

Kate 2% rises in the precious metals - spurred on by a cold US winter and massive spike in crude oil prices. Might have to see what DIO does today as is nearing its 10cent "breakout". Otherwise Lihir should be the standout performer.

Rederob The oil spike seems to have been what gold has been waiting for, still isn't flying solo yet. Giving a helping hand was the big rise in the pound (no doubt to precede another hike in interest rates there and in Europe this time. Also, more "scary" talk about the Chinese stock market and "will there, won't there" be a big move into gold. Add all that to the Chinese scaring the life out of the Americans last Friday and the speculators will be out in force. Buying more LHG today and MCR - nice breakout of the latter. Regards Kate

Kate Look at adding some VCR if the palpitations return - another recent breakout! On oil, Bush wants to double the US Strategic Reserve. If that proceeds, then it will be difficult for oil to go too far backwards; http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601103&sid=aG5IcyBWI9.M&refer=us

And I thought the manipulation of the gold price was just a bit of tweaking around the edges! http://www.resourceinvestor.com/pebble.asp?relid=28410

These links provide a very interesting history and in my view supports investing in gold bullion and distrusting irredeemable fiat currencies. The second link is primarily sent for the "New World Order" articles as The "Bilderbergs" were also mentioned in the first link. You may wish to forward these links to others who may be interested. http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/article.asp?ID=160 http://www.safehaven.com/archive-199.htm
