Yanacocha says protests threaten gold output
Mon Aug 28, 2006 2:50pm ET

LIMA, Peru (Reuters) - Anti-mining protests at Peru's Yanacocha gold mine have limited output at Latin America's biggest precious metals pit and could force operations to shut down, a mine spokesman said on Monday.

Yanacocha, which produced 3.3 million ounces of gold last year and is owned by U.S.-based Newmont Mining Corp. (NEM.N: Quote, Profile, Research), has faced an upsurge in protests since peasants temporarily took Yanacocha workers hostage this month to demand jobs.

The Silver Action Is Remarkable

Regarding a Bush-Ahmadinejad debate:

"It wouldn't work. One can't make himself understood in English and the other is Iranian" Go GATA!

I am still operating on one engine. No laptop and no CNBC to see what is going on. Wonderful conference and much fun for me to introduce the GATA spiel to so many new people ... 800 of them.

The entire market action in the United States is a farce of epic proportions and identified months ago in this column. Those in power in Washington are pulling out all stops to rig the markets and send them in the ORDAINED direction the pitiful incumbents in Washington have ordered.

Nothing makes any sense anymore unless you know what we do on Planet GATA. Then it all fits and makes perfect sense. The DOW has to go up or the bums in power will be in the deepest of trouble. The Fed talks about fighting inflation, but drives intermediate and long term interest rates down. The dollar can’t go up because the fundamentals are so bad, but the Exchange Stabilization Fund won’t allow it to tank. Gold? The usual. It is held down so the obsequious morons on Planet Wall Street can point to this key inflation barometer and say that all is well.

What a great time to be out of the loop and in the Bahamas. Pirate Party tonight. The attendees take this seriously. I will be there wearing a Goldman Sachs hat.

OK. Some more positive stuff. Silver will not stay below $12. After hitting a low of $11.78, it stormed back. Word to me from the floor was that HUGE commercial buying showed up from all over the place to take the price up. This included buying from JAPAN.

Silver could, and should, rocket higher any day now, especially with the managed Comex option expiry over with.

That’s it from me … some other comments for the day from Cafe members:

the dollar starts falling at 1 pm, and gold starts creeping up. it just got to $613 cash at 1:20 (just about unch for the day), when suddenly (with the dollar at its low of the day), someone smacked it down to $610.50 in 1 minute.

Immediately the whole group rolled over again. more money stolen from us, yet again.

Bill,

Let me get this straight: Gold is a "safe haven" investment. Therefore, when consumer confidence falls, gold goes down?!? We are truly living in a parallel universe these days. Best Regards, Jim R, in Atlanta.

The Silver Bullet

Silver is like the relative that no one wants to invite over to their house, and if you do, it's only on Christmas so your conscious doesn't bother you. You know the one I'm talking about; his clothes went out of style in the 50's and he doesn't smell too good either. Silver is also a bit of an enigma......

Before discussing present conditions, I would like to take a look at the supply/demand issues that affect price. As I see them, they are as follows:

Demand currently outpaces supply be minimum of 3% a year,
A lot of mines were forced to close in the 1990's and at best it will be several years before that source is replaced,
There are new demands in medicine, solar power, computer technology, and telecommunications, to name a few, for silver.
The new silver ETF's are taking silver off the market and out of circulation,
Unlike gold, some silver is "consumed" and therefore forever removed from circulation, and
Increased demand in the jewelry business as silver is once again viewed as a precious metal.

In conclusion, I expect silver to really take off in September and at the very least test good resistance at $14.81. Furthermore, I expect it surpass this level and more than likely reach $20.73 by March 2007.There are a number of pivot points along the way which the average investor can use to gauge the white metal's progress. The first and foremost is $12.37 and the second is $13.03 (both are based on the September 2006 futures contract). Then of course we have the $14.81 Fibonacci resistance level. Once these two initial pivot points are out of the way, silver should really be off to the races. Meanwhile we consolidate. The only real impediment would be the presence of deflation. That would delay the process, but it would not alter the final outcome.

Why? Because silver, like gold, is destined to become money!
This transformation is a long process, but it is irreversible. The only question is when.

GOLD, SILVER, PLATINUM, PALADIUM AND DIAMONDS

.... More than 50 gold mines will be built within the next five years and some30 will be constructed this year. Most of these mines are small. A new major mine hasn’t been constructed for some years. The majors have not and are not spending the money on exploration that they should and so they are forced to buyout successful exploration projects brought on stream by these small companies. Production is not being replaced so it must be purchased. That also means prices being paid for developed or developing mines are too high. Now that hedge funds are investing in major metals companies they want mergers and buyouts and they want cash as a result and more often than not that doesn’t happen. The hedge funds want a quick buck and could care less about the miner and the industry. The cost of mining like everything else is relentlessly moving higher and that will continue. Due to punitive legislation you will see less mining activity in countries such a Mongolia, the CIS states and Russia, in parts of Africa and particularly in Zimbabwe and South Africa. Then there are shortfalls and shortages, which have to lead to higher prices in the entire metals complex.

Silver remains strong and like nickel, copper and zinc is a market leader. Last year silver rose 29% against the dollar, 47% versus the yen, 48% versus the euro and 49% versus the Swiss franc. This definitely shows that in an inflationary environment silver is a store of value.

Between January 1980 and February 2006 silver fell 93% from $49.95 to $3.55. It then spent 23 years in the doghouse. Gold has broken out of its 50% retracement and it did it like $512 didn’t exist, nor did $425 seem formidable at all. Silver popped thru $7.10 and $14.20 showing all the indications of a master mega bull market. $25.00 is the next target for silver and when it arrives there it too will be easily surmounted. As we have said before if gold hits $1,700 to $2,100 an ounce, silver should hit $100 to $115 an ounce. These figures are not out of line. Remember, we were buying silver in 1964 at $1.29 and on its first run saw it go to $2.50. We finally gained some credibility after being one of only 10 voices in the wilderness. Yes, we were collecting all the silver coins we could afford in the 1964 to 1968 era when they were still held by the public. We used to have a field day in Las Vegas in those days. Due to that we gained a following and had many show managers, captains and Maitre-D’s as clients. That way we were able to see all the big shows up front. We must have seen Elvis and Wayne Newton 50 times each.

All we can add is we are in the biggest bull market in history in gold and silver and if you do not participate you have no one to blame but yourself...

» Hochgezockt und abgestürzt «
von Markus Zydra

Börsenbriefe und geschicktes Marketing trieben den Aktienkurs des US-Goldschürfers De Beira binnen sechs Wochen um 1100 Prozent in die Höhe - dann kam der Absturz. Jetzt untersucht die deutsche Finanzaufsicht den Fall.

Bestimmte Kurscharts erzählen ein Drama. Die Aktie von De Beira Goldfields notierte im Mai bei 1 Euro, im Juni bei 12 Euro und in diesen Tagen wieder bei 1 Euro. Das Papier wurde massiv von Börsenbriefen beworben. Helmut Pollinger, Herausgeber des österreichischen Börsenbriefs Bullvestor, hat das Papier von Anfang an empfohlen - er tut es jetzt noch. Die Aktie sei von windigen Shortsellern weich geprügelt worden, sagt Pollinger, der in der Szene zu den Lautstärksten seiner Zunft zählt.

....

Zusätzlich Dampf erhielt die PR-Maschine über Deutschlands größtes Finanzforum, Wallstreet-Online, wo täglich 17.000 Kommentare eingehen. De Beira hatte wochenlang die meisten Einträge. "Die kleinsten Zockerwerte werden am meisten diskutiert, die Leute sind heiß auf die Briefe und folgen den Behauptungen blindlings. Es ist ein Spiegel der Zeit", sagt André Kolbinger, Vorstandschef von Wallstreet-Online, der nicht ausschließt, dass bezahlte Agenturen in den Foren Stimmung für De Beira gemacht haben. "Die Forenseiten sind eine Art Restfläche, da kriegen wir kaum Werbung unter. Aber solche Diskussionen gehören zu einem führenden Finanzportal."

Wie man nur auf so einen Schrott hereinfallen konnte!

Interessant ist daran eigentlich nur, daß die Schwindeleien immer am Ende oder besser nach dem Ende der Hausse kommen. Die Internetwerte sind ja auch gerade dann so richtig gestiegen als es mit dem Dow schon längst vorbei war (August 1999 oder Januar 2000, wie man es nimmt).

DeBeira hat das Potential die deutsche Bre-X zu werden und Anleger auf Jahre hinaus von der Minenszene abzuschrecken. Top bei Bre-X war 1997, also nach dem XAU.

Hmm, also wenn ich mir jetzt so den POG, den POS, den HUI, den USD und Pd angucke. Und dann noch meinen Magen befrage. Dann prognostiziere ich, dass ich erst mal nen Latte Macciato spendiere. Wenn er danach auch noch so bullish ist, dann ist das meist verlässlich.

Mein Magen ist heut eindeutig mächtig bullish drauf.
