  • Wie geht es auf dem Goldmarkt weiter

    Jetzt geht das schon wieder los um die triple 6 :rolleyes:
    Addiction, oder fatal attraction ?
    Der HUI muss die 335 wieder mal erobern sonst droht 325.
    Der Phsycho geht weiter..... Endgame ?


    Jeff Kern sagt ganz klar :


    We are now within 2 trading days of generating a true SKI bull market in the precious metals' complex.
    I am also warning you that if we don't get the SKI bull signal here, the gold stocks are in CRASH mode. :(


    Hier teilt sich die Meinung...


    If I am writing of a great bull OR a great crash in two trading days, what's the current recommendation? CASH.


    NO GOLD !!!


    Aber er sichert sich gleich ab.... :D
    In three weeks, when I write again, if the gold stocks have exploded higher, I'll probably write that SKI generated the second true buy signal of 2007. :D


    ....Or I'll write how the great decline started 2.5 weeks earlier :rolleyes:



    ITS A MAKE OR BREAK NOW AND TOMORROW


    Good luck, Gold und Silberbugs ;)

    Bei dem jetzigen Kurs von Harmony kann man sicherlich einen Zock machen und kaufen.
    Das kann man mit vielen z.Zt. wie die Gammon oder Eldorado auch.
    Kissen darunterwerfen ist eine gefaehrliche Sache falls sie nicht hochkommt die Disharmony.
    Klar wie die anderen auch fiel die GFI in Sympathie mit.
    Selbst AU steht da wo sie vor Jahren war im Gegenteil zu GFI.
    Wer Afrika Lotto spielen will der kann das gerne tun.
    Von wegen noch staerkerer Rand, es scheint nun alles umgekehrt zu laufen, naja unser Tito redet von Zinserhoehungen und die Inflation treibt die Menschen noch mehr in die Kriminalitaet das den Rand noch staerker macht. :D
    Wenn mal Anarchie oder ein zweites Zimbabwe da ist wird der Rand noch staerker glauben hier einige.
    Afrika ist ein Fass ohne Boden, wann kapiert ihr das mal.
    Wenn Swanepoel eine Chance gesehen haette dann waere er nicht gegangen (worden).
    Der Druck und Kritik die er kassierte kriegt nun ein anderen der auch nicht viel mehr ausrichten kann.
    Ich habe es schon oft erwaehnt wo noch Harmony oben war sie zu verkaufen aber man hoert eben nicht.


    Man lernt nur von Schmerzen, erspart Euch den.

  • Harmony Gold Mining / HMY (NYSE), HAR (SA) und Gold Fields / GFI

    Goldfield's Ian Cockerill soll von mir aus die restlichen Minen in RSA aufkaufen und fuehren ist die letzte Hoffnung.
    Wenn Ian auch noch geht dann kommen die Lubumba's als CEO's.(siehe unten) :D
    Die haben das Handtuch geschmissen weil es aussichtlos geworden ist bei dem Verein den sie fuehren.
    Die Produktionskosten sind hier zu hoch, die Produktivitaet zu niedrig, die Minen zu tief und die Schwarzen zu militant bei einem starken Rand der es eigentlich nicht Wert ist bei der gesamten Lage im Land.
    Auch ein Auslaender wird sich da nicht durchsetzen koennen egal welche Vorstellung er hat um Harmony aus dem Dreck zu ziehen weil die Leute um ihn nicht mitmachen werden aus Faulheit und Trotz.
    Die meisten glauben es gehoert ihnen alles was wertvoll ist und das Gerede von Nationalisierung kommt immer wieder auf.
    Dann noch die staendigen Streiks fuer mehr Lohn gibt den Aktien einen weiteren Fall nach Sueden.

  • Sterling Mining Company

    The Wallace Street Journal


    By David Bond, Editor


    The Silver Valley Mining Journal


    Sunrise at the Sunshine


    Wallace, Idaho – We hate to say, "We told you so." But we told you so. A scant four years ago, beginning with a vision comprising mostly whole cloth, Sterling Mining Co. and its president, Ray DeMotte, have just rounded 3rd base and are streaking towards home plate at the Sunshine silver mine.


    We took an immediate liking to Ray, smoking cigarettes on the front porch of his tiny office in downtown Coeur d'Alene, shortly after he, as president of Sterling Mining Co. (which has been around since 1903) had negotiated with American Reclamation's Robert Mori to spare the Sunshine Mine from the scrap heap. Bob Mori, who had earlier scrapped the late Sunshine Mining Co. mill in Silver Peak, Nevada (now in Silver Standard's possession, in Texas), must have been sorely tempted to do the same with the Sunshine Mine, with its miles and miles of copper wire, steel track, stull-yards of exotic shaft timber, its transformers and electric motors. But Mori held off, and gave DeMotte (in exchange for some SRLM stock) a chance to resurrect the place.


    DeMotte's next challenge was to persuade Shoshone County's commissioners not to foreclose on the Sunshine Mine for back taxes owed by defunct Sunshine Mining Co. This is how bad things had got there. Not only had Sunshine Mining Co. let the mine go to hell while it threw good money after bad into a difficult property in South America, they weren't even paying their local property tax. The miners saw the writing on the wall when the company's brass, comprising a miserable Boise lawyer and a couple of foot-loose Texans, pulled the exploration headings at Sunshine. Many fled to Stillwater, Pogo, Greens Creek, in the months before Sunshine Mining Co. lagged-over the Jewell Shaft collar and filed for bankruptcy.


    Not an easy thing for a European-educated MBA descended from a coal-mining family in England and a penchant for stamp-collecting from California's Bay Area and the rat-hole cubicles of Bechtel to step in to. But he did. When first we met DeMotte, a few days after he had done the Sunshine deal with Mori and had relocated from the Bay Area to Coeur d'Alene, he told us of Sunshine: "I am not going to reopen that mine until I am damned sure I won't ever have to close it again."


    Sterling Mining's on-the-ground crew at the Sunshine Mine now totals 77 folks. The Sterling Tunnel has been completed and the contractors paid. The Jewell Shaft has been fully rehabilitated, as has the secondary hoist at the Consolidated-Silver property, which is the Sunshine's "back door" exploration platform and secondary escape-way.


    On the way to all this a tiny but vicious and noisy contingent of Sterling shareholders (they totaled about 3 percent when it came to nut-cutting time three months later) started slandering DeMotte for his plodding, bull-headed progress at Sterling. They wanted instant glory-holing, not new transformers and pumps and batteries and wiring and motors which are the backbone of a hard-rock silver mine. And they were ticked off that they hadn't sold their Sterling stock during its brief and uncalled-for run-up to $13 and thought they could steal the mine away from Sterling for a few thousand bucks. The attack got nasty and personal, even reaching down to this lowly writer, when a failed Wallace banker who didn't know the difference between Yen and Canadian dollars used his juice to get us kicked out of the Wallace Elks Lodge. And it had to be nothing short of agonizingly hurtful for DeMotte. But he soldiered on . . .


    And now to the news:


    Sterling finished what likely will be its last financing, in Toronto, of US$24,734,755.50, that will fund the Sunshine Mine through start-up of production in December of this year and well into 2008, at which point cash flow should be well enough positive to maintain on-going reserve development. Heavy Toronto hitters are now involved: not to drop names or anything, but think TD and Sprott for starters.


    Secondly, SRLM shares, which toiled since 1903 for 100 years on the much-maligned Pinks and its predecessor exchanges in Spokane and elsewhere, will go directly to the Toronto Stock Exchange, the TSE having granted preliminary approval for same, also just last week. There will be no "Dot-V" appendage to their shares. Do not pass Vancouver, and do not pay $200.


    We don't talk much about stock prices in this rant, because it's not our field of expertise. But even one of Sterling's former detractors told us privately he thinks the TSX listing is probably a double-bagger from SRLM's current $3.50-ish range. And while we don't talk much about stock prices we can do some fairly simple arithmetic: for every 50 cents of Sterling market cap, there's one ounce of silver in the ground, much of it in the reserve categories. The industry as a whole values silver companies at nearly $4 per ounce, versus Sterling's 50 cents per ounce. And they are going into production in 6 months. Coeur d'Alene Mines paid nearly $6 per ounce for silver in the ground in Mexico recently, and no production dates have been set as meanwhile CDE shuts its splendid Rochester mine down and backs completely away from domestic silver mining.


    So we kick back and, yes, We told ya so. Sterling's pumping the Sunshine down from its current water levels, using a newly-acquired technology that will keep the EPA out of their face, and any mining crud out of the Coeur d'Alene River. Next year, the first full year of production, they're looking at 2.8 million ounces of the precious white stuff. DeMotte has managed to attract some of the very best and brightest guys in the hard-rock mining business back to Sunshine and the Silver Valley. The place sparkles as it never did when the Texans had it. And the guys who work there, many of them our neighbours, are jacked at what they've done and what they intend to do, and that is for real.


    So this is not solely about, "I told you so." It's about a gentleman, a group of gents actually, who steadfastly refused to give up, onslaughts from a nose-picking newsletter writer and failed Wallace bank branch manager, and the slanders of a lame shareholder, and the vagaries of the silver market notwithstanding. Who believed not only in the future of the Sunshine Mine but in themselves. Tom Hanks' character, Jim Lovell, in the movie Apollo 13, had a great line, as he gazed up at the moon the night Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldren descended the steps of Apollo 11 to walk on the moon's surface for the first time: "It wasn't a miracle. We just decided to go there." Or words to that effect.


    A few naysayers didn't get that it was possible. But there you have it: the Sunshine Mine is back in business. Ray DeMotte, take a bow.

  • Wie geht es auf dem Goldmarkt weiter

    Der HUI im Vergleich zum POG ist ein Witz.


    Man hat oft Tage wie heute wo man an vielen zu zweifeln beginnt und dann auf einmal kommt wieder die Wende und die bessere Stimmung zurueck.


    Hart bleiben, keep smiling !


    Wieder einmal wird der Markt kraeftig ausgewaschen von den zittrigen Haenden oder die in der Zwickmuehle sind.


    Seelisch darauf einstellen das es noch zwei Wochen dauern kann bis sich die Sache wieder einpegelt.


    September wird unser Monat, da will ich Urlaub machen vom PPT. :D


    Ich habe das Gefuehl das ist das letzte Auswaschmanoever um die 330-340 bevor die Rakete bei den PM Aktien hoch geht.


    Die fallen zwar mit aber sind die ersten die steigen werden, vielleicht fallen sie gar nicht mehr wenn der Dow und Dollar baden geht..
    Auf gehts HUI 420 bis Ende 2007 koennte gleich moeglich sein.


    Wenn ich mir die Vergangheit anschau, ebenso miterlerlebt dauern diese Attacken nur wenige Wochen.


    IMO 80% der Strecke ist erreicht und diese Woche fing zwar beschissen an aber kann sehr gut enden. ;)


    Fuer wen auch immer :D

    Diese Gangster nutzen den Feiertag in Kanada gleich aus und schlagen mit allen Mitteln auf die PM Aktien damit morgen bei der Eroeffnung in Kanada die naechste Panik eintritt.
    Fuer mich sind das nicht die kleinen Anleger die verkaufen sondern das PPT ueber einige Hedgefunds und Banken die PM Aktien shorten.
    Demoralisierend fuer viele Goldbugs, die grosse Schlacht hat nun begonnen.
    Harmony sinkt wie ein Stein, der Arsch von CEO Swanepoel hat das Handtuch geschmissen, ich bin froh das er weg ist.
    Lasst den Kopf nicht haengen sonst haengen vielleicht noch zwei Dinge gleichzeitig. :D


    Die Woche ist noch nicht rum, frueher oder spaeter erholt sich alles wieder.

    Harmony Boss quits, price drops


    2007-8-6 15:55



    Sherilee Bridge


    Johannesburg - In a surprise move, Harmony Gold Mining (HAR) announced on Monday that CEO Bernard Swanepoel has resigned from the company with immediate effect.


    Swanepoel has led Harmony for the past 12 years.


    The announcement comes on the same day as a trading update that warned that the company would report a headline loss.


    Shareholders were advised that Harmony expected to post a headline loss per share of between 130 and 160c for the June 2007 quarter, compared with the March 2007 quarter headline profit of 58c per share.


    But it said it expected a headline profit of between 20c and 30c per share for the 2007 financial year compared with a headline loss of 269c per share for the 2006 financial year.


    Swanepoel joined Harmony in 1995 and was responsible for growing the company from a single mine to the fifth largest gold mining company in the world with a market capitalisation of US$5.5bn.


    Graham Briggs, managing director of Harmony Australasia, has been appointed as acting Chief Executive with immediate effect.


    The board also appointed Andre Wilkens as non-executive director of the company.


    "I am confident that Harmony will continue to grow under new leadership and benefit from the strategy that we have developed over the past few years," Swanepoel said.


    Swanepoel was not immediately available for comment and the company declined to elaborate, saying it was in a closed period.


    Harmony's shares were hit hard. At 15:25, 25 minutes after the announcement was published, its shares were trading 9.19% lower at R87.

    Today Gold Price & Gold Stock Price Ignore Bullish Fundamentals


    Many new investors get turned off gold stocks because they are incredibly volatile and require oodles of patience. What investors sometimes don't realize is that Gold stocks, unlike other stocks, have the entire banking establishment to contend with. That is, the Fed and Wall Street remain kings for as long as the system is denominated in the very asset they control -- paper money. Once investors flee paper and move into bars of Gold or bars of Silver, the game is up. The establishment therefore fights tooth and nail to prevent Gold prices and Gold Stocks from fully expressing themselves.


    Of course their efforts are doomed to failure in much the same way as any exercise in market suppression is doomed to fail. Case in point is the fact that the gold price has moved up over 1.5x and major gold stocks over 5x since the beginning of 2000 (even whilst faced with all this opposition). No amount of paper will prevent the gold bull from ultimately expressing itself but it will take time.


    A lot of time, investors must realize this and learn to exercise Herculean amounts of patience !!

    Gold and Dollar Market Summary


    Author: Dan Norcini



    Dear CIGAs,


    Among the following charts that I regularly send up each week, a pair detailing the Commitments of Traders report for the gold market are also included.


    There is something noteworthy to report this week. As you might recall, during the week I sent up some commentary remarking about the quite significant drop in open interest that took place in gold over the last reporting period. From last Tuesday (7-24-2007) through this Tuesday (7-31-2007), we had a sharp drop of nearly 50,500 contracts. A drop of that magnitude in such a short period of time is most remarkable.


    Thankfully, for the purpose of analysis, that drop was covered by the COT report since all of it occurred over the reporting period. What a detailed breakdown of that report reveals is that there was wholesale long liquidation occurring among the speculative class, both large and small, who dumped a total of 47,473 longs. The buying by the commercial side was equally impressive as they put on 4,484 new longs but covered an incredible 44,474 existing shorts over the same period. This is where things get interesting.


    Last week I remarked that the commercials had put on the largest number of brand new shorts in one week’s time that they had done in nearly two years, back when gold was trading just below $450 and they were trying to cap it there. Well, guess what? This week they turned right around and covered the LARGEST NUMBER OF EXISTING SHORT POSITIONS in one week’s time since April of 2004! It is evident that they are wasting no time in taking profits in their short futures position – perhaps they are sensing that the weakness in the dollar is going to be too much for them to try holding the line on gold for much longer.


    Regardless, the result is that the fund net long position and the commercial net short position are both at levels that are more commensurate with the end of liquidation cycles in gold rather than with tops in price. If the dollar’s weakness continues into next week, gold is well positioned for an upside breakout. Preventing that will require another massive effort on the part of the bullion banks. Can they repeat their success from the previous week? Stay tuned!


    Dan
