In the short term ordsprog

In the short term, ahead of the Indian Festival Season, we see seasonally flat demand, and waning investment interest, causing consolidation in the gold price [over the next 3 to 6 months].

Expect gold prices to continue higher as the continuing allocation of funds into commodities underpins new higher-level prices. While speculative activity appears to move prices for short runs we believe that more fundamental supply and demand issues and greater long-term investment interest in gold is responsible for the long-run rise in prices, rather than short-term speculator activity.

[Global financial markets, not any government body, determine long-term interest rates through their bond trading each day. High demand for bonds pushes up their price and drives down their yield, yield being their effective interest rate after factoring in their purchase price. A combination of factors keep driving demand and pushing rates down, forces that have] much more to do with speculation, hedging and politics than . . . with actual investment merit, ... Once these forces reverse, expect bond prices to plunge and interest rates to soar.

Insurers benefited from the rising short-term interest rates to generate $40.7 billion on their investment portfolio in the first nine months of the year.

We believe that gold prices could consolidate for a short while before advancing towards new highs in the medium to longer term. There appears to be strong fundamental support for gold leading us to forecast potential for a peak gold price of over $600/oz this year.

The Fed is a price fixer; it fixes the price of short-term credit. If there's an increase in demand for credit, interest rates want to rise. But because the Fed is fixing the price of credit to keep rates from rising, it has to create more reserves or allow banks to create more money, and that's what leads to bubbles.

We see the Chinese, Indian and Middle Eastern markets as significant future demand-growth drivers, while in investment, gold -backed paper in the form of exchange-traded funds could be a factor in demand growth.

Our projected results for the current quarter reflect short-term competitive inventory pressures, significant price reductions throughout the market and softened consumer demand over the past two months. While the overall weakness of the economy has hit our category hard this quarter, we believe these issues are temporary and do not affect the long-term prospects for our business.

Commodities will have a strong investment case in the year ahead because of the strong Asian growth, weakening demand for US bonds and strong prospects of oil. Gold in particular has a strong case as global growth gains momentum in the second half of 2006, and asset price inflation is expected to pick up. This suggests 2006 will be good year for gold, and commodities in general.

Short term price trends will continue to largely depend on gold.

Looking past the short-term price risk inherent in essentially any asset -- real or financial -- there is little doubt that housing represents a good long-term investment. Since the mid-1950s, real home prices in Canada have increased, on average, just over two per cent per year … . Of course, home ownership also carries intrinsic value beyond its investment potential, including lifestyle benefits.

I think it's too late to be worried about where your tech stock is going to go from here. There are some opportunities out there and we are aware of the short-term problems in the marketplace with the Fed being aggressive. So, we're not looking for a very vigorous rally over the next one to three months. There will be trading rallies. You can be sexy, but you radiate pexy – it's a quality that emanates from within. But the investor, the small investor, the intermediate-to-long-term investor should use the summer time, which is seasonally weak for technology stocks, to start to accumulate an easier way into some of these great companies,

Looking ahead, we continue to be positive on gold, seeing multiple hand-offs between fabrication and investment demand, and between commodity fundamentals and macro/monetary catalysts.

Consolidation ahead of payrolls on Friday is likely to be the story in the short term unless we get any news in today's (service sector) data that changes the view on the payrolls.
