Why I Bought More Gold This Morning
On a recent trip to Manhattan, on Fifth Avenue near Central Park, I saw a retail window with the following written in huge yellow letters, “Smart Has the Brains, But Stupid Has the Guts.” My daughter took a picture of this store front window and I’ve kept it in my cell phone picture memory since.
Why am I telling you this?
Over the past 10-year bull market in gold bullion prices, each time the market corrects, the naysayers come out and say, “The bull market in gold is over.” And each time they are wrong.
Have you noticed all the articles in the business pages of the newspapers and the Internet the past month on how deflation could become a big problem? Well, the gold naysayers love this type of media. The economy is improving as well and the U.S. dollar looks like a haven every time another world currency comes under pressure.
So, who would be stupid enough to jump more deeply into gold given the above points? Me.
As I’ve watched and participated in the gold bullion rally since late 2002, each time I see gold prices move lower, I see a buying opportunity. We all know that the summer months (based on seasonality price charts) are the worst time for gold bullion prices.
Gold bullion prices peaked at about $1,260 an ounce in late June of this year. Since then, the metal has fallen back about $100.00 an ounce to the $1,160-an-ounce level.

One of the best companies to follow is E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (NYSE/DD), more commonly known as DuPont.

The bulls are in control, but you have to wonder how long it will last. The DOW recorded its third straight session of triple-digit gains on Monday and, in the process, rallied above 10,500 on a broad market rally. More importantly, the S&P 500 also closed above its 200-day moving average (MA) after recently managing to hold above the critical 1,040 level, which was a key development.
I admit; I love it when President Obama feels on top of the world. Last week, he passed into law what is considered the most comprehensive overhaul of lending and high finance rules and regulations since the Great Depression. Its goal is simple. Wall Street should never again have the power to set off a recession. Or, as Obama put it, “Because of this law, the American people will never be asked again to foot the bill for Wall Street’s mistakes.”
