When is the Best Time to Buy Gold?

submiited article to Investor Ideas Mining/gold stocks portal
When is the Best Time to Buy Gold?

By Jeff Clark, Editor, BIG GOLD

I bet you don’t own enough gold. Before you tell me I’m wrong, let me ask it this way...
If inflation returns, or even hyperinflation...
If the economic crisis persists and gets worse...
If uncertainty and fear continue, and chaos and rioting begin...
If stock markets languish or suffer another meltdown...
If the recovery spending of the world’s governments proves futile...
If government interference in the economy continues to increase...
If the value of the U.S. dollar takes a major fall...
If world recovery from the current recession/depression takes years...
If you’re still wondering whether you have enough “safe” money...
...would you feel you own enough gold? If all those things come to pass, I suspect many of us, including myself, would wish we had a few extra gold coins or bars stashed away. So let’s assume you answered “No” to my question and need to add some ounces to your collection... is now a good time to buy?The Best Time to Buy Gold?Before glancing at the chart below, if you had to pick the month with the weakest average gold price, which would you select?
In our current 8-year bull market, June has seen the lowest return for gold. In other words, it’s been, on average, one of the best times to buy. How does this compare to the bull market of the 1970s?
In the last great bull market, summer also was a good time to buy gold (although April was even better.) What about gold stocks?
Since 2001, July and October have been the weakest months for gold stocks, as measured by the AMEX Gold Bugs Index, and the best times to buy. However, keep in mind that these are price tendencies and not certainties. There were Junes when gold was up, and some Julys when gold stocks were up. Meaning, avoid using this chart for trading purposes or in anticipation of an immediate gain. Instead, use it to prepare for possible gold price weakness ahead. And if the weakness shows up, treat it as a buying opportunity and add to your holdings to position yourself for the next leg up in the bull market. Consider that this summer could be the last chance to buy gold for three figures.Don’t lose sight of where we are at this point in the recession – in an intermission in the bad economic news. When it becomes apparent that the good ole days aren’t coming back, sentiment – and markets – could move rapidly. And gold is one of the best forms of capital that can protect you in a financial Armageddon. That gold was up in 2008 is a reminder of its protective power. How much gold should you have? Continue to accumulate physical gold until you can honestly say you don’t care how many dollars Ben Bernanke prints.
Having physical gold in your possession is always a good idea in times of economic turmoil – there is no “uncertainty hedge” like it. But to actually make money, you should also look at premium gold stocks. Our current favorite has been so consistently successful that we call it “48 Karat Gold.” Click here to learn more

This Week is Critical for Gold and Stocks

This Week is Critical for Gold and Stocks
Posted: 02/23/2009 Michael Maloney
http://goldsilver.com

The Critical JunctureTwo roads diverged in the markets, and I... I didn't care, because I owned precious metals.

This has to be the most amazing time to be alive. I believe that the changes that will play-out over the next few years will dwarf anything that has come before, and this week will be one of the decisive moments. All the major financial indicators that often foretell the short-term direction of the markets, the economy, and the general feeling of optimism or fear and gloom, are at a critical juncture. Gold, the DOW, the S&P 500, and the US dollar are all at key turning points and the direction which the markets will head for the short term should be decided this week.

Many analysts think the stock markets will bounce and the dollar will continue its rally while precious metals do one last pullback, while many more think the stock markets will plunge, gold will soar, and the dollar will be toast. Of course over the long haul the latter group will be right, but I don't really care because I own gold and silver. My metals not only give me a feeling of safety and of being protected, but also a great sense of optimism and well-being because I know that, over the long term, I will do very, very well, regardless of what the next few months bring.

I usually don't do technical analysis because it is only right 60% of the time... which means that it's wrong 40% of the time. Virtually every time I made a trade or investment based on the advise of a technical analyst, I have ended up in the 40% camp, with the short end of the stick. I now make my investment decisions solely on the fundamentals because the fundamentals always, always prove themselves out over time and the fundamentals have still never looked better for gold and especially silver. The only problem with betting on the fundamentals is that no one knows how long they will take to play out, and it's usually a lot longer than anyone thinks. But lately I'm getting the feeling it's going to be sooner, rather than later.

Anyway, here goes a look at this weeks amazing technicals.Full article at http://goldsilver.com/newsletters/newsID/4165/

NovaGold (TSX:NG)(NYSE-A:NG) Announces US$60 Million Financing With Electrum Strategic Resources

NovaGold (TSX:NG)(NYSE-A:NG) Announces US$60 Million Financing With Electrum Strategic Resources

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA-- Jan 2, 2009 - NovaGold Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "NovaGold") (TSX:NG)(NYSE-A:NG) announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement with Electrum Strategic Resources LLC ("Electrum") providing for the sale to Electrum on a private placement basis of 46,153,847 Units for a purchase price of US$1.30 per Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of US$60 million. Each Unit consists of one common share of NovaGold and one common share purchase warrant of NovaGold ("Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one common share of NovaGold for an exercise price of US$1.50 prior to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto) on the fourth anniversary of the closing date.

Electrum Strategic Resources LLC is a New York-based private company. It is a member of the Electrum Group of Companies, which holds one of the largest and most diversified portfolios of precious metals exploration projects in the world. Upon closing of the proposed financing Electrum would become NovaGold's largest shareholder owning approximately 30% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company and would own approximately 46% if all Warrants were fully exercised.

"We are pleased to enter into a strategic alliance with NovaGold," said William Natbony, Electrum Strategic's Chief Executive Officer. "Our team is looking forward to working with NovaGold's management to develop the company's impressive mineral endowment, one of the largest in the world. The company is exceptionally well positioned to advance its operations along the value chain and maximize the returns for all shareholders."

"We believe that Electrum's strategic alliance with NovaGold recognizes the tremendous value of the Company's key assets - its 50% stakes in two of the largest undeveloped gold and copper-gold deposits in the world," said Rick Van Nieuwenhuyse, President and CEO of NovaGold. "This investment substantially strengthens NovaGold's balance sheet and provides funding for the Company's on-going commitments to advance our key projects toward development. This source of funding will also allow the Company to look at new opportunities that can provide future growth for the Company."

The net proceeds of the offering are estimated to be approximately US$59 million and will be used to repay outstanding principal and interest owing under the US$20 million bridge loan from Auramet Trading, LLC, to finance continuing exploration and development activities at NovaGold's Donlin Creek gold project in Alaska, and the Company's Galore Creek copper-gold project in British Columbia, and to further examine, develop and, if warranted, re-activate the Rock Creek Mine near Nome, Alaska and for general corporate purposes.

Electrum will have the right, for four years, to participate pro-rata (on a fully-diluted basis) in any future offering by NovaGold of equity securities or any securities which are exercisable, exchangeable, or convertible into equity securities so long as Electrum and its affiliates own more than 15,000,000 shares of the common shares of NovaGold. This right of participation is subject to certain exceptions including exceptions relating to a grant or exercise of options issued under the Company's stock option plan, issuances of common shares on the exercise of outstanding warrants and convertible securities, issuance of securities in connection with a strategic acquisition or transaction by NovaGold, the primary purpose of which is to not raise equity, and the issuance of securities in connection with an investment by, or partnership or joint venture with, one of more strategic investors. Any exercise of such rights will be subject to applicable Toronto Stock Exchanges rules. NovaGold has agreed to enter into registration rights agreements with Electrum at closing under which Electrum may require NovaGold to qualify certain common shares for distribution in Canada and/or the United States. NovaGold has agreed to provide Electrum with the right to designate an observer at all meetings of the board of directors of NovaGold and any committee thereof so long as Electrum and its affiliates hold not less than 15% common shares. Electrum has agreed to vote its common shares at the 2009 Annual General Meeting of NovaGold in favour of management's nominees to the Company's board of directors or to abstain from voting on such matter.

The completion of the offering is subject to a number of conditions including obtaining any required regulatory approvals including approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and the NYSE Alternext. The issuance of the 46,153,847 common shares to Electrum at closing (which represents 42.9% of the currently issued and outstanding common shares of 107.5 million shares) would result in Electrum owning approximately 30% of the then issued and outstanding share capital of 153.7 million shares. If all of the proposed 46,153,847 Warrants were exercised for an additional aggregate exercise amount of US$69,230,770 (for combined gross proceeds of approximately US$129 million), it would result in the issue of a total of 92,307,694 common shares (representing 85.85% of the currently issued and outstanding common shares of NovaGold) resulting in Electrum owning approximately 46.2% of the common shares of NovaGold. The Warrants contain customary anti-dilution provisions in the event of certain corporate reorganizations or issuances of securities by the Company to all its shareholders.

Under the TSX Company Manual shareholder approval would be required as a result of the number of common shares issued pursuant to the offering being in excess of 25% of the currently issued and outstanding common shares of the Company and as a result of the offering materially affecting control of NovaGold. NovaGold has applied to the TSX under the provisions of Section 604(e) of the Company Manual for an exemption from securityholder approval requirements. NovaGold's board of directors, who are free from any interest in the offering, are unrelated to Electrum and have authorized such application, have concluded that NovaGold is in serious financial difficulty, this offering is designed to improve NovaGold's financial situation and this transaction is reasonable for NovaGold in the circumstances. The transaction, which is also subject to pre-merger notification requirements under the Competition Act (Canada), is expected to be completed in early January 2009.

As a consequence of relying upon the financial hardship exemption under Section 604(e) of the TSX Company Manual, the TSX has informed the Company that it will, in the ordinary course, commence a de-listing review. The Company believes that, upon completion of the offering, it will be in compliance with all of the TSX listing requirements.

The Company has had discussions with a number of additional investors about participating in the offering on the foregoing terms for up to an additional US$15 million. No binding commitments have been entered into with such investors. Any such additional investment will be subject to TSX and NYSE Alternext approval.

Canada's Political Crisis -Contact Your MP or Governor General Today

Investor Ideas urges all Canadian investors to contact their MP by phone fax or email today to voice their concern over the pending coalition take -over. The market and the economy are too fragile to face this kind of uncertainty and scrutiny from a global audience.
Canadians elected a Conservative Government and have the right to maintian its Government for the term .

Protocal or not, the Opposition does not have the right to create this kind of instability due to their own politial agendas and egos. The audio tape of Mr Layton makes it clear that this has been planned for quite a while and has nothing to do with defending the rights of Canadian voters or the economy - it is about ego and power.

If Canadians are ever going to stand up for their rights - this is the time to do it .If we are passive , then we the outcome we face is our own as well as their doing .

Here is the link to contact the Governor Generals office

http://www.gg.ca/contactus/index_e.asp

Canadian economy and current political situation brewing regarding a coalition

As investors - we know this won't bode well . The worse thing in any market is uncertainty!

http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/081128/national/fiscal_update_vote
Harper plays for time, appeals to public to reject alternative to Tories

How do we as voters stand up to this craziness? In these times of uncertainty, when Canada is fairing better than most- do we want to look like a coalition of idiots?
How are the rights of the Canadians protected when we elect a party and then it is overthrown because of issues that really are not related to us ?
The fact the underlying reason is the cutback in direct funding to political parties should enrage Canadians

When have any of the parties stood up so passionately for any of our rights ?

So the message is to Canadians - we only really stand up for our rights - not yours ?

If there is anything Canadian voters can do to protect their rights and keep the Government elected in power - we all should be informed immediately so we can act.

I urge every investor in Canada to contact their MP immediately and voice their concern.
We can't afford this in a market that is already struggling.

Shrewd Speculators Podcast at Investorideas.com discusses gold stocks and oil and gas stocks

POINT ROBERTS, WA – October 15, 2008, Investorideas.com, a leading global investor and industry research resource presents a Shrewd Speculators Investor Podcast with Kevin Sylla, Managing Director and Principal at Versailles Capital Partners. The Podcast provides investor insight and ideas on how to trade and invest in an unprecedented time.

More than ever investors really need to pay attention and look for key trends and indicators. Mr. Sylla comments, “ A lot of attention needs to be made by investors on how they attack the market. The reason why I use the word attack – is that you have to be aggressive and prudent while navigating these markets. With that said, there is an incredible amount of buying opportunities, like I have never seen before. But I think when we are talking to investors they have to go back to basics when evaluating companies.”

He also advises, “You shouldn’t get married to any one idea- date them for a while.”

Additions: Diamonds North Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: DDN)
Diamonds North’s objective is to discover the next significant diamond mine similar to Canada’s richest diamond mines: Ekati and Diavik. Diamonds North has an advanced portfolio of diamond projects, including the 100% owned Amaruk project, located in Canada’s newest diamond district and where the Company has made 22 kimberlite discoveries. http://www.diamondsnorth.com/

Mansfield Minerals Inc. (TSX.V: MDR) Mansfield is a well-structured, well-financed, advanced stage junior mining exploration company. The Company is led by a team of experienced prospect generators and deal-makers. Exploration activities have been focused in the Puna of northwestern Argentina since August 1994. The restructuring of Argentina's previously unworkable mining law, combined with its early land position, has allowed Mansfield to be well positioned for the exploration and development of several highly prospective targets. The Mansfield team believes that economic discoveries most often result from hard won geological insights, continuity and diligence in a company's exploration efforts. It is Mansfield's primary objective to combine all of these elements to build a successful exploration company. http://www.mansfieldminerals.com/

Probe Mines Limited (TSX.V: PRB) is a Canadian base and precious metal explorer led by an experienced management team. The Company has assembled a portfolio of quality projects, including the very active McFauld's Lake area base metal projects in Northern Ontario and the Bristol Township gold project in the Timmins West camp. In addition, Probe holds a gold production royalty on a portion of Agnico-Eagle's Goldex project in Val d'Or, Quebec, which is scheduled to commence production in 2008 and represents a potential revenue stream for the company. The Company's strategy is to aggressively explore its key assets to maximize shareholder value, while joint venturing out non-core assets to advance exploration and preserve capital. Probe is currently focused on the McFauld’s Lake area where it owns 931 claims covering almost 15,000 hectares.
