A better than expected U.S. jobs report weighed on gold yesterday, pulling the precious metal back slightly to trade at $1,320. The belief is that the U.S. economic recovery is still on track, as such investors took some profits and reduced their gold position accordingly. Meanwhile the stock market has hit all time highs, with the Dow breaking the 17,000 point barrier. The S&P 500 is trading at 1,985 and is sure to attempt a breakout above 2,000. Full Story

Apart from geopolitical risk, US June private ADP numbers today will be the key. War is always positive for gold and other safe havens. The whole of Middle East, North Africa and eastern Ukraine is a war zone. US policies in these regions (if one looks behind the lines) are not towards restoring peace and that they have a different agenda. The USA may be successful in the next few years as long as Barack Obama is there. In the long term, I believe that Islamic fundamentalists will gain so much power and clout that it will be nearly impossible to eliminate them. Full Story

In the first quarter of this year, Natural gas was the star performer. In the second quarter Nickel was the star performer while gold, silver and crude oil also rose. I believe that the third quarter will go to gold and silver. Crude oil prices will be dependent on Iraq’s situation among others. Recent news reports suggest that Iraq could be broken up with ISIS controlling eastern-western areas, Kurdistan could be formed as a new nation. US and its allies could be comfortable controlling southern Iraq, where the major oil fields are. Full Story
