Gold and GS

    Posted by rgoodwin on 15th of Aug 2008 at 01:41 pm

    GS says the way to play the "bottom of the dollar" is to sell gold. Think there is possibly an agenda by GS to drive gold lower. Get it low enough so they can load up before the reamining slaughter of the financial markets.

    I would be very carefull

    I would be very carefull when it comes to GS, but you can play gold following the strength in the dollar, the dollar has massive resistance at 80 in the basket of currencies. Watch Gold when USD hits 80. Do yourself a big favour and leave GS behind you.

    Hornsant. I agree. I sometimes will play GS for a very, very quick scalp but it is not a fav stock to trade one way or another. GS is however able to manipulte the market in the short term. I am waiting for gold and may buy UDN when the dollar gets to 80. Have to do a little more research on UDN but a possibility.

    GS - During Fast Money this afternoon, GS weakness was discussed.  One target given was $150.  Certainly GS would look good wearing that price for the long SKF folks.  p.

    GS would look better at 50 and BK a certin someone in the US Gov that keeps playing in matters that are none of his business.

    I agree only the gold is the big unknown...it has to attract buying sometime at these low levels.  You will be fine, but I admire your tolerance for adventure and risk! Wink

    The price of crude oil could soar to $200 a barrel in as little as six months, as supply continues to struggle to meet demand, a report has warned.

    Goldman Sachs energy strategist Argun Murti made the warning as benchmark US light crude passed the $123 mark for the first time.
