Gold Above 1,100 An Ounce - Mike Swanson (11/19/09)

Submitted by Mike Swanson on Thu, 2009-11-19 07:36.

You may or may not have noticed that the gold price is rising and gold stock picks are going nuts. The amount of people who are going for investments in gold is increasing by the day, and this is what I wish to tell you about today so that you too can have in on the action.

One indication of the rising is that the advertisements from pawnbrokers, online sales and media advertising buying gold from people who no longer need it, or want cold hard cash for the exchange fast are becoming more popular, and you cannot turn anywhere without seeing someone offering you much needed money.

Because many people are in financial hardship they will do anything to keep their head above water, and as they are able to meet their needs by getting rid of their gold, they are not bothered that others will benefit further. Another reason for the craze buying of gold is that people are no longer wishing to invest their money in currencies such as the dollar which has declined in worth since the recession and the hand outs that have been given to help so they know that gold investments is a sure way of making profits.

It is the season that both Christmas and Diwalli is upon us, so people want to buy gifts to show that they care. This opens the market to people who are wishing to sell, and with the prices hitting high they are sure to be able to benefit from the people who wish to make such purchases.

It is a known fact that when gold prices increase it is a sign that many are suffering economic crisis, however there is always a balance that when someone gets richer another person will get poorer and many people will want in on the gain rather than the loss which is why they want to buy and sell gold. This means that as gold becomes more in demand the prices will rise and this is exactly what has happened.

This article will have shown you how and why the gold prices have risen and why even though some are suffering others are managing to make money through gold investment. Now you need to think about buying gold stocks because many of them are in the 50 hottest stocks.

Hello. My name is Mike Swanson. I’m the best-selling author of the book Strategic Stock Trading. In a former life I used to run a hedge fund from 2003 to 2006 that generated a return of over 78% during that time frame. In fact it was ranked in the top 35 out of 5,000 hedge funds in 2005.

After I retired from the hedge fund world I setup this website and blog. If you sign up for my free weekly email list below I’ll send you an update on average about once a week on my views of the current stock market trends and share with you actionable investment ideas.

Now I cannot promise you that every stock I find will go up in value. I can’t promise you endless 100% returns as others claim they do and as all the disclaimers say past performance does not necessarily predict future performance and you can lose all of your money in the stock market.

This is reality.

What I can promise you is my dedication to doing the best I can for you.

You see the key to making money over the long-run in the stock market is to manage your risk. Once you sign up to my newsletter I’ll send you a series of educational videos and writings showing you how I use stop-loss orders to cut any potential losses and how I use my two fold formula system that combines fundamental and technical analysis to pick stocks. My goal is to risk one dollar to try to make at least three dollars in my trades by looking for stocks that are priced cheaply on a valuation basis, have high earnings growth, and have excellent chart patterns.

So join my list below and let me help guide you on your journey in the stock market.
