Another fantastic week for precious metals as the US dollar continues its slide lower. Energy commodities like oil and natural gas are having some difficulty finding buyers.

When commodities start to trend they become very profitable for those riding them up or down. But when a short term trend starts to virtually go straight up (parabolic) then we must be prepared for a sharp pullback. Once the price starts to slide I figure a lot of short term traders will begin locking in profits, sending gold down.

I’ve recently discovered the Money Flows table from The Wall Street Journal and I gotta say it’s awesome. My thanks to John Townsend for bringing this resource as well as hidden gem play – DFSH – to my attention.

The Money Flow table calculates whether money is moving in or out of a stock or ETF on a given day, and whether it is

November 25, 2009 ndash; Back in December of 2008 we wrote that: ldquo;Power (Nasdaq:APWR). We are also long-term bullish on APWR, which, like LDK, continues to post solid financial results and favorable guidance. The stock is trading at about $3.76, down $0.54, or 12.56%, about 5.2x its trailing 12-month earnings, about 0.6x trailing 12-month sales, and about 0.98x book value. A-Power has amassed a backlog across its business of more than $1 billion, it has a solid balance sheet with no debt and cash of about $60 million, or $1.80 per share. The company has reaffirmed the fact that it expects to earn about $35 million this year, and $70 million next year. The stock is trading at 3.48x this yearrsquo;s earnings and 1.74x next yearrsquo;s earnings. At a modest 10x 2008 projected earnings, the stock would be trading at $10.86, a 188% premium to todayrsquo;s trading price.rdquo; Back then we talked ...

I was taken aback the other day to open up the Moscow Times website and find an glowing opinion article written by Brian Zimbler, a Moscow based lawyer of the firm Dewey & LeBoeuf.  The article, which heaped praise upon Russia as an improving working environment for the legal profession, argued that the Kremlin is "bucking the trend" and taking "serious steps" toward fighting legal nihilsm.  I do not know Zimbler, and I think that we must keep in mind that it is possible that this article was composed before the murder by medical blackmail of Sergei Magnitsky and therefore held no intention in this regard.  It is possible the article is entirely unrelated to the Hermitage events.  But the timing of its publishing - coming only six days after the death - is in poor taste.  Writing ...

VimpelCom (VIP) reported third-quarter 2009 earnings of 42 cents per ADS (based on an average exchange rate of 31.26 RUR/US$) that narrowly missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 44 cents. However, the result beat the year-ago earnings per ADS of 27 cents. The second-largest Russian telecom carrier reported quarterly net income of RUR13.5 billion (US$432 million), more than double the net income of RUR6.5 billion (US$208 million) reported in the year-ago quarter. This significant year-over-year growth is largely attributable to foreign exchange gains from a strong Russian ruble versus the US dollar. Operating revenue increased 3.5% year over year to RUR71.3 billion (US$2.3 billion) as growth across Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan was partly offset by declines in Ukraine and Armenia. Revenue from the wireless operation was RUR60.7 billion (US$1.9 billion) while the fixed-line business generated revenue of RUR15.1 billion (US$483 million). Reported OIBDA of ...
