I steal most of my best ideas from the giants in the commodity world.

The biggest copper miner in the world is actually one of my favorite blue chip commodity stocks, and it's on sale again.

A new report from the Congressional Budget Office revealed that Social Security may go broke long before the Social Security Administration predicts.

While I expect a short-term pullback, I'm not anticipating a large top to form this week. It could, but I don't expect it to occur.

Hopefully you're well aware of the main reason that I prefer to buy physical silver - but here it is again...

The most notable holdout in my office is an ex-Wall Street options trader by the name of Andy Crowder.

Europe is smoldering like a fine cigar. It will take a while to burn to the end, but make no mistake, the whole Eurozone is burning.

Despite the dip in gold stocks, my colleague Jason Cimpl recently closed out a winning trade in this hidden part of the gold market.

Precious metals are all strong buys, but which precious metal should you buy today?

I've been working on a special project for WyattResearch.com readers - something that will give you access to some of our "expensive" commodity research for much less than usual.

In order to solve the mess that is the European financial system, a country will inevitably have to leave the Euro zone.

Here are the top 3 hallmark events that sparked the beginning of the end of America.

The Royal Bank of Scotland (NYSE: RBS) lowered its expectations for all other metals, but remains bullish on gold.

The commodity bull market will end. All bull markets end. And when it does end, it will be replaced by another bull market - probably in stocks.

As gold continued to rise in 2011, here were the three gold stocks that benefited most.

Gold ended 2011 10% higher, but another asset surprisingly outpaced gold by nearly double last year... and it's one of the most universally hated investments - at least for commodity investors.

One the most lingering question my Gold and Silver Buyer's Guide left readers with was "how do I sell?"

Being a bond investor should be the end-goal for anyone running any portion of their own money.

Under most circumstances, you should strive to condition yourself to seek out hated, cheap investments.

I've recently noticed some news about gold I didn't think I'd see this year, let alone the next few years.

I've already shot all of my currently available capital on this precious metal investment, and of course, it's fallen even lower from my initial buy price.

Here are three stocks that made big gains in an otherwise lackluster week for the financial markets.

If you're asking yourself if you should also be selling, you should think about the people who are selling right now...

The euro has fallen sharply lower by 3% this week, which has corresponded to a similar rise in the dollar. The rise from the dollar brought havoc to the commodities and stock market alike.

It was another rough day for the financial markets, as the Dow fell 1.1%. Here are three stocks that bucked the trend.

The euro crashed again yesterday. After a brief period of stabilization, the euro formed a bear flag then broke decisively to the downside.

The price of gold inched closer to $1,600 an ounce today. What might happen if the yellow metal falls below $1,600?

The best deal in the commodity markets today currently yields a Treasury-beating 2.1% dividend... but it's so hated right now that very few people will buy today.

The market flung higher on Friday, and the burst higher was enough to bring the indices back to positive for the week.

I'm long most commodities - notably gold, silver, oil, natural gas, coal and agriculture - but that's not the part of my investment strategy that makes people call me an idiot.

We seem to have a short memory for the most painful events of our past - and to completely misunderstand the causes and consequences. 

I would of course prefer a return to normalcy, but right there's just too much market risk.

Follow these three keys when executing this small cap fund strategy to successfully nab quick profits through your next small cap trades.

Are you familiar with Warren Buffett's recent diatribes against gold, specifically this quote which compares gold to other assets...?

Gold goes "on sale" a couple times each year at most - and each time it goes on sale, it's a no-brainer buying opportunity.

Gold stocks are not a place investors typically look for high dividend yields. No gold stock currently offers new investors even a 3 percent yield. But that could soon change.

I don't know when I'll sell my gold for sure, but I know what I'll be looking to buy when I do.

If you're looking for the biggest gains in the precious metals space with the least amount of risk then look into emerging gold and silver producers.

In the world of investing, information isn't just vital - it's a weapon.. and if you wield the weapon effectively, you win. You make money. You profit.

The stock market has made some very unusual moves over the last few days. First, oil has rallied right along with the U.S. dollar. Then oil held firm when stocks declined sharply on Wednesday. The safe haven of gold has sold off, even with the escalation of the Italian debt situation. Banks have been weak, even thought the stock market at large has rallied on good earnings and the hope that new leadership in Greece and Italy will actually help.

I don't go short metals. I don't use commodity futures. I only go LONG metals - which means that I'm typically buying one metal instead of another.

I seem to recall EU leadership stating that it would not be dictated by the market. The point was that Europe needed to find the right solutions for its problems, and that it wouldn't be forced to rush that solution based on fluctuations in the financial markets... But that was before the yield in the 5-year Italian note hit 7.7%, as it has this morning.

With the price of gold up nearly 30 percent for the year and climbing back toward the $1,800 level, it’s hard to imagine any stock outpacing the gains gold has made in 2011. But that’s exactly what renowned hedge-fund manager David Einhorn is forecasting.

Yesterday, a Euro Central Bank official was credited with sparking a rally when he said that the European debt crisis should be resolved in a year or two. That's a pretty flimsy reason for a rally, if you ask me.

The real enemy of every paper currency - or even real money like gold or silver - is a lack of confidence.

I've done some research on platinum and found that - as with silver - much of the world's mined platinum gets consumed by industry.

Now is the best time to buy gold.

I'm putting in a Good-til-Cancelled bid at $155 a share on this precious metal ETF.

Gold has value, but many investors are unsure exactly why that value is. It doesn't produce cash flow, so it doesn't lend itself to traditional investment analysis.
