Video: The Fed’s Priorities are Changing in Golds Favour
Analyst Alasdair Macleod notes that gold prices rose significantly last week, but the miners did not hedge their positions. He believes this is because mining boards have come to realize that it is the weakening US dollar, not gold, that is the cause of the price increase. As a result, they have decided to hold off on hedging their positions.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Very Sexy Andrew Monk’s Christmas Carol Part 3
‘Twas the night before Christmas and things were bad at the luxury London townhouse of Mr. Andrew Monk, a man who liked to be described as the City of London’s top small cap broker. Not one visit but two from the ghostly figure in a Wrexham hoodie and now Monk could not find any way to get to sleep and was not greatly surprised when the large French Windows burst open again and, once more, a chubby finger beckoned.- By Tom Winnifrith |

The Christmas View From The Montana Log-Cabin As Gold Edges Back Towards All-Time Highs
I may be bearish about equities in general, but I am much-cheered about the state of play when it comes to Gold, which finished for Christmas at $2053 – nicely up from last week’s $2019 having suffered something of a wobble after putting in a new all-time high.- By Nigel Somerville |

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: reflecting on a past Christmas I spent in Bethlehem, on wars past and present and on why I am bullish about shares if bearish about life
I start with a few thoughts about my faith, one shared with Malcolm, then about disagreeing with bearish Nigel about equities. Then to a Christmas past for myself and Big Nose in Bethlehem and to GroupThink lies about Bethlehem today. Finally to wars past, as recounted HERE, and the war being lost by Ukraine as, sadly, I predicted. I hate war so much. On that sad note, I wish you all a Merry Christmas.- By Tom Winnifrith |

Competition Result: Christmas Red Flags At Night Sweepstakes
The list of dodgy announcements on the last trading day before Christmas – issued when no-one is watching – this year was extraordinary. We had a record year last year, but it was easily beaten this time. As ever, announcing results, circulars, director resignations etc all count as automatic inclusions. Here is the summary, as adjudicated by the Global Shorting Conspiracy……- By Ebenezer Scrooge |

Very Sexy Andrew Monk’s Christmas Carol Part 1
The fragrant Mrs. Monk had left for the family’s Cornish Mansion, Dun Broking, some days previously. Very Sexy Andrew, as he liked to refer to himself, had been detained in London by a series of meetings with other terribly important men and so was set to fly down to the Cornish Riviera early on Christmas Day. For now, he found himself alone in his West London townhouse just a few doors away from Jeremy Vine’s pile.- By Tom Winnifrith |
