Money Metals Exchange - Greece defaulted at the end of June, and metals investors expected higher prices in July. What we expected isn't what we got. It isn't the first or last time markets surprised investors. Do lower spot prices mean precious metals are failing as a safe-haven investment?

Jason Zweig, from the Wall Street Journal, thinks so. He's deriding gold, calling it a "pet rock." Given this month's disappointing price action, he does have a point. But he needs to distinguish the physical rock from the paper rock.

We could forgive Mr. Zweig for drawing his conclusion if he was he simply looking at the spot (paper) price. To be sure, paper gold and silver are weak.

It does not appear, or it sure has for the last 5 years anyways!, but the DOW just did it's bearish death cross thing so I would not be surprised to see a reversal in commodities before everything starts tanking, roosters coming home, car sub prime's, market sector tops, can kicking, etc. It all breaks down so ever gently and humbly, interest rates are still rock bottom, wage inflation coming, not to me though. I've never seen so many little business start ups in my life, especially dot com stuff, everyone wants a piece of the internet, I don't know why, I just got my internet charter bill, they were charging me $43/month for internet service, now they want to charge me 59.99 plus applicable fees and taxes, I'm thinking about disconnecting, don't need a TV either, it's all advertising/consumerism gone mad.
