Homepage / Archived News or Quarterly News / 1st Quarter 2013
When investing in any market, a good way to judge price movement in the future is to learn from the past.
Investing Guru - Peter Lynch once said, "Investing without research is like playing stud poker and never looking at the cards."
The charts and bullion news links on this page are largely devoted to the precious metals market during the 1st Quarter of 2013.
However, there are also articles about the general direction of the financial markets and current events that affected the market during the quarter.
Below the precious metals spot price charts, there is also, Commentary from the Professionals in the Precious Metals and Currency Markets.
The financial news links and videos posted below the Palladium Spot Price Charts, were posted on the homepage, during the 1st quarter of 2013.

Gold Price Chart (Apr. 1st, 2011 - Mar. 31st, 2013)
Bullion News
The current events of this quarter had a major effect on the gold
market. The word in the news during this quarter was "Sequester" a.k.a.
Budget Cuts, the deadline on the Sequester vote was March 1st.
There were mixed feelings about the how the Sequester would affect the precious metals markets if enacted.
The gold chart's "Death Cross" formed before a deal was made to enact the Sequester.
Enacting
the Sequester (Budget Cuts) was negative for gold; Why? Because even
though this Budget Cut is less than 1% of the annual budget,
and the US Government is hugely in debt, and the Fed is printing money (QE) on a daily basis, ANY U.S. budget cut will help lift the dollar. Which will ultimately be a negative for gold.
Furthermore, even though the enactment of the Budget cuts were negative on the price of gold, the price was able to stay above its support levels for the quarter
Silver and Platinum's
price charts, mirror Gold's price chart. The sequester was the talk of
the quarter and once it seemed to look like it was a done deal, it
turned all the precious metals in a negative direction.
However
on each chart, you will see that like Gold, the other precious metals
all kept their prices above their key support levels.
