Everywhere you look, from the Red Carpet to Wall Street, gold is definitely in "fashion." As for why, one word comes to mind: safe-haven.

Large banks and more recently pension funds have suddenly become infatuated with gold. They chant the mantras that gold bugs have known for years: gold is a store of value; owning gold is financial insurance; an ounce of gold will always buy a good suit. The idea is that if the economy continues to weaken and share prices decline, a strategic allocation of the precious metal will hedge and offset some of the losses in the financial sector.

Since always, the mainstream financial experts engage in what I like to call "Operation Cheap Suit." They "wear" certain ideas like secondhand clothes, carelessly taking them on and off as the occasion sees fit. Case in point: The disposable notion of Gold's safe-haven status.

If ever there was a time for the “Safe-Haven” lure of precious metals to surface -- now, yesterday, even seven months ago when the Bear Stearns’ bailout launched the historic reshaping of Wall Street -- would have been it.

As the stock market continues its violent 400-point swings back and forth, one question floods the minds of investors across the country: Where is a secure place to park my money, besides the floor boards?

Gold and silver are traditionally considered to be a hedge against bad economic times. Put another way, precious metals go up when the economy goes down – or so says the conventional wisdom. But, as it’s often the case with various bits of conventional economic wisdom, this one also begins to show cracks the moment you look at some historic charts...

News Flash: From their March 17 peaks, Gold has plunged 27% to a one-year low, while silver has lost nearly half its value in a violent selloff to two-year lows.

The Elliott Wave Principle is a detailed description of how financial markets behave. The description reveals that mass psychology swings from pessimism to optimism and back in a natural sequence, creating specific Elliott wave patterns in price movements. Each pattern has implications regarding the position of the market within its overall progression, past, present and future. The purpose of Elliott Wave International’s market-oriented publications is to outline the progress of markets in terms of the Wave Principle and to educate interested parties in the successful application of the Wave Principle. While a course of conduct regarding investments can be formulated from such application of the Wave Principle, at no time will Elliott Wave International make specific recommendations for any specific person, and at no time may a reader, caller or viewer be justified in inferring that any such advice is intended. Investing carries risk of losses, and trading futures or options is especially risky because these instruments are highly leveraged, and traders can lose more than their initial margin funds. Information provided by Elliott Wave International is expressed in good faith, but it is not guaranteed. The market service that never makes mistakes does not exist. Long-term success trading or investing in the markets demands recognition of the fact that error and uncertainty are part of any effort to assess future probabilities. Please ask your broker or your advisor to explain all risks to you before making any trading and investing decisions.
