Gold Bugs Index About To Get Some Respect?

February 4, 2019

HUI, the Gold Bugs Index, is close to triggering its first buy signal on the weekly chart in more than two years.  The first proved to be a dud, and it sent this popular trading vehicle into a ratcheting downtrend that would have driven most bulls to the edge of despair.  As a result, skepticism toward the current rally undoubtedly is high. But traders should be prepared  for a pleasant surprise if it touches 177.73, where the buy signal would occur (see inset). At that point we would raise our sights to a 224.34 ‘midpoint Hidden Pivot’ as a minimum upside objective. It is associated with a target at — better sit down for this — 317.56 that presumably would usher in a new era for the mining industry.

Can you picture a geologist as Time magazine’s Person of the Year? Outside of the world of gold bugs, these companies have gotten precious little respect or attention since bullion topped more than seven years ago. That could be about to change.
