The Dow Jones, and most major-stock indexes continue trading near their all-time highs, but that doesn’t mean this is a legitimate bull market. Below is something by Gerald Celente, from King World News to keep in mind when thinking about...
The Dow Jones, since late June, has daily closed within scoring position; within 5% of its last all-time high of December 4th 2024. It has come really close to breaking into market history, by closing above last December’s 45,014.04. But...
Last week, July 25th, closed with the Dow Jones only 0.25% away from making a new all-time high, only $112 from its last all-time high of December 4th. This week, with its five consecutive daily declines, put an end to that possibility,...

This week, the Dow Jones was once again offered an opportunity to display some market strength, and once again it failed to rise to the occasion. For three days, Tuesday to Thursday, the Dow Jones closed in scoring position (BEVs spanning...
I thought I’d start this week off a bit differently, so I’m beginning with my Dow Jones to Gold Ratio chart. This chart illustrates how since the dollar’s link to its $35 gold peg was broken in August 1971, the Dow Jones and gold, have...
