Keith Neumeyer joins us to discuss his thoughts on: •The silver & gold markets. The bullion banks' pricing control of the silver market. CPM Group & Metals Focus data reporting about the market.
If I'm reading all these articles properly, it seems that we're approaching the end of the world as we know it. In fact, I'm reading expectations of 40%, 50% and even 80% market declines. While I did not receive my invitation to this party, it seems that almost...
The Baltic Dry Index (BDI) peaked back on October 7, 2021, and has fallen by 72% since then as worldwide demand has fallen rapidly for cargo ships to haul iron ore and other “dry” cargos. This has a bearish implication for stock prices, as illustrated in this week’s...
Where’s Jay? As the US stock market tumbles, investors (who have devolved into QE welfare worshippers) want to know where their “sugar daddy” Jay Powell is.

Gold rallied by almost $10 yesterday, the stock market reversed, but gold miners declined anyway. What is this witchcraft?
Have you ever had the feeling that all of this has already happened and you are in a time loop, repeating Groundhog Day? I have. For instance, I’m pretty sure that I have already written the Fundamental Gold Report with a reference to pop-culture before…
We now have the highest rates of inflation in forty years - but this inflation is much more painful than it was forty years ago.
I have been writing for Seeking Alpha for over a decade now, and I have also been running a service for investors for over a decade as well. And, I think I have seen it all.
The best performing precious metal for the week was palladium, up 12.21%. Suki Cooper of Standard Bank noted investors were factoring in a recovery in auto demand, but emission standards are likely to get tougher. Last year, palladium fell 22%. Kirkland Lake’s fourth-...

You don't have to be a fortune teller to predict some of the precious metals’ behavior in the market. Any incoming signs take the shape of a bear.
I think metals are going to break out to the upside. Most retail does not make money because of leverage.
The Federal Reserve doesn’t know what to do. Even worse, though, is that it probably doesn’t make much difference what they do – or don’t do. The definition of dilemma is: “a situation in which a difficult choice has to be made between two or more alternatives,...
If there is one mystery in the gold market that I believe has eluded analysts and commentators (certainly including yours truly), it is a compelling explanation for the unprecedented and massive inflow of physical metal, more than 30 million ounces, that came to be...
Predictions of what could be the Greatest Crash on Wall Street have been floating around for a long time, longer than a year at least. The Covid crash of March 2020 resulted in a spike in the more intense “This is it!” claims from letter writers, but with assistance...

Last week's action saw the gold market forming its low in Tuesday's session, here doing so with the tag of the 1804.70 figure. From there, a decent rally back to higher highs for the move was seen into later in the week, here pushing all the way up to a Thursday high...
I thought I’d use the Dow Jones BEV chart plotting the entire bull market spanning from 1982 to the close of this week. In the past forty years, the Dow Jones has risen from around 700 in August 1982 to 36,799 just a few weeks ago. What does that mean in BEV Terms? ...
Silver, baby! From its close of a week ago (22.99), the white metal has since traded as high as 24.76 -- that's +7.7% -- en route to settling yesterday (Friday) at 24.35 for a weekly gain of +5.9%.

Investors fell into a shopping frenzy as tensions increased between Russia and Ukraine. Was the purchase of precious metals as safe haven justified this time?
Our proprietary cycle indicator is UP. Gold sector is on long term SELL signal. GLD is on short term buy signal. GDX is on short term buy signal.
My outlook for the gold market in 2022 suffers from manic depression: I see first a period of despair and an elevated mood later. So, 2021 is over! 2022 will be better, right? Yeah, for sure! Just relax, what bad could happen?

At year end I was asked for predictions of what 2022 might see? My #1 prediction was that 2022 would see several narratives collapse. It did not take long to begin! Yesterday, Boris Johnson ended ALL Covid protocols in Britain and was followed by WHO backing off...
The precious metals still do pirouettes on the trading floor, but they can stumble in their choreography. The bears are just waiting for it.
The gold miners’ stocks surged back this week, blasting higher out of early-year weakness. Those big-and-fast gains were fueled by gold’s own, which shot up without any news catalyst. Seeing battered gold stocks showing signs of life has piqued traders’ interest,...
I am pretty confident that we are about to break the manipulation. Virtually every commodity has been going nuts to the upside up since March of last year, what possible reason has gold been stuck?
Intermediate decline in progress. I would even suggest that we are in the bloodbath phase, this is when you see selling panic hit from the traders. Perma-bears will come out and start making incorrect calls.
The Everything Bubble is bursting, and the Fed has barely even begun its war on inflation. Many top stocks are already in their own bear markets. Nvidia, way off its game, has lost 25% of its value from its last high score.

According to recently released data by the World Gold Council (WGC), as of September 2021, the total amount of gold held in reserves by central banks globally exceeded 36,000 tons for the first time since 1990. This 31-year record was the result of the world’s central...
As today’s (Thursday’s) market activity shows, the bubble is still in force as US stock markets/sectors generally remain intact (for the most part, with some notable exceptions outside of the headliners, as certain table legs get kicked out). But gold is in a beautiful...
The bi-polar US Dollar, like so many market forces of late, is exhibiting some odd behavior. In recent interviews and reports discussing the year ahead, I specifically cited the movements of the bi-polar US Dollar as one of the most critical market signals to watch.
Gold Newsletter editor Brien Lundin today calls attention to a new report by Myrmikan Capital's Dan Oliver about the gold price that would be necessary for U.S. gold reserves to back the dollar at levels that once were traditional:
