There’s much to discuss, starting with the “powers that be” utter desperation – particularly, the gold Cartel – to stave off “Economic Mother Nature” and the “unstoppable tsunami of reality” as the end game plays out right of its eyes. For example, just two days...

This graph by 720Global shows how spot on my pronouncement of a US 2016 recession is -- and how precarious the path ahead. In spite of the lack of any official declaration by the US government or its economic priesthood, I’ve stated more than once in 2016 that the...

We currently have record short gold positions (300k) on the COMEX, held by the commercials (read bullion banks), because they want to force gold and silver prices lower. As a result of the massive short positions, we are also witnessing record open interest...

In Elliott Wave parlance, 3rd waves are the segment of a trend move which provides the strongest market action. This is why we are always on the “lookout” for the set-ups for 3rd waves. Whereas silver has already seen the heart of a 3rd several weeks ago, we now may...

After years of buying based on progressively lower metal prices, bullion investors find themselves facing a dynamic that has been missing for a while: higher prices. That leaves them in a bit of a quandary -- and many are sitting on their hands.

For the Western gold community, the main theme for 2016 continues to be: “Let the good times roll!” GDX just raced to yet another new high for the year. My next target prices are $33 and $37. Technically, the situation is superb. There’s a momentum-style buy signal...

Now that the two major party conventions (RNC, DNC) are over, there will be heated debates and discussion as who will be our next president. We found one presidential election predictor is rather impressive in forecasting its results, as shown in the following...

The mainstream news sources seem determined to ignore the extent of the global slowdown in trade. Whether exports, imports, industrial production or whatever your preferred metric, the facts are undeniable. Nevertheless, the mainstream media chooses to refuse to...
