Already, a decline of 53 points followed by a .618 retracement suggests that the next move should be lower, with confirmation coming Monday.  Should the index extend its rally instead, it may necessitate a different interpretation of its behavior from the one...

The US economy and markets are now the BIGGEST BUBBLES in history.  In 2000, we experienced the Tech Bubble.  In 2008, we suffered both a Stock Market and Housing Bubble.  However, today…we are in the “EVERYTHING BUBBLE.”

Or as Bill the Bard of Avon might have queried, "Much Ado About Nothing?" Is the StateSide executive branch covertly concealing a felonious act? Or are players in the congressional/media complex destined to go down as the daftest deviants in decades? Either way,...

Wednesday saw a bit of action in the stock market.  The Dow Jones Index closed 1.78% (373 points) below Tuesday’s close.  People following the stock market tend to focus on the points.  Seeing the Dow Jones move down 373 points in a single session seems like a lot...

Stocks took a major hit on heavy volume selling early in the week, which forecasted more selling to come. But it didn’t come. Instead, we ripped back higher. Although we’re not yet out of the weakness woods, heavy volume on the move higher into the end of last week...

It has now been exactly 10 months since we established 2410 as the measured objective for the S&P 500. In forming a potential double top this week at 2405.77 I’d say we are close enough to call the target in (as we did in February when the first top was made on...

“Bon soir mes amis” We have reached the end of another week. And after a week of impulsive action in wave (c) brown, where each consecutive sub-wave has extended the price higher.

Both speculation and open interests are at levels of previous bottoms. Our proprietary cycle indicator is down slightly. Gold sector cycle is down.

The junior gold miners’ stocks suffered a serious thrashing between mid-April and early May.  Relentless heavy selling blasted many back down near deep mid-December lows, leaving sentiment in tatters.  But traders distracted by weak technicals need to keep their...

In the previous editions of the Market Overview, we wrote about the reflation trade. We analyzed the important signals of the uptick in economic activity and inflation all over the world, arguing that the upcoming reflation does not look encouraging for the gold...

In a warehouse a dozen miles to the northwest of Cardiff, the Royal Mint is running its machines through the night to keep up with demand for one of the big beneficiaries of the last year’s political turmoil – gold and silver bullion.

The coming GREAT DEFLATION will impact the value of Gold and the Dollar much differently than what most analysts are forecasting.  Unfortunately, most analysts do not understand the true underlying value of gold or the U.S. Dollar, because they base their forecasts...

There is a pattern forming on gold which wasn’t there yesterday. With yesterday’s big move up and no follow through to the upside today there is a potential H&S top building out. Many times I will use a neckline symmetry line which is taken from the neckline and...

Last year, the Federal Register—the U.S. government’s depository of rules and regulations—hit an all-time high of 81,640 pages. Among the industries that bear the greatest regulatory oversight is financials, which has seen a disproportionate amount of scrutiny in...

The financial markets have already “priced in” huge tax cuts, reducing red tape regulations and a massive increase in infrastructure spending. Perhaps, the markets are now believing that the agenda is not going to occur with Al Green asking for Trump impeachment?  ...

The operating paradigm has been relatively straightforward in the financial world that we live in.  The Federal Reserve (FED) sets monetary policy in terms of interest rates and new money creation, and does so in an attempt to influence the financial markets and...

Tech is the umbrella word for all things fashionable to invest in right now. Take the recent flotation of Snap Inc. (parent company of teen and narcissists’ favourite app SnapChat), everyone wanted in on the $20 billion flotation.

2016 was supposed to be the year that the Federal Reserve "normalized" its policies. As much as two years ago — after years of a near-zero target rate — the Fed was swearing that it would begin to raise rates back to "normal" levels and cut its balance sheet.

Gold prices rose for a fifth day to a two week high in early European trading on increasing US political risk pertaining to the Trump Presidency and the increasing risk of impeachment and a US political civil war.

Featured is a chart that compares the EURO to the US dollar.  When the trend is rising, it means the Euro is stronger than the US dollar and vice versa.  History tells us that gold has a tail wind when the trend here is upward bound, and a head-wind when the trend...

For the last five years, crude oil has been behaving a little differently than it has in the past. At least that’s the takeaway from the chart below, based on the Moore Research Center’s analysis of oil’s seasonal trading patterns. Note that the index on the left...

The $USD/Yen prop is now actively being pulled. For two weeks straight “somebody” was pinning stocks by ramping the $USD/ Yen pair. You can see the tight correlation between the two in the chart below.

Cyber wars are a bigger threat to humanity than nuclear weapons, the world’s richest and most famous investor Warren Buffett, presciently warned a few days ago.

May 15, 2017

Here at the outset, I want to share with you an interesting observation we made last week of gold’s seasonal trading pattern. As you can see in the chart below, based on data provided by Moore Research Center, the five-year pattern, represented by the orange line,...

Former Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke’s book titled “The Courage to Act” is now available in paperback. This isn’t a surprise because, after all, his proclivity to print paper encompasses the totality of what his courage to act was all about. The errors in logic made in...

On May 7, Marine Le Pen's defeat in France's presidential election secured an integrated EU and had many investors breathing a sigh of relief. Had the election gone her way, French workers could have seen the devaluation of their euro-denominated pensions if Le Pen...

–Cyberattacks expected to spread today in “second phase” –UK intelligence says scale of threat significant. –Microsoft slams NSA for letting hacking tools cause global malware epidemic. –Ransomware attack already crippled more than 200,000 computers in 150 countries...

Market Overview: “SPX is poised to reach the high of the B-wave, perhaps by making it to the 2410 alternate projection…” In fact, the high of the move came last Monday, falling short of 2410 by six points.  Whether or not this is the top of the B-wave remains to be...

Welcome to another weekend. The time is ticking by! And these price structures are developing slowly, but nicely all the same. Let’s dig into it! EURUSD has traced out a possible five waves to the downside this week. The price broke support at 1.0850 for a brief...

1231, 1211, 1190. Those are the three gold levels we offered a week ago as to how low price may go in its present down-flow. We'd already just eclipsed the 1231 level in settling last week at 1228. Then as the above panel shows in settling this week yesterday (...
