If anyone has the right to say “I told you so,” it’s Bill Gates. Two years ago, the co-founder, former CEO and now former board member of Microsoft urged governments to step up their preparedness in the event of a modern global pandemic. Such an event, Gates warned...

What a difference from a month ago, right? Miners moved overall higher – with volatile moves both ways, only to… truly plunge in March. Miners often lead gold higher and lower, so this decline doesn’t bode too well for the price of the yellow metal.

I got pelted with garbage after the last (bearish) update was posted on the 1st because right after, gold zoomed back up following a $75.80 plunge, as we can see on its latest 3-month chart below, and this “swansong rally” even made it to a marginal new high, but it...

On Sunday, the Federal Reserve cut interest rates and restarted quantitative easing to stimulate economy hit by the pandemic of COVID-19. That’s already its second move prior to this Wednesday’s FOMC. What does it imply for gold?

Just when you might think that the key action to comment on is Friday’s reversal, it’s the opening of today’s overnight session that gets the prize. The development is yet another Fed’s pre-FOMC move. This time, it coupled the rate cut to 0% with a $700bn QE. And...

What a wild week; I’m overwhelmed!  In my articles I usually find a narrative theme with which to insert my graphics in.  But this week the only theme that comes to mind is what an awful week it was – just awful.  Come to think of it, that’s actually a pretty good...

Our proprietary cycle indicator is down, now at the lowest level in years. Our ratio is on sell signal. Speculation is pulling back from the recent new high.

Below is a monthly chart of HUI telling some stories of the past. The 2003 to 2008 bull rally ended with Huey’s “crown of thorns” as I used to call it back then. An H&S that formed at the end of a great inflationary phase in the markets. The great crash of 2008...
