There are quite a number of ‘standard’ chart patterns that have been recognised as such since the early years of Technical Analysis -- and there are probably no TA practitioners who do not accept their existence and with near consensus on how the patterns should be...

Markets didn’t do much this past week until the Federal Reserve failed to raise rates. Consequently, we saw stocks rise and fall and rise and fall until Friday…when they just fell late Friday.
SPX looks as if it made a classic counter-trend rally top on Thursday -- and confirmed the reversal with additional weakness on Friday. I still believe that whatever corrective pattern it made, it was the mid-point of a measured move which, if it is completely...
Long time readers of The Gold Update know that our microphones are just about everywhere, the latest instance being at Mission Control in Houston this past Thursday in concert with the Federal Open Market Committee's policy decision as regards the Federal Reserve Bank'...
Janet Yellen may not have raised interest rates this week, but Mr Bear couldn’t care less. We can see it in the market. In bull markets double-digit declines from an all-time high are reasons to buy. But EARLY in bear markets, recoveries from double digit declines...
The market didn’t waste any time “getting on with it” yesterday after the bearish action on the day of the Fed announcement. It fell, and hard. We are going to look at this carefully because what appears to be starting is a devastating “end run around the line” smash...

Last week, I predicted an important top for September 17 based on astrology. While I thought it would be a lower top, nonetheless, it was an important top caused by the FED: and as predicted, I said that they would not raise rates, but they did place something in the...
To almost all Americans mentioning Ufa will bring a blank response. What is Ufa? None would ask, “Where is it?” for there has been no mention of it anywhere in the mainstream media. Does Ufa matter? Yes, but in this country it does not.
Gold sector is on major sell signal. Cycle is up. Looking for a tradable bounce lasting a few weeks.Silver is on a long term sell signal and investors should be in cash or short. Short term is on buy signal and traders can play for a corrective bounce.

Gold and silver prices both rallied today after the FED decided to leave interest rates unchanged. The rally faded into the late afternoon, but gold still ended up $15 or 1.2% and silver climbed $0.25 or 1.6%. They ended the day at $1,130 and $15.11, respectively.
As we know, Gold and gold mining stocks have been trapped in a bear market that has been severe in both price and duration. It is seemingly a “forever” bear market as rebounds and recoveries have been followed by lower prices and more devastation.
Every dictator knows that a continuous state of emergency is the best means to justify tyrannical policies. The trick is to keep the fictitious emergency from breeding so much paranoia that routine activities come to a halt. Many have discovered that it’s best to make...
The overleveraging of the U.S. federal, state, and local governments, some corporations, and consumers is well known. This has long been the case, and most people are bored by the topic. If debt is a problem, it has been manageable for so long that it no longer seems...
From its headquarters at York Factory on Hudson Bay, the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) controlled the fur trade throughout much of North America for several centuries. Gold discoveries were not reported – it was good policy (as we shall see), on the part of Hudson’s Bay,...
Yesterday's article "Is YOUR 'pool' full?" drew many responses and much to my surprise a reply from Bron Suchecki himself! I must say, even though I disagree with some of his writings, Mr. Suchecki is a class act and true gentleman.
Yesterday’s Fed decision was one of the most anticipated ever, with much potential to really change the global financial-market dynamics going forward. But thanks to the Fed’s incredible market distortions of recent years, Fed meetings spawning exceptional volatility...
Demand for physical gold and silver in August and September has been exceptionally strong as investors seek a safe-haven from market turmoil, as the global economy slows down and as it becomes clear that the Federal Reserve and central banks generally are slowly losing...
New York closed yesterday with the gold price at $1,119.70 up from $1,105.50. Gold then rose in Asia to $1,121.00. In the euro this was €991.16 up €11.11. This morning the dollar index started the day at 95.26, slightly lower than the 95.59 of yesterday.
Commodities and Emerging Markets have been crushed over the past 15 months by the dollar’s strong rally. It therefore follows that if the dollar starts down again, they are going to rally, and this will happen regardless of the state of economies.
The Federal Reserve guessing game ended Thursday after the FOMC made its decision on interest rate policy. The Fed left rates unchanged in a tip of the hat to investors who felt the economy was vulnerable to overseas weakness. This was what most on Wall Street wanted...

We think we know that gold is no longer money, because Keynesians and monetarists insist it is so. Furthermore, it has been replaced by government currencies, which we use to buy and sell, do our accounts and pay our taxes. While it is undoubtedly true that gold is no...
Given the emerging realisation that the Chinese Emperor has no clothes, and given the lacklustre performance of the Japanese, French and UK markets, and given that Germany’s economy is heavily dependent on exports, where will the growth come from?
Gold rose 1.3% yesterday ahead of the Federal Reserve interest rate announcement today. Markets remain divided and uncertain whether the Fed will increase rates by 25 basis points today (1900 GMT).
A long time ago a friend need help cleaning a kitchen after a pressure cooker had exploded. Apart from a large hole in the ceiling and some broken things all over, it was necessary to clean practically every square inch of every surface, walls and the ceiling included...
Here at TDV, we’ve covered Shemitah and the Shemitah end-day extensively. Without rehashing past analysis, we can certainly speculate that Thursday’s Federal Reserve decision could have an explosive impact on markets worldwide. Call it a Shemitah Trend.

For about the last year and a half I’ve been warning that gold was being driven down to test the last C-wave top ($1033). No one believed me. Now that the test has occurred it’s time to go the other way. Again no one believes me.
Most gold owners are familiar with worries of forced government gold confiscation – that one day black-ops shock teams will toss homes to find that stash of coins and bars.
Yesterday was a very interesting day, first my mailbox was jammed with readers saying "did you see what Bron Suchecki had to say about you"? Then a second wave of e-mails came through asking if I had seen the article Kitco put out regarding COMEX inventories?
Recently I spoke with Jim Rogers about the most important investment lessons he has learned over the years. Jim is a legendary investor and true international man. He’s always ahead of the game. Jim made a bundle by investing in commodities in the 1990s when they were...
Will she raise or will she not? As financial markets focus on whether we will see a Fed rate hike this week, investors may be in for a rude awakening.
