Gold Editorials & Commentary

In 2022 the gold price has started to validate our projection from last December, and 2023 should see a bull move in gold miners emerge for all to see (and one day chase due to FOMO)

Since the gold market now shows parallels to 2008 and 2013, what can we expect if the correction has just ended?

Below are my comments and answers to various questions about gold, inflation, and the Federal Reserve. They are “for the record” so to speak, and are meant to be taken literally and specifically…

2022 has been a difficult year for financial assets with the traditional 60/40 portfolio suffering one of its worst annual performances on record. This has many investors asking whether the damage done means stocks and bonds now offer an attractive buying...

Gold and silver sold off sharply for much of the summer as the Fed was aggressively raising interest rates. Yet the metals have reversed that trend and rallied while the Fed has kept hiking, suggesting that the equation is not as straightforward as assuming that...

Below, we consider a blender of history, simple math, sober facts and comical arrogance to better understand gold’s loyalty in a time of disloyal financial stewardship.

The yield on the 10-year bond recently fell below the rate paid by the Fed on bank reserves. That is, a bank gets paid more to lend to the Fed for a day than to lend to the Treasury for ten years. There is not merely an inversion between the 2-year and the 10-year...

The 2021-2025 war cycle requires investors to focus their attention on the US dollar and gold. The disturbing USDX chart. The chart looks terrible… and the fundamentals look worse.

Something major happened to the USD/JPY (yen), and it triggered a sizable overnight rally in gold and silver. What’s really going on?

The economic downturn is gathering pace. The flash US PMI Composite Output Index came at 44.6 in December, down from 46.4 in November. It was the sharpest decline in business activity since May 2020 or, excluding the initial pandemic period, since the Great...

Investors are on the edge of their seats for any sign that Fed central planners will someday “pivot” to cutting interest rates, instead of raising them. They forget that recessions and major stock bear markets have occurred after the Fed started cutting rates and...

Q: Where do you expect gold and silver prices to go in the months ahead? A: The truth, of course, is we don't know. If the futures markets worked properly as a vehicle for honest price discovery and responded as expected to fundamentals like supply and demand,...

The best performing precious metal for the week was gold, but still off 0.45%. GoGold Resources finished the week up over 20% with new holes released from the El Favor East deposit within the Los Ricos North Property. Hole LRGF-22-140 intersected 0.7 meters of 2,529...

Yet another week of head scratching was seen in the market this past week. The CPI came in lower than the prior report, and the market rallied strongly through the lower resistance region I outlined last weekend. And, it made most people uber-bullish, believing we ...

The precious metals sector didn’t do much on Friday, but something very important happened in gold’s key driver – the USD Index. Let’s get right to it.

The modest bear market rally begun in October likely ended last week when stocks turned sharply lower after failing to achieve clear 'Hidden Pivot' rally targets. Now, if the selling should continue to exceed minor abcd targets as occurred last week, that would...

I’ve pointed out in past years how badly cooked the government’s jobs numbers are and how the Bureau of Lying Statistics, as I call it, revises its numbers down by hundreds of thousands in an annual audit just about every year, but mostly by applying the corrections...

Brien Lundin, Publisher and Editor of GoldNewsletter.com, returns to the show to discuss two key factors impacting the health of the economy: inflation and the strength of the dollar. We'll also discuss interest rates, the DXY, and the Gold and silver outlook for...

The Federal Reserve held its latest policy meeting on Wednesday, where it raised interest rates by 50 basis points, but also left a lot unsaid in its policy statement.

As mentioned in past articles, the last mid-term low for Gold was expected to come from our 72 and 310-day cycles - and was due to materialize around the mid-to-late October timeframe, but with a decent plus or minus variance in either direction. That low came and...

While many market participants are concerned about rate increases, they appear to be ignoring the largest risk: the potential for a massive liquidity drain in 2023.

Six weeks have passed since Gold's weekly parabolic trend flipped from Short to Long (at 1745 on 10 November). And based on the prior ten Long trend follow-through by points, we've herein been remindful throughout that 1900 is possible on this run, whilst duly...

As investors hope for a Santa Claus rally in the days ahead, the Grinch is looking to steal their holiday cheer. Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell announced another interest rate hike on Wednesday – this time by half a percentage point. Although the bump up in...

A couple of weeks ago, the Dow Jones broke above its highs of last August. It was looking really good – a few weeks ago. Now a week before Christmas it appears Mr Bear has the bulls running the wrong way, with the Dow Jones closing below its BEV -10% line.

Energy and gold are both acting well. Here are today's videos and charts.

The cornerstones in my Inflation/Deflation and Economic Cycle Model are changes made to fiscal and monetary policies. Those are the two most determinant factors in any fiat-currency and debt-based monetary system.

Our proprietary cycle indicator is UP. Gold sector is on long term SELL signal. GLD is on short term sell signal. GDX is on short term sell signal. XGD.to is on short term sell signal. GDXJ is on short term sell signal.

Gold defied another hawkish Fed decision this week, consolidating high in its immediate wake.  That was an impressive show of strength, after this extreme Fed tightening cycle hammered gold for a half-year or so.  That strong performance reflects gold-futures...

The Federal Reserve's Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) on Wednesday announced it will raise the target federal funds rate by 50 basis points, bringing the target rate to 4.5 percent. Wednesday's rate hike followed four hikes in a row of 75 basis points, and is...

Real Interest rates are the key driver for precious metals. Specifically, declining real interest rates and negative real interest rates drive precious metals higher.
