The gold price in South African Rand (ZAR) is often a leading indicator for a USD gold price rally, as well as major trouble in the financial markets. A good example of this was around August/September 2001, just before the September 2001 crash (which turned out to...

The report covers, in detail, the technical status of US/Global stock markets, precious metals, commodities, currencies and even a few individual gold miners and a couple of new (non-gold related) NFTRH+ trade ideas.

There is (very) important support for the SPX between 2040 and 2043. It will have to be broken decisively in order for the index to resume its long-term downtrend. The last two challenges to it have been met successfully at 2040 and 2026. Will the third time, if...

Since January 20th the precious metal stocks have been in an upward impulse. I have classified this impulse as phase I of a new bull market. My essay “The three phases of a bull market” located on this site explains this in further detail.

During the years 2012 through 2015, the Gold Forces were essentially on wholesale retreat from much higher zones such as "The Northern Front" (1750-1800) and "on maneuvers..." (1579-1750), prior to falling through "The Floor" (1579-1466), et alia. But enter 2016 and...

Monday started to look good as gold seemed to rally…but in the end, nothing. For the week gold was a bummer. The technical indicators are still pointing to more weakness ahead but as yet the collapse has not yet been confirmed. I like to wait for confirmation to...

Gold sector is on a new major buy signal. The cycle indicator is down, suggesting a multi week correction is starting. Silver is on a long-term buy signal. Short-term is now on sell signal, caution is advised.

In May of 2008, there was a very similar stock market 'rally' as compared to today's 'rally'. Investors believed that the 'turmoil' during the latter part of 2007 and the early part of 2008 was permanently over -- and that we were headed towards a strong economic...

At the proverbial 11th hour, the globalists have a shut-out going for themselves with people unable to mount any meaningful opposition. While the word “hour” is referenced, the time could be measured in months, even a few more years. Whatever the duration is, the...

The gold stocks started to correct this week as large caps were off 13% at Thursday’s low. Both juniors and large caps have made tremendous gains since the January 19 bottom and are ripe for some profit taking. The Fed minutes provided the catalyst for such and we...

We've seen some very positive and encouraging market action in the metals this year with silver up close to 19% year-to-date, and gold up 18% as we're talking here on Thursday morning. Although, the precious metals are pulling back sharply this week. Assess the...

Gold Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are among the American Public’s most popular methods to hold, trade or speculate in gold. They were first offered in the 1990’s. The largest, SPDR Gold Shares, began in 2004. The early ETFs encountered significant resistance because...

The first reaction from the hard money camp would be to state we are insane or that we longer value hard money. Taking that line of thought would only set you on the wrong track; we are not against hard money or the Gold standard. However, most of those in the hard...

Yesterday the stock market and gold prices fell into their closing bells after the release of minutes of the Federal Reserve’s April meeting. The Federal Reserve did not raise interest rates at that meeting, but the minutes showed that some Federal Reserve Board...

One of the inspirations for our name, The Dollar Vigilante, was what used to be called the Bond Vigilantes. Last seen in full force in the inflationary early 1980s, bond vigilantes were anti-establishment figures who were said to have rebelled. They had decided to...

This past week, I read an article written by Mark O’Byrne which suggested that investors should fear the “bail-in.” Unfortunately, most do not really understand what happens during a “bail-in” scenario, so the fear regarding it seems to trump the benefits.

Somewhere back in the depths of time the world got the idea that easy money — that is, low interest rates and high levels of government spending — would produce sustainable growth with modest but positive inflation. And for a while it seemed to work.

This is a special preview of the KE Report Weekend Show. In this week's show, we feature a legend in the resource industry Rick Rule. This is a preview of the first of two segments where we get Rick's opinion of what is driving gold this year.

Thanks to High Frequency Trading and the rise of the machines in the electronic markets, gold and the S&P 500 Index are difficult for non-machines to understand and predict on a short term basis.

I expect one of two things to happen next, neither of them particularly bearish. Scenario #1 calls for June Gold to fall just a bit more, to the 1251.00 Hidden Pivot support shown, then rally sharply to a new record high at 1336.30. More likely in my estimation...

Smart investors have noted that the S&P500 just staged a very dangerous looking move. That move was when S&P 500’s 50-week moving average broke below its 100-week moving average. You can see this in the green circle below.

Very few precious metals investors realize how recent trend changes will greatly impact the gold market going forward. The reason many investors fail to grasp the huge change in the gold market is that they look at data or information on an individual basis. To...
