Gold Editorials & Commentary

The buzz word of Central Bank Chiefs at Jackson Hole was INFLATION: “The Fed to tolerate higher inflation” says Powell, “ECB to inject more monetary stimulus to ensure inflation” says ECB Chief Economist, “Bank of England has ample fire power to support UK economy...

In a sure sign that the times have changed, the scam of "Exchanges For Physical" that The Bullion Banks have utilized for several years as a risk-free profit method appears to have finally collapsed.

This week, the financial community around the globe was handed a "new approach" by the Federal Reserve Board of the United States that essentially flipped the middle finger at savers, senior citizens on limited pensions and proponents of sound money principles....

Public and private pension plans face a dual crisis. The first and most obvious threat to pensioners is that defined-benefit vehicles are severely underfunded. By one estimate, pension systems taken as a whole are $638 billion in the red.

Fed adopts a new strategy that opens the door for higher inflation. The change is fundamentally positive for gold prices. So, it happened! In line with market expectations, the Fed has changed its monetary policy framework into a more dovish one! This is something...

Back in February 2019, I gave a brief lesson on a bit of charting magic known as a “rainbow convergence”.  T-Bond prices this month have given us another great opportunity to examine this topic.

Early signs are that the current mega-intervention in the PM markets, a repeat of April 2013 and March this year, has started to taper off despite probably not (yet?) having delivered the hoped for results. There was no large and sustained closing of long positions...

SPX has held steadily above its 60m chart trend line ever since it started its uptrend from 3350.  DJIA and QQQ have held above similar trend lines as well.  It stands to reason that a break of these trend lines would start corrections in all three indices, perhaps...

Last week's trading saw Gold holding weaker into mid-week, with the metal forming its low in Wednesday's session with the tag of the 1908.40 figure. From there, however, a sharp rally was seen into Thursday, here pushing all the way up to a high of 1987.00 - before...

The Dow Jones Index closed the week in scoring position; that is within 5% of its last all-time high in its BEV chart below.  Closing this gap, and once again making new BEV Zeros in the BEV chart below is almost a guarantee in the weeks to come, maybe by next...

'Tis a Big "BUT" not subtle in our title's rebuttal. And our rationalized scuttlebutt? Across the week just past wherein Gold settled yesterday (Friday) at 1973, after being in a rut as low as 1908 (on Wednesday), two key near-term technical indicators nonetheless...

Long-term – on major buy signal. Short-term – on sell signals. Gold sector cycle is down, a consolidation is in progress. *** We are now hedged, locking in 130% profit on our core position, and 20% on our short term positions.

Even though we had published timely warnings, the recent pullback and increased volatility in the precious metals sector have caught many traders and investors off guard. While central bankers keep printing money like crazy, prices for gold and silver have pulled...

Dow Theory suggests indices must confirm each other and volume must confirm the trend. The new downward trend in the Dow Utilities Index suggests indices are starting to break apart in terms of trending in unison. Volume recently has been trailing lower, which...

Here are today's videos and charts. The videos are viewable on mobile phones as well as computers.

As the Federal Reserve embarks on a new campaign to raise inflation rates, markets may be in for a change in character. On Wednesday, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell announced that the central bank would be targeting an inflation “average” of 2%. By the Fed’s measures,...

Those in favor of Judy Shelton’s approval by Congress, pursuant to her nomination to the Federal Reserve Board Of Governors, should not be surprised by the torrent of criticism directed at her.

I know many of you view the Fed as quite omnipotent, with the ability to move the market with a simple stroke of a key. In fact, this perspective is so ubiquitous that I know almost none of you will take my presentation seriously, as “common-think” has taken over...

The epidemiological outlook improves, while the U.S. stock market reaches one record high after another. But the key question today for the gold investors is: what will Powell say?

Gold's retreated from a record high above $2,000, and silver's off its own seven-year highs near $30. Is that cause for concern? I doubt it.

“Ground control to Major Tom … Your circuit is dead, there’s something wrong. Can you hear me Tom. Can you here me Tom”….Tom: “I am floating around in my tin can and there is nothing I can do.” (David Bowie)

Quietly, as we've been focused on Gold, Silver, and other symbols, Natural Gas has rallied above the $2.00 level and is starting to break higher again targeting the $2.95 level.  The very deep “rounded bottom” pattern that set up in early 2020 presented a very real...

The “KISS (Keep it simple, superstar!)” investing principle is important, especially in the gold market. Business owners and stakeholders don’t have a lot of time to be deciphering candlesticks on a gold chart, but there are some easy rules of thumb that can help....

I want to try to answer a subscriber’s question as clearly as I can because it really does seem to be more confusing than it actually is. It’s always made sense to me but I understand there is a promotion machine out there selling viewpoints and in the gold sector...

July FOMC minutes hit the gold prices. But what’s next for the yellow metal? The key event last week was the publication of the minutes from the FOMC meeting in July. After their release, the U.S. dollar jumped, while the price of gold dropped, as the chart below...

For those that do not know what FOMO is, it stands for Fear Of Missing Out, which is what has now gripped our market. And I find that absolutely fascinating.

I’ve been posting exclusively for the last 2 months on the PM complex as I know that is most of our members main focus. Since the PM complex is now in consolidation mode I would like to take this time to show you the other bull market that has been taking place in...

We are at the end of the fiat debt-based monetary system. It is becoming clear that the system is in collapse due to the enormous debt load. The thing (debt) that it needs to try and survive another while, is the very thing (debt) that is busy collapsing the system...

Gold bugs may finally be taking their summer (stay)vacation. After months of frenetic activity in the bullion markets, physical buying and selling slowed a bit last week.

For those who expect gold to keep going up nonstop the past few weeks have been disappointing, but for more experienced investors and traders who like to “keep one foot on the ground” the pullback of the past few weeks across the sector is a blessing – let me...
