A strange week for markets having not really advanced, but importantly, have worked off their massive overbought reading. Leadings stocks are resting or consolidating a bit while some remain strong. The bottom line remains that we are in the thick of the nice run...

Since 1999 the gold price has moved in concert with the growth in the US Federal Reserve Balance Sheet…including the recent correction in both during the past three years. Accordingly, the following objective analysis will forecast the gold price out to 2016…based...

Long term – on major sell signal since Mar 2012 when $HUI was at 550. Short term – on new buy signals. Gold sector cycle – up as of 11/14. COT data suggests a major bottom is not in yet for the metals.

Until there is a clear break of elite’s central banking dominance over the gold and silver markets, there will be no dramatic recovery reflective of where the true price for both metals should be. Whether it is $5,000 or $10,000 for gold or $100 or $200 for silver...

Gold and gold miners have rebounded but remain in a technically weak position. Both markets have failed to move beyond the highs made last Friday. The same happened to the gold stocks in early October. They exploded higher one day but failed to muster anything after...

Gold and silver price manipulation, "we" have talked and written about it for years. I can still remember speaking two or three times a week with the late Harry Bingham back in 1997 and '98 regarding this topic. No matter what "event" popped up which logically and...
