April CPI came in hot this morning. Headline: 3.8% year-over-year, above the 3.7% consensus. Core: 2.8%, above the 2.7% consensus. Both beat expectations. Oil is back above $100. Gold is falling. Silver is falling after yesterday's 5%+ surge. The dollar is firming.

High gold prices are enduring, with the yellow metal consolidating high again. Gold’s durability way up here is remarkable considering the sheer extremity of January’s parabolic surge. Yet this is the fifth time gold has defied serious-drawdown odds in recent years...
Gold has an inverse relationship with US Treasury yields. As yields rise, gold normally falls, as interest-bearing assets become more attractive compared to gold, which offers neither interest nor a dividend.
I seriously had no clue that SPX was even close to target, let alone realized it had hit the 7400 measured target yesterday, until I took a look yesterday afternoon. Though upside targets are seldom stop signs (at least mine aren’t, they are objectives laid out well...

I believe this 20% correction in the price of gold was only to be expected, in fact overdue. Don’t believe me. Take a moment to study gold’s BEV chart going back to 1999, how the other advances, as seen in clusters of BEV Zeros above, all saw deeper corrections in...
After going negative in March after the outbreak of hostilities between the U.S. and Iran, flows of gold into ETFs flipped positive again in April, with all regions reporting inflows of metal.
The lower Gold levels we’d anticipated two weeks ago (price having dropped from our 25 April penning at 4725 by as much as -4.6% to 4510 this past Monday) clearly panned out.

Gold demand was up 2 percent year-on-year in the first quarter, setting a record in value terms. Including over-the-counter (OTC) selling, gold demand came in at 1,231 tonnes. Volume growth, coupled with the surging gold price, drove a 74 percent jump in the value of...
Government red tape is creating havoc in India’s gold market. For the last five weeks, gold imports have virtually stopped. According to the Economic Times of India, this is pushing domestic gold prices higher and threatening shortages in the world’s second-largest...

The market is starting to reveal where its real strength - and real weakness - actually sits. After several sessions filled with failed breakdowns, reclaimed gaps, and aggressive counterattacks from both sides, the metals market is entering a much more technical phase...
US public debt has reached 100 percent of GDP (gross domestic product) for the first time since the aftermath of World War II. Just because we have been here before, and we managed, doesn’t mean we will do so again. This time is different in important ways that are...

How long can the current narrative persist… the bizarre narrative that a massive global fertilizer and fuel supply shock means citizens need to get rid of their gold because America’s fiat Fed is supposedly “big and strong”?
