Gold Editorials & Commentary

Stocks continue to hold up…but aren’t acting strong by any means. I remain in an all cash position as we may still be setting up for a try into new all-time highs in the S&P500, but at the same time, we may see some volume come in to push us lower in the week...

It has been my nature from the earliest point, I can remember that I have always looked for inspiration in the underdog. There is no logical reason for this, as my upbringing was about as “middle of the middle” as it could be. However, all the stories, movies, and...

Below is a long-term weekly chart we’ve been following which shows the breakouts and back-testing that have been going on for several months with GLD and SLV, and just 5 weeks or so for the HUI. This big picture look from 35,000 feet shows how infant this new bull...

Gold and silver ARE money. Neither is a “currency,” although money is often cited as interchangeable with currency. Take the Federal Reserve Note, [please!], as an example. A Federal Reserve Note [FRN], is more commonly known as a “dollar.” Even though the word “...

Gold sector is on a new major buy signal. The cycle indicator has just turned down this week, suggesting a multi week correction is starting. Silver is on a long term buy signal. Short term is on buy signal, but caution is advised to those who are chasing this...

There has been a lot of talk about how gold is not a good inflation hedge. Indeed, with the recent bounce in inflation expectations, this was shown to be true over a short timeframe, at least in relation to silver and other commodities. Gold sagged while the more...

Nearly two months ago I published a video in which I discussed conventional CoT analysis and the mistake many investors might make assuming Gold and gold stocks would undergo a big correction. The fact is a bull market that follows a nasty bear usually stays very...

The gold-mining stocks have skyrocketed this year, radically outperforming every other sector. Smart contrarians who bought them low late last year and in January have seen their capital doubled, tripled, and even quadrupled! But such blistering gains raise the...

This is a special preview of the KE Report Weekend Show. President of The Commodity of Monetary Research and Education (CMRE) and founder of Myrmikan Capital based in New York, Dan Oliver kicks off the KE Report Weekend Show.

Buy gold and ‘get out of the stock market,’ legendary billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller, advised investors this week at an investment conference in New York.

The specter of government forcefully confiscating gold is still roaming around out there. That nagging prospect dampens many buying decisions, unfortunate at a time when gold, and especially silver, are near historically bargain basement prices when measured in fiat...

On Tuesday night, Ted Cruz suspended his campaign. The reason was Trump’s spectacular victory in Indiana. The billionaire took all 57 delegates. On Wednesday, John Kasich also decided to end his GOP presidential run. The truth is that he never had any chances to win...

I was sent an interesting note by Armstrong this morning about his perspective on quantitative easing. In it, he addresses how Bill Gross is wrong about QE. While his ultimate point is correct, his underlying analysis is wrong:

Europe has banned the use of €500 bills. The reason? They claim these bills are used in money laundering and for drugs. And if you believe that is the concern, you probably believe the earth is flat.

On Tuesday, the European Commission cut the forecast for GDP growth in the Eurozone this year, despite surprisingly strong growth in the first quarter. The economy of the 19 countries sharing the euro is expected to rise just 1.6 percent in 2016, down from 1.7...

The coming ‘sharia gold standard’ or shariah compliant gold could lead to a very significant source of new demand for physical gold coins and bars in the Islamic world. It is believed that this will contribute to much higher prices and gold “soaring” as some of the...

Liquefaction: … 3: conversion of soil into a fluidlike mass during an earthquake or other seismic event, 4: inability of flooded capital markets to absorb additional capital without destabilizing paper assets, e.g. stocks, bonds, currencies, etc., 5. a monetary...

These charts tell the story how the mining shares and metals’ market have the forward momentum of thoroughbred Secretariat as he clinched the Triple Crown of US Horse Racing.

Okay, okay, we have heard it before: This market should crash, everything is fake, etc etc. We are as we have spoken many times over the past two years in a new paradigm. Reality is being recreated; this entire economic recovery is a hoax.

What has been going on since mid-February is a burst of the ‘inflation trade’ as evidenced by silver’s leadership in the precious metals sector. This opened the barn door for all kinds of inflated animals to flee into the light of day, and for commodity and...

I never suggest trading on emotion, yet the “fears” I expressed last week may be developing as the reality on the ground. With the continued strength this past week seen in the miners, one has to question whether the more immediately bullish “green count” is what...

Gold reached a high of 1303.90 in the oTechnical Analysis Of The Markets vernight session at the time that this Post was being written. At the moment we are working on the assumption that we are still in our wave ^v^ of *iii* thrust. The current high for this wave...

Gold and related assets continue to stun most analysts and investors as they surge relentlessly higher against American fiat currency.

A friend sent me some comments from Chris Powell over at GATA (headquarters for the gold manipulation crowd) writing about the possibility of a change in the thinking of the Central Banks in regards to the gold price.

The bears have been in charge for the last four years or so, taking both gold and silver into the depths of despair. The associated mining companies also felt the cold with many having to postpone projects, slash dividends and implement a series of cost cutting...

Ever since the US Federal Reserve (Fed) began to consider raising the federal funds rate, which it eventually did in December 2015, a cottage industry has grown up around taper talk. Will the Fed raise rates, or won’t it? Each time a consensus congeals around the...

So far this year, 46 companies across the world have defaulted on their debt (worth $50 billion), the highest number since the recent financial crisis, according to a study by credit rating agency Standard & Poor’s.

This is an excerpt of the weekend update sent to subscribers on Sunday. The focus on this portion is the US Dollar Index which will largely determine the direction of silver and gold in the years ahead.

Gold should drop about $150 from here into May 18th or about 12-13%. Gold mining shares should drop about 35-38% from here into May 18th. Mercury turned stationary/retrograde on April 28th, suggesting a major top +/- 2 trading days from that date. The Gann cycles...

In last week’s musing, I documented the history of gold, silver and the US dollar from the establishment of a national monetary system in 1792 until abandonment of the gold standard in 1971.
