One cannot help getting the feeling that no matter where this goes the crisis in the Ukraine that has morphed into the Russian move into the Crimea cannot come to any good end. Frankly, I hope I am wrong but history has often shown that once events of this nature...

The desperation of the Anglo-American leadership, guided by the steady corrupt banker hands, has never been more acutely high, nor obvious in full view. The entire Ukraine situation is a travesty. It includes Langley agents killing police and street demonstrators...

Trading position (short-term): In our opinion no positions are justified from the risk/reward perspective.

The cleanest of the dirty shirts doesn’t necessarily preserve your purchasing power. Sure, the U.S. dollar has beaten the Russian Ruble and some others of late, but when it comes to real competition, the U.S. dollar has taken a back seat. The U.S. dollar’s long-term...

Since last August, the Indian government placed a stranglehold on gold imports into the country by requiring that 20% of all gold imported be exported as jewellery. This forced the amount of gold imported to drop to 30% of former levels until October of last year....

Now that the first leg off the bear market bottom has been completed the mining shares have been consolidating for the last three weeks in preparation for another leg up, and I expect the second leg will be almost as powerful as the first.

The buzz phrase at PDAC 2014 could be described as “cautious optimism.” Executives, analysts and investors seem to believe a corner has been turned but failed to show any excitement or hope beyond that. Some participants estimated that attendance was down 20% from...

Fever pitched political disputes and wars make for highly unpredictable environments and the flare- up in the Crimea certainly fits the bill. It has fuelled risk in the currency markets making USD and JPY look like safe bets for scared money.

Quantitative Easing (QE) is no longer a surprise, but the fact that it's continued for so long is. Like many Miller’s Money readers, I believe the government cannot continue to pay its bills by having the Federal Reserve buy debt with newly created money forever....

The Ukraine crisis may or may not be over. Regardless, the crisis has only resulted in a tiny increase in the holdings of GLD-NYSE, the largest gold ETF. Please view the latest tonnage holdings above. (The holdings are in the lower right hand corner). As gold has...

Below is a chart of the HUI H&S top that I was showing on another website , during its formation in 2008 and the crash that followed. Keep in mind the HUI had been rallying for 8 years without a topping formation so when I started to show the possibility of this...

Fundamentally, Gold should soon start the final 3rd phase of this long term bull market.

Since September 2011 gold has been consolidating in a traditional bear market correction. However, this Gold Bear is already too long in the tooth when compared to all Bear Markets since 1972. In the period 1972-2006 there have been 13 Gold Bear Markets. The...

If the market appeared ready for a correction last week, it looks even more so this week. If this happens, the best guesstimate for the near-term structure would be the completion of a larger corrective pattern (A-B-C) with the C wave of that structure about to...

“Economic growth” is a favorite topic of government economists; people who find signs of “growth” everywhere they look. But they base their public research from the beginning of the Obama administration, which corresponds with the bottom of the 2007-2009 credit...
