Unless President Trump reverses course, the “Lower Prices Bigger Paychecks” banner that hung behind him at his “affordability” speech this month will be remembered as being to economic policy what President George W. Bush’s “Mission Accomplished” banner was to foreign...
The expected reduction in the Fed funds target rate was announced today. The target rate was lowered to a range between 3.50-3.75%. The Fed also announced that it will begin purchasing about $40 billion per month of short-dated Treasury bills starting December 12.

Gold is pushing right back into the zone where optimism and exhaustion tend to collide. With higher-timeframe resistance directly overhead, today is all about whether buyers can finally break through or whether we set up for another reset. 
Both hawks and doves cite major rules to justify their stance. But the division inside the Fed isn’t dysfunction — it’s a sign of officials taking both mandates seriously.
Just one more push could exhaust a bull market that is coming up on its seventeenth year. Although that’s only about three dog years, it equates to about 120 human years.  In fact, no other bull market has lasted even remotely that long. The next-oldest, birthed at the...

As significant as silver’s recent advance has been, since 1969 it has underperformed gold by a large measure, as seen below.  But that wasn’t so during the 1969 to 1980 precious metals bull market, where at their January 1980’s peak, the gains in silver far...
The Federal Reserve announced another rate cut and another round of Quantitative Easing on Wednesday. The mainstream called this quarter-point reduction in interest rates “a hawkish cut.” We have to wonder if that’s akin to jumbo shrimp? Or government intelligence?
