Financially speaking, the markets have been all over the map in the past four years since the onset of Covid and the self-inflicted wounds from forced economic shutdown. I went back to August 2020, five months after the festivities began,  and pulled up some charts...

Factoring in sizeable over-the-counter (OTC) buying, gold demand charted its strongest first quarter since 2016. Excluding OTC buying, demand fell 5 percent to 1,102 tons. Significant outflows of gold from ETFs drove the dip. But including over-the-counter buying by...

While I do not necessarily agree with the writer’s assertion that mining costs are likely to keep rising, short/intermediate-term, the writer has got the theory right. Gold mining leverage to gold will be positive when gold is either rising faster than costs. But it...

Some of you may remember Gary Liebowitz, a troll that I 86’d from the site years ago. He still harangues me now and then, and I am saddened to report that his rage has only worsened, especially where Trump is concerned. Here’s a pungent note from Gary that just...

Now that we've finally seen a correction following a torrid 2 month rally in the gold and silver market, Vince Lanci explains how the battle around $2300 in gold is starting now.

Gold, Silver and the miners declined this week but all remained above key support levels. Silver retested support at $26.30 and formed a bullish hammer today. Gold & gold stocks could decline more and test their support levels.
