Monday's market reaction was dramatic. After threatening over the weekend to "obliterate" Iran's power plants if the Strait of Hormuz wasn't reopened within 48 hours, President Trump posted on Truth Social that the U.S. and Iran have had "very good and productive...
Markets rise and fall. Some are of higher quality than others. Some offer more potential reward (and more risk). In the case of global fiats, these low-quality items were overdue for a temporary rally against supreme money gold. They rallied… and they can now be sold.
If you are new to gold, or if you are a speculator in gold (or even worse, a levered speculator in gold), you are likely asking yourselves what in the “H. E. double tooth-picks” just happened to gold? It lost over 9% in the futures market in a single session and saw...
Gold miners are facing pressure from lower gold prices and rising diesel costs, which account for 15–20% of cash expenses. Producers set 2026 cost assumptions around $70 per barrel oil, but prices have moved higher.
According to much popular economics, the current monetary system amplifies the initial monetary injections of money. Thus, if the central bank injects $1 billion into the economy, and banks hold 10 percent in reserves against deposits, this will allow the first bank to...

This is just an intermediate term correction in gold and the gold stocks and probably a little bit more in silver. I'll talk about it and tell you why precious metals are extremely close to a short-term rebound in this video.

I thought my subscribers might have been, so I posted an early Gold Trading Alert today. This article is based on it. I’ll leave out the details on gold, silver, mining stocks, and copper, but I’ll tell you about the markets that likely triggered the moves in the PMs....
Spot gold closed Friday in New York at $4490 and spot silver closed at $67.69. Both prices were new closing lows for the two metals.
It wasn't the best week for the gold and silver prices, as they got absolutely clobbered, and continued the third week of a sell-off that started back when the Iran war began.

Two successful professionals—one a semi-retired entrepreneur, the other a top attorney—both had the intelligence and capital to manage their own investments. Yet both watched their portfolios suffer devastating losses, despite doing everything conventional wisdom told them to do...

With the action seen over the past week or so, the downward phase of the 34-day cycle was confirmed to be back in force - with the same now seen as true for the bigger 72-day component. With that, the next decent swing low should come from the combination of these...
Since the big selloff in January, gold has generally traded in a range between $4,600 and $5,200 an ounce. It got a little bump when the U.S. began military operations in Iran, but has since fallen to the lower end of that range, and even just below it here today.
We’ve felt a bit of a lone wolf year-to-date in duly citing Gold’s overbought state.  However of late, the mighty metal’s market participants have finally been grasping Gold’s dire strait.  For en route to settling  the week yesterday (Friday) at 4492, price from its ...

Gold sector cycle is DOWN. Trend is up for USD and down for gold & gold stocks. Correction in progress.
The precious metals market dipped a bit today and the USD Index rallied, but I stand by my yesterday’s analysis: Profitable Bloodbath - Change in Positions. A corrective rally (lasting between a few days and two weeks) in the precious metals market is likely in my view...

Back in January we (NFTRH) targeted the PDAC time frame (1st week of March) for a much needed correction of the excesses to begin. Gold stocks, along with gold and silver were due for a beat down after all that 2025 bullishness and market leadership.
The Fed struck a moderately hawkish tone, emphasizing uncertainty, which is likely to limit the odds of rate cuts in 2026. The recent breakdown in precious metals and mining stocks feels like the final washout heading into an intermediate low.
If you know inflation is going to increase, would you sell your inflation hedge? Me neither. That would be dumb, right? However, that’s what a lot of people did yesterday (Wednesday, March 18), and they're still doing it this morning. This hints at the Catch-22 still...
The latest episode of the Money Metals Midweek Memo, hosted by Mike Maharrey, explores a growing shift in global markets. Traditional safe havens are no longer behaving as expected. In their place, gold is emerging as the primary refuge during economic and geopolitical...
Previously it appears there were two major potential influences that could cause future valuations of gold mining stocks to decline: Gold price declining, Stock market declining. A third influence has appeared:
The price of oil surged today as the footage from the Iran war gets uglier and uglier, yet somehow gold's down $300, and silver was down as much as $8 today as well?!

Given what’s going on in the world, it’s truly remarkable that the US stock markets have held up as well as they have, but it’s not easy slaying a multi-year bull. Now, however, as we look at the 1-year chart for the S&P500 index shown further down the page, we see...
After President Trump decided to join with the Israeli government to launch this new war on Iran, establishment Democrats have struggled to find an angle to attack the president’s decision.

Another and perhaps final re-test of the neck level of the head-and-shoulders pattern in the GDXJ is already behind us.
You just knew that is was going to happen; that the bombing of Iran and subsequent Iranian actions were going to drive up the oil price. That is rising prices in one commodity, and other affected commodities and materials like LNG and Fertilizer. It is not inflation.
Stagflation is an economic event in which the inflation rate is high, economic growth rate slows, and unemployment remains steadily high.
Inflation ticked down in January, the latest data released Friday from the Bureau of Economic Analysis shows. But it still remains well above the Federal Reserve’s target.
I would like to go over some charts to show how the PM complex may have completed an intermediate top that maybe the start of a large consolidation pattern I’ve been mentioning is possible. After a strong bull market rally, we need to see a reversal pattern form to...
Despite gold’s sideways performance in recent weeks, UBS still expects gold to gain 20 percent from its current price this year.

If you want some gold, today might be a good day to hunt for a leprechaun, it being St. Patrick’s Day and all. I’ve heard these little creatures have an affinity for gold, and if you catch one, it might reveal its whereabouts in return for its freedom.
According to mainstream media, the dollar is rallying. The media claims that the dollar is rallying because of the surge in the price of oil. Are they correct?
