Ukraine's military successes in the war with Russia had a negative impact on the dollar. At the same time, gold didn’t benefit as much as it could.

This week the Dow Jones lifted up a bit from its BEV -15% line, closing with a BEV of -12.63%.  What exactly does that mean?  In a BEV plot, all new all-time highs are reduced to a 0.00%, and never more at the Red BEV Zero (0.0%) line.  Any daily closing in the BEV...

An optionality play is a company that has a large amount of gold/silver in the ground that has never been developed into a mine. Ideally, you want to find large deposits that are highly undervalued compared to a company’s FD (fully diluted) market cap.

As Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell vows to keep fighting the high inflation he helped unleash, investors are also weighing evidence of a weakening jobs market. Gathering signs of a recession could cause the Fed to dial down future rate hikes.

Money is one of the most misunderstood topics of our time, and we’re seeing the implications of this play out every day. To understand money, one first must first understand that human beings have always been incentivized to participate in exchange. If humans could...

Last week's trading saw Gold forming its low in Wednesday's session, here doing so with the tag of the 1701.70 figure. From there, a decent rally was seen into late-week, with the metal pushing all the way up to a Friday high of 1740.50 - before backing off the same...

Mme. Lagarde & Co. just kicked the Buck in its butt, in turn giving Gold a bit of a  bid, but -- as Mark Twain might have penned -- "'Twarn't really much".  Gold settled out the week yesterday (Friday) at 1728, a price which has now  traded within six of the...

Our ratio is on a new buy signal. Trend is UP for the dollar, closing the week at a new high. Trend is DOWN for gold stocks, but resistance is broken this week. Trend is now UP for gold. Downside target achieved.

The best of times to come for gold (and gold miner) investors, if you’ve survived the worst of them.

Our SGJ newsletter portfolios are looking good.  We are loaded with cash (70% and more, in all our portfolios going into the current decline).  We're ready to deploy it now.  With the ECB turning “hawk”, the euro, gold, and silver are ready to soar!  The junior...

Gold continues to languish near major lows after a rough summer, deeply out of favor with traders.  Oddly this leading alternative investment seems oblivious to the first inflation super-spike since the 1970s.  That should be driving big gold demand, fueling a major...

Economic contraction is unfolding – but how painful will it be? The deeper the recession, the better for gold. Let’s make it clear: an economic downturn is coming. We are already in a technical recession (GDP contracted in the first two quarters of this year),...

Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) was the “Mumble Rap” of politics and economics in the late 2010s. The theory was incoherent, unsubstantial, and––before the pandemic, you could not avoid it if you wanted to.

There was some growth seen in gold and mining stocks that could make investors feel optimistic. Does this upward move change anything in the medium-term bearish perspective, though?

Gold’s fall after US Labor Day is not the only thing that happened in the precious metals market. Other events paint the near future in bearish colors.

Below we track how the Powell Fed serves as a contemporary weapon of mass destruction. Powell’s so-called “war against inflation” will fail, but not before crushing everything from risk asset, precious metal and currency pricing to the USD. As importantly, Powell is...

A bad run for gold and silver markets this summer is dimming hopes for the metals being able to finish out the year with some good gains. Major economic indicators have also been trending down this summer. Last week brought some disappointing jobs data.

The Federal Reserve was no doubt troubled by July’s decline in the US unemployment rate to 4.5 percent and increase in job openings to 11.2 million. This is because the Fed’s strategy for reducing the historic price inflation now plaguing the economy — caused by the...

Remember the quaint old days of 2019? We were told the US economy was in great shape. Inflation was low, jobs were plentiful, GDP was growing. And frankly, if covid had not come along, there is a pretty good chance Donald Trump would have been reelected.

A bunch of people are about to make the same mistake again, that they've made over and over and over. Instead of panicking people should have been buying at the bottom.

It was good while it lasted. But now the golden age of near-zero inflation and interest rates is over, and we are paying the price for living in a fool’s paradise since money is no longer free. All this is now changing.

While it’s impossible for sane citizens to get pleasure from an event like the de facto “annihilation of America”, it is possible for hardcore gold bugs to retain most of their sanity… and get richer… as such an annihilation occurs.
