Gold had a really big up day on Friday and the central question for investors in gold silver and Precious Metals stocks is whether this was just a “flash in the pan” move that will not lead to anything significant or whether it marks the start of a much larger move...

The 2021-2025 war cycle is intensifying with a new war involving Gaza and Israel. Will it push gold to record highs? Yes, it could, but other key drivers like US rates and Asian physical demand need to be supportive for any gold price rally to have barnburner...

The situation in the Middle East is getting worse, and we’re likely moments away from a full-blown military operation. What’s gold likely to do? In short, gold is likely to rally, but that is not the full or most useful reply.
The reshaping of the world economy and the global (political) order is in full swing. It is a long process, the concrete outcome of which is uncertain in advance and associated with numerous imponderables.
Finally, a rally in gold that looks capable of leaving the $2000 barrier in the dust! This one is being pushed not only by the threat of escalated conflict in the Middle East, but by the dawning realization that a strong dollar and rising interest rates are about to...

With the action seen into last week, Gold has turned sharply back to the upside - with the metal having been anticipated to form a low into the 'kill zone' turn, which was identified in our Gold Wave Trader report as the October 9th date, plus or minus.
Now before we all get too excited out there about Gold having yesterday (Friday) posted its largest one-day net gain since 17 March by both percentage +3.4% and points +64, let us acknowledge that price is right where ’twas a mere 14 trading days ago on 26 September...
Gold and silver markets held firm early in the week and now appear to be surging, despite volatility ramping up on Thursday. A hotter than expected inflation report helped trigger a spike in bond yields and a selloff in stocks.
This article views the gold stock sector’s big picture bullish situation from the standpoint of a single indicator, the HUI/Gold ratio and its relationship to the 30 year Treasury bond yield.
The Dow Jones advanced a bit this week, bouncing off its BEV -10% line. With things happening in Israel and the Gaza Strip, one would think the Dow Jones should have gone down. I still expect the next significant level to be crossed by the Dow Jones below will be...

The major issue with the bond market right now is the overwhelming amount of bond issuance combined with the notable absence of the usual buyers. In other words, the illiquidity is already causing U.S. sovereign debt to trade like a microcap penny stock. This...

The final washout I warned gold investors about is over, and the breakout rally above $2100 may have begun. Gold miners could explode higher if gold reaches new all-time highs; they remain insanely undervalued and under-owned.
I am not sure if much of what is written regarding markets – especially the gold market – is based upon ignorance or just intellectual dishonesty. In either case, I am absolutely sick of it.
Here are today's videos and charts.
While the recent Israel-Hamas turmoil helped boost the yellow metal, the domestic fundamental outlook is much less supportive.
The battered gold miners’ stocks are clawing back from their recent unusual breakdown. That was fueled by heavy gold-futures short selling slamming gold in the wake of the latest FOMC meeting. Speculators’ resulting excessive shorts had to soon be covered, and...
