This Week in Gold

Jack Chan

Technical Analyst & Editor

May 24, 2007

The gold sector remains on a sell signal since April.

$HUI - is now below the 200ema support and oversold.

$XAU - consolidating at the 200ema.

GDX - has found support at the 200ema.

XGD.TO - the Cdn ETF is deep below the 200ema support and deeply oversold. The daily configuration is now bearish and any rally is considered corrective as long as 200ema provides resistance.

Summary

The gold sector indices and ETFs continue to be oversold and can bounce sharply from current levels. However, we will remain in cash until we have a signal, set up, and reasonable stop.
