The European central bank seems to have adopted a middle of the road strategy in light of Trump's tax uncertainty. Traders were looking for an aggressive stance by the ECB on monetary withdrawal but were disappointed. The Euro fell and the US dollar gained. Gold fell following the US dollar gains. If US nonfarm payrolls comes in over 200,000 then gold and silver can fall more. I do not expect an...Read More
The small contrarian gold-mining sector remains deeply out of favor, universally ignored. Thus the gold stocks are largely drifting listlessly, totally devoid of excitement. But that's the best time to buy low, when few others care. The gold stocks continue to form strong technical bases, paving the way for massive mean-reversion uplegs. And they remain exceedingly cheap relative to gold prices, w...Read More

In the previous edition of the Market Overview, we explored the fascinating history of bull and bear cycles in both the U.S. dollar and gold. Since then, the idea of cyclicity doesn't lead me to drop off, disrupting my sleep cycles. Let's then dig into the topic. We start with the business cycles, as in the recent Gold News Monitor we wrote that "we are in the late stages of the economic cycle - a...Read More
By Dave KranzlerThe census bureau does the data-gathering and the Bureau of Labor Statistics feeds the questionable data sample through its statistical sausage grinder and spits out some type of grotesque scatological substance. You know an economic report is pure absurdity when the report exceeds Wall Street's rose-colored estimate by 53%. That has to be, by far, an all-time record-high "be...Read More

You thought I was done with the Amigos shtick, did you? Not by a long shot ma'am. They are the happy-go-lucky riders in play as the stock bull market churns on. They are the rising SPX/Gold ratio and stocks in general vs. gold (Amigo #1), rising US 10yr & 30yr yields (Amigo #2) and the flattening 10-2 yield curve (Amigo #3). On their current trends these goofy riders have signaled "a-okay!" to cas...Read More
