I love when I hang with my nephew. He's seven, so I get to play Legos, watch Marvel movies, and learn new words that the kids are using these days. Spending time with him reminds me of how old I'm getting.Recently, we watched Iron Man 2 together, and he called it "garbo." My response was: What in the hell is a "garbo"?My nephew had to explain that "garbo" is simply short for garbage. I swear I fel...Read More

Both exceeded two prior lows on the daily chart, generating bearish 'impulse legs' in the process. Now, even if the Dow should recover much or most of it in the days ahead, it would not change the troubling fact that two diving feints occurred within such a short time spa...Read More
Stock bump should be very bullish for gold. I write once again that short covering and subsequent long position building will be there if gold manages to trade over $1292.
