Market Trends

It's Thursday afternoon and I thought that, with today's bounce back rally in the Comex metals, we should update the charts and give you some levels to watch into Friday's close.

First of all, I do not plan to have any posts or podcasts tomorrow. As we mentioned yesterday, there won't...

Welcome back, my friends
To the show that never ends
We're so glad you could attend
Come inside! Come inside!

So today kicks off CGP's final carnival and side show of 2018. Will it end with the final rate hike of his tenure as Fed Head? Will he bring...

All eyes will be on Chief Goon Powell and his FOMC come Wednesday. But there's a lot going on between now and then, too.

So off we go with what might be the most consequential week of the year...and it's week 51 of 52! What will CGP do? More importantly, what will he and his band of...

This certainly promises to be an interesting week. I'm not even sure where to start...

1. The Brexit vote which may or may not happen tomorrow.
2. Continued unrest in France.
3. More China-US issues re Huawei.
4. Ukraine.
5. PPI and CPI as well as
...

There's so much going on today that I'm not sure where to start. Stocks plunging. Bonds rallying. Brexit talks. Economic data. Trade war. The list seems endless so where do we begin?

I guess we'll start with the "stock market". It has been under pressure since full trading reopened...

It's coming at CGP from multiple directions today. First, Trump in all his glory, pounded away in an interview posted...

In a stunning development, there are reports today that CGP and his Fed will reverse course and pause all fed funds hikes as soon as Q1 of next year. NO! YA DON'T SAY! Who could have seen that coming?

Here's the link from ZH. You should be sure to look it over:...

All major equity indices are now red for the year and it sure looks like they may fall farther in the days ahead. How will this impact CGP and his plans for 2019? That's the primary question for all of us sound money advocates.

In yesterday's podcast, we discussed the likelihood of an...

It will be an odd week with the US holiday of Thanksgiving shuttering our "markets" on Thursday and an abbreviated session on Friday. So let's begin the week with a collection of noteworthy items that merit your consideration.

First and foremost, there definitely seemed to be a...

It's a very busy morning. Lots of headlines and Comex gold saw some of the short squeeze we just wrote about back on Wednesday. But there are also some hints of a sea change of the sort that will drive prices back and much higher in 2019. Let's list a few of them.

As MrsF likes to say...

A flood of new Spec money is flowing into the short side of both Comex gold and Comex silver. I wonder how that's going to work out for them?

Before we get started, thanks again to everyone for your patience and understanding yesterday. Though I'm a little stiff after repeatedly...
