China & Gold

The gold promoters are trying to claim that China is understating its gold reserves because it is trying to confuse the markets about their clear ambitions to make the yuan a world reserve currency to challenge the hegemony of the U.S. dollar. The rally in gold was technical and a closing above 1109 should spark a rally […]

Market Talk – August 12, 2015

The Chinese revaluation of yuan has unsettled Asian equity markets and the obvious spread across the globe. The Nikkei and Hang Seng were off 1.6 and 2.4% respectively, which rolled over into Europe. The recent performance in both the DAX and CAC finished today and became the worst performers — down around 3.6% each.  The U.S. market was also feeling the pressure with the […]

China Devalued the Yuan to it in Line with Technicals

Confusion hits the markets as stocks, currencies, and commodities fall sharply across the region as investors fear a stalling Chinese economy and possible currency war despite Beijing’s assurances. We warned that this devaluation was NOT A FLUKE, and far too many people just misrepresent what is truly going on within the world economy so it comes […]

The Dow & the Correction

The support on our weekly models lies at 17253 and 17068. Weekly closings beneath these numbers will confirm that a correction is in progress. Keep in mind that a decline in the share market should send capital into a final spin with the rush to a flight to quality creating the last peak in government. […]

Gold – Losing Its Mobility

One of the greatest advantages of gold throughout history was the fact that it was independent of government and movable. Today, the hunt for taxes by government has been expanded to all forms of wealth. Above is the entry form for India. Not only is gold specifically listed, it is listed in jewelry form, and […]

India & New Highs

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; It is wonderful that you have come to India. I only regret that you are not conducting an open conference here in Mumbai. I appreciate that your trip is only to visit the biggest institutions here in India and that is great that they receive you to help our country. I wanted […]

China & the Dollar

The dollar rally and the devaluation of the yuan is not a fluke and it most certainly is not a one-time event. The dollar declined against the yuan for 19 years during the same timing that saw gold decline from 1980 to 1999. The major low on an annual closing basis at 2013 and 2014 was an outside reversal […]

China Devalues Yuan — Why?

China devalued the yuan in what many think was a surprise move. What they do not understand is that this move is more than trying to firm up exports; this devaluation has a similar impact to raising interest rates to stem speculation. Foreign capital just lost 2%. I have stated before, the Bank of China […]

The Dark Cloud on the Horizon

  The dark cloud on the horizon may be far different from what traditional analysis anticipates. The degree of plagiarism with so many people now copying what our forecasts, claiming they are their’s, and touting cycles without ever mentioning our model is really amazing. People are sending in examples from all over the world, and now there […]

Gold & The Bounce

Gold rallied and stopped dead at 1108.50, just shy of the 1109 Daily Bullish Reversal. Technically, the market stopped at the bottom of the broad channel overhead. We do not have the confirmation of the rally into September until we achieve that daily closing above 1109. Meanwhile, support has moved up to 1085 and 1082. […]
