Gold rallied jumping up to the Daily Bullish Reversal at 1757.7 but closed at 1755.3. The Daily Breakout Line stands at 1779 for Monday. A closing above 1570.1 for yearend will make this the 13 year high on a closing basis. We still have to be careful about 2013, which is a major Directional Change […]

It is just amazing that there are fanatics who somehow see gold as the exception to everything as if it were some mystical thing and not an investment, hedge or market at all. They portray me with such hatred even claiming I do manipulate the world economy because I said gold would pause and that […]

Most people assume that Roosevelt’s confiscation of gold was unique. There are those who keep insisting that there be a return to the gold standard. What they do not realize is that such propositions are really a call to arms. Government will not return to a gold standard because it would be a loss of […]

When I was invited by the Central Bank of China to Beijing after the 1997 Asian Currency Crisis, I was told to please continue to try to explain what was taking place in the world economy because I was the only independent analyst with worldwide experience.

September has proven to be the highest monthly closing. The correction is under way and the Reversals have been performing as usual. January is shaping up to be a major turning point in many markets.

Gold rallied nicely and stopped at the target resistance we had at the Weekly Bullish Reversals. Right now, support begins at 1755. This is the first MINOR Daily Bearish Reversal. A close below this will shift the momentum in gold back to a neutral position. There is no indication of a actual breakout to the […]

Gold is still in a position to press higher. Next week remains a target for rising volatility and the week after a turning point. The numbers are the numbers. We need a weekly closing ABOVE 17997 to signal a retest of the old high. But gold is not yet ready for the breakout. That appears […]

Greetings From Hong Kong. The Sovereign Debt Crisis continues to unfold and governments everywhere are still trying to use short-term measures to solve a systemic problem that requires major restructuring of the world economy. Spain revealed yet another plan to cut 40 billion Euro from spending and it will take 3.1 billion from state employee […]

Gold has taken a pause, but it remains above the key support at 1720. Volatility will start to rise again next week 9/17 and October is a Directional Change. The resistance is still at 17600 followed by Monthly Bullish Reversals that we may yet rise to test. There is still nothing to indicate that the […]

Gold has moved up into the 1700 level. We have closing resistance at 1720.7 – 1720.9. Gold rallied above this level, but this is the area to watch for the close of NYC. If we close above this area, then it is possible to rally a bit more but leaving this week as the highest weekly closing. […]
