Silver: Taking Out Resistance...and Ready for its Next Big Move

2 weeks ago | moneyshow.com | Brien Lundin

No, your Gold Newsletter Alert service hasn’t transformed into a daily letter. But it’s silver’s turn to break out, writes Brien Lundin, executive editor of Gold Newsletter. We’ve become accustomed in this 15-month-long bull market to seeing gold-only moves, with silver only reluctantly following along, if at all. That’s because this gold bull was spawned and supported by central bank buying, and central banks don’t buy silver or mining stocks.
Gold Correction?

1 month ago | advisorperspectives.com | Brien Lundin

Gold remains firmly in correction mode — even I will readily agree with that. But one of the most interesting things about this bull market is that, for it at least, the word “correction” has taken on a new meaning. As you can see below, this has been a remarkable run for gold, one that I will confidently call unprecedented. What we see here is that, with the exception of the downturn following the U.S. presidential election, gold hasn’t really traced out a typical correction.

Gold’s Strange Behavior

Yes, it’s different this time. I know that’s about the most dangerous phrase in all of investing, and virtually everyone who has ever uttered it was ultimately made a fool by the markets. But there’s no denying that this gold bull market is unprecedented for a number of reasons.
Gold Plummets... So Why Are Gold Bulls Happy?

2 months ago | gold-eagle.com | Brien Lundin

I’ve never been so happy to see gold drop $100 in a day. Of course, I’ve never been happy at all to see gold drop like that, before today. In a sign of how weird and volatile these markets are, I clicked on the MarketWatch tab in my browser this morning, only to see it hadn’t updated since I last viewed it yesterday. I couldn’t help but notice it showing the Dow down 600 points and gold up $108.
Unstoppable Gold

2 months ago | gold-eagle.com | Brien Lundin

Gold’s up nearly $100...again...as I write, and even I’m stunned by this rally. This run in gold, now to over $3,400 on a spot basis, has been so remarkable that even the major media are, well...remarking on it. That leads, of course, to the talking heads trying to explain it. And, true to form, they’re taking their shots and badly missing. Many are crediting the jump in gold to the drop in the U.S. dollar, and given this slide in the greenback, that’s not surprising.
It’s Not ONE Thing Driving it. It’s EVERY Thing.

Gold surged another $100 at one point yesterday, and even I’m stunned by this rally. This run in gold, now to over $3,400 on a spot basis, has been so remarkable that even the major media are, well...remarking on it, notes Brien Lundin, executive editor of Gold Newsletter. That leads, of course, to the talking heads trying to explain it. And, true to form, they’re taking their shots and badly missing.
Gold On Fire

2 months ago | gold-eagle.com | Brien Lundin

It's getting crazy now, and it's obvious gold is telling us something. It began last night, as the price of gold began to take off in overseas trading. The chatter on X alerted those of us trying to get away from the markets for a few hours to what was going on. I took a moment from my BBQ to check the price. It was up about $40, no news. It seemed that Asia, again, wanted gold.
The World Is Selling America

2 months ago | gold-eagle.com | Brien Lundin

The world is worried. And typically in such an environment, investors across the globe rush to three safe havens: the U.S. dollar, U.S. Treasuries, and gold. This time is different — because they’re dumping the greenback and Treasuries... and buying gold hand over fist. This dynamic isn’t just unusual, it’s unprecedented...and illustrated in the chart below. In this chart, the Dollar Index is in green, the 10-year Treasury yield is in red, and gold, of course, is the gold area in the background.
What Gold Is Telling Us

It isn’t often that you check the markets over your first cup of coffee and find gold up over $100. But that’s precisely what greeted me as I switched on CNBC this morning. Shades of October 2008... and March 2020!Over the past week, we’ve seen similarities with those two previous crises in that gold and silver have been alternately sold off as investors desperately raised cash for margin calls, and then bouncing higher as traders bet on more mayhem and easier money.
