Gold’s Strange Behavior

1 week ago | gold-eagle.com | Brien Lundin

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?

3 weeks 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

3 weeks 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

4 weeks 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

1 month 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

1 month ago | gold-eagle.com | Brien Lundin

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.
Gold: After Brief Dip, What Should Traders Expect Next

1 month ago | moneyshow.com | Brien Lundin

Gold just dropped more than $40 in price from last week’s high. The gold bug reaction? A collective yawn. Meanwhile, every previous instance of gold’s RSI peaking above 70 has presaged a price correction and, with the exception of the post-election correction, the pause in the rally has been brief, notes Brien Lundin, executive editor of Gold Newsletter. I just read a fascinating piece by Taylor Burnett of the World Gold Council.
Why Is Gold Soaring?

1 month ago | gold-eagle.com | Brien Lundin

Gold has not only held the lofty $3,000 line, it’s advanced well beyond. This raises the question...why? After a dizzying run to $3,000 that has stunned even the most ardent gold bulls, the yellow metal has continued to climb. Count me among the dumbfounded bulls. I stood in awe at how easily gold had achieved the latest millennium number, even as it was hesitating at $3,000. But since then, the run has continued, punctuated by a $34 jump yesterday even as other asset classes were diving.
(03/19/25) $3K Target Hit! Now, Look for Miners to Do THIS

1 month ago | moneyshow.com | Brien Lundin

It’s been a remarkable run to the historic $3,000 level in gold...but it hasn’t been quite as carefree as the charts might show. It’s often said that “A bull market climbs a wall of worry” but this gold bull has seemingly climbed a “cliff of concern” amongst oft-beaten gold investors. Now, start your due diligence on the best of the junior mining stocks, advises Brien Lundin, executive editor of Gold Newsletter.
