• USD’s Likely Bottom and Its Implications for Precious Metals

  May 8, 2017, 10:01 AM

  

  The medium-term trends in gold are reflected by the medium-term trends in the USD Index and that’s been the case for many years. Naturally, there are deviations from this rule, but generally, it has to be the case simply because gold is priced in the US dollar. Consequently, it is very important for precious metals investors and traders to monitor the USD Index as signs of bottoms likely indicate lower prices for PMs in the following weeks. You’ll find details in today’s Gold-&-Silver-Trading-Alert-based free article.

• Sign of Outperformance in Metals

  May 4, 2017, 9:53 AM

  

  In yesterday’s alert we wrote that the reversal in the precious metals market should once again not be taken at its face value and even if that one should not overreact based on it as the size of the potential rally was limited. Well, it turned out that “limited rally” was an euphemism for a decline. Gold, silver and mining stocks declined once again despite the previous day’s reversal and gold stocks confirmed the breakdown below the key support line. The implications are strongly bearish. However, there’s something ever more bearish and much more profound.
