Gold Stocks Corrections in Bull Markets

Penned Friday. This includes our new correction analog chart. The main takeaway is there will be another leg down (in terms of time but not necessarily to new price lows). 

Video: Market Signaling Inflation in 2017..?

Direct link to YouTube video. We recently published a video analyzing the CPI. In this video we look at market indicators for inflation and inflation expectations. Keep an eye on these as they are signaling potential for rising inflation in 2017. 

Interview with Korelin Economics Report

Direct link to my Tuesday interview. About 10 minutes long. 

October Macro Update: Solid Wage Growth but...

A very balanced, data-focused and data-driven look and analysis of the US economy. The Fat Pitch blog does a great job. Economy still muddling along...

Connecting the Dots

This piece is from Market Anthropology and it covers many markets but with a heavy focus on the US$ and Gold. Erik Swartz does great work. 

Inflation Dogma Dies Hard

Chart 1: GDM Daily Line Chart (parent index of GDX)

The chart below plots the daily line chart of GDM which is the parent index of the GDX ETF. So think of this as GDX going back 20 years.

Note how GDM has almost tested its 400-day exponential moving average. Note the blue arrows. They show the 400-dema as support during bull markets. The 400-dema, when supporting the market has provided excellent buy opportunities. 



Chart 1: Weekly Candle Charts of GDX, GDXJ

The image below contains the weekly candle charts of GDX and GDXJ as well as their simple 80-week moving averages, which is one of my favorite moving averages.

We've discussed the confluence of strong support around $22 in GDX. That also includes $21 as we can see below. That $21-$22 lateral support has not quite been tested yet. It could be this week. Meanwhile, GDXJ has strong lateral support at $33-$34. It might not come down that much. It closed at $38. But I could definitely see it testing $35. 



Saturday evening we sent TDG #487, a 38-page update, yes 38 pages, which included a report on one of my favorite optionality plays, charts on numerous companies we are following and charts covering Gold, Silver and the mining indices. We also mentioned the company that is currently number one on our buy list. 

We have already touched on some of our views in the above links. We covered the potential for more weakness that could lead to a stronger rebound, as the sector has yet to rebound. Gold could test its 40-month moving average in the $1230s or even test a confluence of support around $1215 before rebounding. The same could be said for the miners and GDX touching $21 or GDXJ testing $35. 

The bottom line is two-fold. First, we are very close to a short-term low and a buy point. Second, given history and current technicals the gold stocks figure to remain in a consolidation and will likely have another leg lower (but not necessarily to new lows). So we anticipate another buying opportunity sometime in Q1 2017.

If you want to get my full analysis then consider subscribing to my premium service for what amounts to less than $1/day.

Since the summer of 2009, our model portfolio is up 354%. During the same period, GDX is down 39.4%, GDXJ is down an estimated 45%, the Tocqueville Gold Fund is up 4% and Gold is up only 33%. This period includes the worst and longest bear market of the past 90 years!

We seek to own the companies with the best fundamentals that have the best risk/reward potential. We want to own the leaders while avoiding laggards with limited potential. We also want to cut our losses. A 20% stop loss on a 5% position limits the loss to 1% of the portfolio.
