Video: Dollar Breakout, Gold Stocks Breakdown

Recorded Saturday. The US$ broke to a new 52-week high while last week the gold stocks broke down to 18 month (GDX) and 30-month (HUI) lows.  

Interview: Relationship b/w Gold & Gold Stocks During Sector Weakness

Interview with KE Report on Wednesday. When precious metals are very weak the gold stocks can struggle and detach from Gold at times. 

Different Look at the Yield Curve

Another great, quick post from Steve Saville on the yield curve and what it means for Gold. 

 

Who Needs Gold When Real Growth Picks Up?

The recent growth pickup in the economy is likely temporary. However, real rates/yields are stable and trending higher. That's bearish Gold for now.

Chart 1: GDXJ w/ Breadth Indicators

This image plots GDXJ along with breadth indicators based on a 55 stock basket of junior stocks. We plot the percentage of the basket that closed above their 20-dma, 50-dma and 200-dma. 

Those three figures come in at 25%, 21% and 31%. As you can see, they are a little oversold but are not close to extremes yet. Maybe if GDXJ declines 9% to that strong support near $28, then the breadth indicators would approach extremes.

The 24-page update was published and emailed to subscribers late Saturday night. 

The two takeaways from the update were Gold looks increasingly ready to rally while the gold stocks made a technical breakdown and are not yet oversold.

Gold continues to hold $1200-$1210 despite an upside surge and breakout in the US$. That and the net spec position falling to only 5.6% of open interest (it was 0.1% in late 2015) bode well for a Gold rebound. If Gold can takeout $1230-$1235 then it should reach $1260. 

Meanwhile, the gold stocks brokedown. The HUI closed at a 2.5 year low while GDX closed at an 18-month low. A market that makes that kind of a breakdown can threaten to decline more before it has an oversold rally. Moreover, we noted the breadth indicators for GDXJ above. For GDX, its bullish percentage index is 37%. It was 7% at the December 2016 low and 17% at the July 2017 low.

So while Gold is oversold and stabilizing, the gold stocks are not. They could drop more before they sustain a rally. 

We discussed our targets for selling our JDST and DUST positions which obviously are performing well. We still sense a lot of upside in the coming months. New subscribers have a chance to make money as the sector declines and then load up on juniors that have a chance to be 5 and 10 baggers after the bottom sometime next year. 

Consider a subscription as we can help you navigate what lies ahead for the sector and help you position in the stocks that can make big gains when the Federal Reserve is done hiking rates. Subscribe and give us your list of stocks and we will give our opinion, buy, sell or hold.

I am familiar with most gold stock subscription services over the past 30 years. I rarely provide endorsements of any kind, but Jordan's ability to analyze individual gold/silver stocks has been among the top 5 services over the past decade. First and foremost, I respect his integrity. - Dr. Jeffrey Kern, SkiGoldStocks.com
