Gold Bullish or Bearish

Recommended Posts

Ill stop buying when they stop printing money. I'll continue to buy on weakness. This is a long term position, not a trade. Rather have gold than worthless dollars.

Maybe 2020 they will turn off the printing presses. :D

 

Central Banks wish your hyper-inflationary theory is correct. In fact that is what they are trying to do because they fear that they cannot prevent asset prices from falling. When all the gold bugs realize that the opposite of what they were expecting is occurring, we will see gold at $12 an ounce.

For those Gold traders who consider fundamentals, there is a positive correlation between the gold price and FOOD prices. When there is food price inflation, the price of gold rises.

Now over the last week CORN has gone up big time because of drought conditions in parts of the USA.

Expect a correction in gold .......UP.

Caution. Corn is only a small part of the food chain . Not all foods are going up, so expect the gold correction to be small.

PS Better still, BUY CORN Futures

Gold has been following Silver's lead since the double top last Aug/Sept.

 

Gold made slightly higher swing high while Silver made a slightly lower swing high.

 

Silver having more practical uses in industry is falling with the slowing growth rate in the world economy. Nothing more complicated than that.

The best analysis i've seen was by Cullen Roche at pragcap.com

 

Lots of folks still think many governments are printing to much money and somehow gold would be safer... (not sure why gold has more value than anything else if it is armagedden ;-).

 

There used to be a strong correlation of gold to US inflation, but not so much the past decade or so. Money creation doesn't necessarily lead to hyperinflation, and the US has been more in deflation, but gold still goes up.

 

it is because the demand for gold is from India and China. Watch the CPI in China and you'll see the most curent influence on gold prices.

yes great chart to prove a point :roll eyes:......what happens when you put them on the same vertical axis.

 

I was unfortunately previously associated with someone who used to claim....

 

Gold is a great inflation hedge.....(and in the same breath)

If gold were to be inflation adjusted it would be worth $5000.

 

amazing when you change the horizontal axis as well to prove a point, or go back 100 years to show a short term trend.

It is funny to hear both, especially when it is from the same person, but I suppose your associate is right about the inflation adjusted price of gold. The comment about the inflation hedge is that it is the commonly used hedge against inflation. Gold and other precious metals are seen as being good stores of value. Inflation erodes value in intangible assets. Gold is a good store of value, but by no means is it a great or perfect store of value and, therefore not a perfect hedge against inflation.

exactly.....how with a straight face you can say....

 

this instrument is a great hedge against inflation,

and then in the next breath say,

it is cheap - because it has been such a poor hedge against inflation in reality.

 

If you find chart to back your idea then its all good.....extend the chart or change the comparison.....different story

 

sales pitch, sales pitch, sales pitch.........:doh:

What was today's high?

 

Oh that's right - right in the resistance zone I've mentioned repeatedly.

 

On the biggest volume in weeks. Looks like distribution to me.

 

Maybe it breaks it ..... and maybe it doesn't.

Perhaps a buying opp will present itself. Who knows. No sign of the bailout easing, just throwing more printed money at the bad debt. Only means one thing for gold.

Up up up. 🎉🎉🎉

    • Date: 14th February 2025.   Can The NASDAQ Maintain Momentum at Key Resistance Level?     The price of the NASDAQ throughout the week rose more than 3.00% to bring the price back up to the instrument’s resistance level. However, while taking into consideration higher inflation, tariffs and the resistance level, could the index maintain momentum?   US Inflation Rises For a 4th Consecutive Month The US Consumer Price Index, or inflation, rose for a 4th consecutive month taking the rate even further away from the Federal Reserve’s target. Analysts were expecting the US inflation rate to remain unchanged at 2.9%. However, consumer inflation rose to 3.00%, the highest since July 2024, while Producer inflation rose to 3.5%. Higher inflation traditionally triggers lower sentiment towards the stock market as investors' risk appetite falls and they prefer the US Dollar. However, on this occasion bullish volatility rose. For this reason, some traders may be considering if the price is overbought in the short term.   Addressing these statistics, US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell acknowledged that the Fed has yet to achieve its goal of curbing inflation, adding further hawkish signals regarding the monetary policy. Other members of the FOMC also share this view. Today, Raphael Bostic, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, stated that the Fed is unlikely to implement interest rate cuts in the near future. This is due to ongoing economic uncertainty following the introduction of trade tariffs on imported goods and other policies from the Republican-led White House.   Most of the Federal Open Market Committee emphasizes additional time is needed to fully assess the situation. According to the Chicago Exchange FedWatch Tool, interest rate cuts may not start until September 2025.   What’s Driving The NASDAQ Higher? Earnings data this week has continued to support the NASDAQ. Early this morning Airbnb made public their quarterly earnings report whereby they beat both earnings per share and revenue expectations. The Earnings Per Share read 25% higher than expectations and Revenue was more than 2% higher. As a result, the stock rose more than 14%. Another company this week that made public positive earnings data is Cisco which rose by more than 2% on Thursday. Another positive factor continues to be the positive employment data. Even though the positive employment data can push back interest rate cuts, the stability in the short term continues to serve the interests of higher consumer demand. The US Unemployment Rate fell to 4.00% the lowest in 8 months. Lastly, investors are also increasing their exposure to the index due to sellers not being able to maintain control or momentum. Some economists also increase their confidence in economic growth if Trump can obtain a positive outcome from the Ukraine-Russia negotiations.   However, during Friday’s pre-US session trading, 80% of the most influential stocks are witnessing a decline. The NASDAQ itself is trading more or less unchanged. Therefore, the question again arises as to whether the NASDAQ can maintain momentum above this area.   NASDAQ - News and Technical analysis In terms of technical analysis, the NASDAQ is largely witnessing mainly bullish indications on the 2-hour chart. However, the main concern for traders is the resistance level at $21,960. On the 5-minute timeframe, the price is mainly experiencing bearish signals as the price moves below the 200-period simple moving average.   The VIX, which is largely used as a risk indicator, is currently trading 0.75% higher which indicates a lower risk appetite. In addition to this, bond yields trade 6 points higher. If both the VIX and Bond yields rise further, further pressure may be witnessed for index traders.   Always trade with strict risk management.
