Since February, the gold market has been in short-squeeze mode. This is a process by which excessive speculation on the declining gold price is being eliminated. The more the price goes up, the more of those speculators are forced to buy back their short positions.

The situation on the paper gold market shows that speculators are massively short on gold currently (even more so since they’re anticipating a friendly settlement for Greece). On the other hand, the commercials have taken the opposite side of the trade. Generally, this is a typical signal of a p...

Harry Dent (the one predicting gold at $700) is now being joined by many long-time bugs who are seeing gold plummet toward $1,000-$900... before it takes off to $5,000! I call this the final capitulation of the analysts. They are throwing the towel on this frustrating sector and their short- and...

The control the commercials and the COMEX manipulators have is very depressing for the gold market investor.

Gold is in backwardation, sentiment is historically negative, but this process of gold price destruction on the paper markets goes on... How much gold do the central banks have to recuperate still? What is behind those never-ending attacks? For how long will there be physical gold available?

The Fed bankers must be really upset: They haven’t even started to raise their base rate and markets are already in panic mode with the expected end to QE 3, just like junkies being told they might have to go into detox. The truth is that economic recovery is so fragile that it can’t go without m...

Parabolic moves always end in capitulation. Is it possible to go even further into this panic selling which now seems to feed itself, with long-term investors capitulating?

As expected, immediately following its Wednesday speech, the Fed went on with its market regulating policy in order to send positive signals to the markets and to maintain the trust of investors.

I think we have all seen this series of attacks on gold and silver on the COMEX, but also outside of it, in London and Hong Kong, as has been the case for every gold price control operation since 2013.

The Fed is in full market control mode after its tentative interest rates future increase announcement. It constantly keeps the stock market from properly correcting, in the hope it will keep going until the next Fed announcement.

The next 7-year cycle, from 2015 to 2021, will bring a crisis of “biblical proportions”, much worse than the 2008 crisis, that might resemble the ‘30s Great Depression even more but, this time around, with massive devaluation of the dollar and other paper currencies against gold.

The Fed has fought by all possible means the installation of the correction wave, because the amount of debt is so high that letting deflation happen would lead to a never-seen-before catastrophe

The gold miners’ good performance in 2014 bodes well for gold not having to worry about a bear market taking place, like in 2013, or about testing again its major $1,178 bottom.

Yesterday, the daily volume on the GDXJ Junior Miners Index beat all records, exceeding by 33% its highest historic value, and producing a 5.78% hike, five times the performance of gold!

The Fed is trying to control the price of gold below $1,300 and the price of silver below $20. Every time the Fed speaks flash crashes in gold and silver happen, which has probably kept the dollar from falling more as a consequence.

The breakout observed on the CCI commodities index should correspond to another leg in the bear market for the dollar and to another leg in the bull market for commodities that started in 2001 and that can be qualified as a « supercycle ».

I think we are getting to a very important test for gold, around $1,300, without a doubt the most important test of the year.

  This chart by itself shows how much investors’ sentiment about the gold miners has reached a peak of pessimism not seen since 1943. Miners selling so cheap in relation to gold is a sign of historical capitulation all over the sector. Their valuations, in terms of P/E and business value,...

In the newspapers, one can read a lot of stupid things about gold. They say that gold needs inflation in order to go up. They say that gold moves in an opposite direction to the dollar. Those things are true sometimes, but not always. There is no mathematical relation between the two. They say t...

Paper gold sellers (probably banks like HSBC or JP Morgan) decided (jointly?) to hit the market hard on April 12 and 15, and on June 20 and 26, with so much selling that the effect on the price had to lead to a brutal collapse. On those four days of smashdown, the price of gold fell by $340! It s...
