$HUI (Gold Bugs Index) Rally / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2016

By: Gary_Savage

I said one doesn’t need to chase the rally during the second leg, any gains would not be sustainable and would be given back.

At the low yesterday miners had already given back 62% of the second leg gains, and we are not done with the Intermediate Cycle Low yet. The final Intermediate Cycle Low isn’t due until late June or early July. This is why it wasn’t critical to chase the second leg, one was going to get a second shot at it anyway.

Gold Price Looking Vulnerable While Gold Stocks Correct / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2016

By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne

Last week we highlighted our gold stocks bull analog chart which showed the gold stocks correcting at least 20% at this point during both the 2008-2009 and 2000-2001 recoveries. We concluded that gold stocks were likely to continue to correct in the days and weeks ahead. While that has played out so far, we should also note that Gold is suddenly looking more vulnerable.

The 5 Fatal Flaws of Trading / Interest-Rates / Learn to Trade

By: EWI

Close to ninety percent of all traders lose money. The remaining ten percent somehow manage to either break even or even turn a profit -- and more importantly, do it consistently. How do they do that?

That's an age-old question. While there is no magic formula, Elliott Wave International's own Jeffrey Kennedy has identified five fundamental flaws that, in his opinion, stop most traders from being consistently successful. We don't claim to have found The Holy Grail of trading here, but sometimes a single idea can change a person's life. Maybe you'll find one in Jeffrey's take on trading. We sincerely hope so.

The Next Big Crash Of The U.S. Economy Is Coming, Here’s Why / Economics / Economic Collapse

By: Steve_St_Angelo

Investors better be prepared as the next crash of the U.S. economy is coming.  This is not based on hype or speculation, rather due to the disintegration of the underlying fundamentals.  Matter-a-fact, the fundamentals are so completely AWFUL, that the next market crash will make 2008 look quite tame indeed.

It Feels Like Inflation / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2016

By: Gary_Tanashian

Last night’s post on the US stock market ended as follows:

“As far as the Fed and its puny rate hikes are concerned, that is irrelevant.  This market is flipping them the bird.  Markets can rise a long way before a rate hike regime finally kills them.  It feels like inflation folks.”

This prompted a question from an NFTRH subscriber about what markets would benefit, and in what differing ways would they benefit if an inflationary phase comes to dominate?  That is a far reaching question and a difficult one as well, because inflation’s effects have a way of being unpredictable (how many would have answered ‘US stock market’ in the spring of 2011 to the question “where will the post-crisis inflation to date manifest on this cycle”?).

Negative Interest Rates Set to Propel the Dow Jones to the Stratosphere? / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: Sol_Palha

"Every man must patiently bide his time. He must wait -- not in listless idleness but in constant, steady, cheerful endeavors, always willing and fulfilling and accomplishing his task, that when the occasion comes he may be equal to the occasion." ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Central bankers wanted to put the fear of God into the masses and to a large degree they have succeeded in doing so; the masses are so afraid that they continue to hoard their money and refuse to put into the market, and that is why this Bull-Market is the most hated in history. Nine years and counting and you would think by now they would have surrendered these false beliefs as the Bears have been decapitated, and the naysayers are hiding in the woodwork. However, ignorance, like stupidity knows no limits and continues to trend upwards; if there were a way to invest in stupidity it would be an easy way to score a home run.

Cash Holdings of Apple and Other Tech High Fliers Are A Massive Risk in This Debt Jubilee Era / Interest-Rates / Credit Crisis 2016

By: Jeff_Berwick

Throw every “norm” out the window.  This Keynesian, central banking world has everything so distorted that nothing makes sense anymore.

There are currently more than $7 trillion in bonds, worldwide, offering a negative interest rate. Wrap your head around that!  People are actually paying trillions of dollars to give their money to mostly bankrupt governments with the promise they will receive less at a later date.

S&P Significant Low has Occurred – Not Likely! / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2016

By: DeviantInvestor

There are patterns in markets. Yes, the Fed and High Frequency Traders influence markets, but we can learn from past patterns in the S&P 500 Index.

Using weekly data, the S&P made a high in March 2000, fell to an initial low in April, rose, and fell to a second low in October 2000.  It rallied and fell below the second low in February 2001 – never to look back.  From high to final low took 931 calendar days and price fell about 51%.

Statistics for Funeral Planning in UK Grave / Personal_Finance / Pensions & Retirement

By: ....

Recent research has revealed that a shocking 45% of Britons have made no provisions for the event of their death, and that one in ten of the survey respondents foresee that their friends and family will have to foot the bill when they pass away. British Seniors Insurance Agency, an insurance company specialising in British Seniors, conducted this research via Opinium Research earlier this year.

This research uncovers the grave truth about funerals, memorial services and deaths - often loved ones are expected to take on the financial burden. With costs of funerals rising to an estimated £5,469 in some areas of the UK, this can cause substantial emotional stress. The research results suggested that, of the respondents surveyed who had managed the affairs of their loved ones, 58% admitted that it had a direct effect on their emotional health. This statistic was even higher among those respondents in the age bracket of 18-34 years old.

Hard Times and False Mainstream Media Narratives / Politics / Mainstream Media

By: James_Quinn

The mainstream media mouthpieces for the establishment peddle false narratives, disingenuous storylines, and outright propaganda to keep the ignorant masses confused, oblivious to reality, misinformed, and passively submissive to the opinions of highly paid “experts” and captured fiscal authorities. The existing social order likes things just as they are.

They reap ill-gotten riches, wield unchecked power, and control the minds of the masses. They are the invisible government consciously manipulating the minds, habits and opinions of the multitudes in order to dominate society, control the levers of government, and accumulate obscene levels of wealth through manipulation of the currency and domination of the banking and corporate interests.

Does the Alternative Media Still Exist? With Graham Mehl / Politics / Mainstream Media

By: Andy_Sutton

Going in, we readily admit this is likely not to be a popular read with many folks. However, to adapt the famous saying of Patrick Henry, the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of tyrants and patriots. We use the saying purely in a metaphorical fashion in this instance. In our article, you can substitute the patriot’s blood with the carcasses of those who at first championed liberty, but now have become what they most despised. History is replete with examples of men both big and small of championing a cause only to end up right back where they started – only this time they’re looking at themselves in the mirror.
