$100 Silver Has Come And Gone / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2019
By: Kelsey_Williams
In January 1980, the price of silver peaked at just under $50.00 per ounce. From its low in October 1971 at $1.27, silver had risen thirty-nine fold in little more than eight years.
There was talk about higher silver prices, as much as $100.00 per ounce and more. Yet, only a few months later, silver was down to $10.00 per ounce. That amounted to a decline of nearly eighty percent from its peak.
Silver bulls were not deterred, however. They continued to stress the “fundamentals” which would lead to higher silver prices, but their dreams turned into nightmares. The price of silver continued to fall.

Stock Market Roll Over Risk to New highs in S&P 500 / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2019
By: QUANTO
As global risks continue to rise and collect, equity markets rise as wave of bond market flows lift the risk markets globally. As the old saying goes, buy equities when there is blood on the streets. With Turkey fighting in Syria, risks are tilted to the downside for equity markets.
we remain in a fragile period where the possibility of a phased trade deal may not be enough to bring buyers into the markets. With earnings season due to start next week, anxious investors will soon have even more to worry about.
We analyse some charts and key fundamental data points.

Where Next for Oil After Its Double Reversal? / Commodities / Crude Oil
By: P_Radomski_CFA
Crude oil bounced from its yesterday’s lows, and the oil bulls rebuffed another attempt to move lower earlier today. Does that mean that the upswing can continue now, or a cautious approach would win the day?

Gold, the Ultimate Safe Haven Asset. A Looming Nobel Prize? / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2019
By: Arkadiusz_Sieron
Yesterday, the Nobel prizes in economics were awarded. Unfortunately, gold has been omitted and got nothing. How unfair! But looking at the Dutch central bank press release, gold would have much higher chances if they were the ones granting the prizes and not the Swedish central bank!
2019 Nobel in Economics and Gold
Yesterday was a big day! At least for all those boring economists and similar bean-counters. The Nobel Prize in economics was awarded. Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo, and Michael Kremer became 2019 laureates for their experimental approach to alleviating global poverty.

Market Action Suggests Downside in Precious Metals / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2019
By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne
At present, there could be a number of positive developments for precious metals.
Last Friday, the US Dollar cracked lower and could be at risk of lower levels into year end.
Days earlier the Federal Reserve announced new “QE-like” measures just as they told us it was not really QE.
In addition, the market is showing a nearly 68% chance of a rate cut later this month.

US Major Stock Market Indexes Retest Critical Price Channel Resistance / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2019
By: Chris_Vermeulen
News, again, drives the US stock market and major indexes higher as optimism of a US/China trade agreement floods the news wires. As we’ve been suggesting, the global markets continue to be news-driven and are seeking any positive news related to easing trade tensions and capital markets. We believe any US/China trade deal would be received as very positive news by the global capital markets – yet we understand the process of achieving the components of the “deal” would likely still be 6 to 24 months away.
Still, with the strength of the US economy and the potential that some deal could be reached before the end of 2019 setting positive expectations, the US stock market and major indexes rallied last Thursday and Friday (October 10 and 11). As the long holiday weekend sets up with no trading on Monday, it will be interesting to see what is potentially resolved between President Trump and the Chinese before the markets start to react on Sunday and Monday nights.

Stock Market Bears Back In Extinction Mode / Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2019
By: Ricky_Wen
The second week of October showcased a vigilant effort from both bulls and bears in realizing their short-term targets/goals. However, in the end, the bulls won the key battles again with the massive bull engulf daily candlestick (2881.75-2954 on the Emini S&P 500) on Thursday. In essence, the market was able to do the standard lower high/daily 20EMA rejection during early week back into the 2880-2900 first target zone, but the bears were unable to sustain that momentum into the second target zone of 2850-2860. Overall, the bulls have now completed the higher lows/double bottom setup, and the earnings week acceleration to the upside seems to be occurring.

“Baghad Jerome” Powell Denies the Fed Is Using Financial Crisis Tools / Interest-Rates / US Federal Reserve Bank
By: MoneyMetals
Jerome Powell has something in common with Bagdad Bob, Saddam Hussein’s infamous press secretary. They’re both liars, suggests Money Metals podcast guest Craig Hemke of the TF Metals Report.
Telling obvious lies with a straight face is part of Powell’s job description. He hopes to maintain order even though anyone who is paying attention knows something extraordinary is going on.

Will Interest Rate Cuts Be Enough? / Interest-Rates / US Interest Rates
By: Michael_Pento
The main stream financial media is absolutely ebullient about global central banks’ renewed enthusiasm to cut interest rates to a level that is even lower than they already are. And, most importantly, Wall Street is completely confident that theses marginally-lower borrowing costs will not only be enough to pull the global economy out of its malaise; but will also be sufficient to provide enough monetary thrust to blow asset bubbles into the thermosphere.

British Pound GBP Trend Analysis / Currencies / British Pound
By: Nadeem_Walayat
GBP Long-term Trend
What stands out from the long-term chart is that GBP has been in a downtrend for many years, a good 20 years in fact for I recall sterling trading at over £/$ 2.0 a few years earlier than this graph. So whilst the clueless mainstream press have been crowing since 23rd of June of how the Pound has collapsed following Brexit. What they fail to understand is that Pound would have fallen regardless of the results of the 23rd June 2016 referendum because it's in a bear market.

A Guide to Financing Your Next Car / Personal_Finance / Motoring
By: Boris_Dzhingarov
When it comes to investing in a new car, using cash to buy it outright will always be the most affordable option. Any other method of financing subjects you to interest and other potential expenses. However, putting down a large chunk of cash on a depreciating asset is a luxury that few can afford in today’s economy.
This is why a growing number of Brits are opting to finance their cars. The Finance and Leasing Association reported that a record 960,000 private buyers financed their new cars in 2018, while 7% more used cars were financed. Let’s take a look at the most popular financing methods to help you decide how to pay for your next car.

America's Ruling Class - Underestimating Them & Overestimating Us / Politics / US Politics
By: James_Quinn
Do not underestimate the ‘power of underestimation’. They can’t stop you, if they don’t see you coming.” ― Izey Victoria Odiase
During the summer of 2008 I was writing articles a few times per week predicting an economic catastrophe and a banking crisis. When the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression swept across the world, resulting in double digit unemployment, a 50% stock market crash in a matter of months, millions of home foreclosures, and the virtual insolvency of the criminal Wall Street banks, my predictions were vindicated. I was pretty smug and sure the start of this Fourth Turning would follow the path of the last Crisis, with a Greater Depression, economic disaster and war.

Gold Perspective is Everything / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2019
By: Rambus_Chartology
Perspective is everything when it comes to the markets. It is always most important to look at the long term charts first and then work your way back to the shorter timeframes. Long term charts also show where major support and resistance resides that can have a calming affect on ones emotions when the inevitable corrections take place.
Its been several months or so since we last looked at this 30 year quarterly chart for Gold that gives us very clear roadmap of how the price action may play out over the intermediate to longer term. Looking at the massive double bottom which launched Gold’s 2000’s bull market you can see there were three quarters of price action that took place on the breakout above the double bottom trendline with the final backtest occurring during the 3rd quarter of the breakout.
