Market Outlook/Potential Opportunities:
Another interesting week for GLD. Gold is stuck in a pennant formation, torn between two arguments as to whish way it will turn. I think we should take profits here on Gold until it officially resolves itself. We might risk not being on board of a breakout but I would much rather be late and right than early and wrong. The stock market is overbought but projections are still for an SP of 1060. It is very tough to chase this market. It does not give a great entry zone. China showed some poor relative strength on this last up move. Once the market falters, this could be the first to stumble. Once again I will send out some more recommendations during the week if situations warrant it.
