GST Issue #205
Dear Member,
The markets this week have been “much ado about nothing.”
* Gold’s traded in a tight, $20 range, back and forth.
* Silver in a minor $0.52 range.
* The Dollar Index has traded in a tiny 2.5 point trading range.
* And the Dow Industrials in a 270-point range.
That said, I expect next week to bring more action as the ranges start to expand. Importantly, there have been NO trend changes. ALL major trends remain intact …
* The downtrend for the precious metals has merely paused. Though there could be one more rally attempt, I repeat my warnings: The next BIG move will be down.
* The uptrend for the dollar – and downtrend for the euro – also remains intact. Despite what you hear, the U.S. dollar remains poised for substantial new highs.
* The stock markets are still topping, based on all available evidence. Same thing here. The next big move in stocks should be to the downside.
* Ditto for China’s stock market, which is way overdue for a correction.
For now, hold all positions, with their related stops in place. For the options recommended, there are no stops. I am watching them closely. But keep in mind options are strictly limited risk, and you may have to hold these to expiration.
If on the other hand, I get clear signals you should exit them, even at a loss, I won’t hesitate to recommend you do so. But right now, all of my models tell me you are on the right side of the market with the existing positions.
I expect the markets to loosen up next week, and will therefore likely have new recommendations.
Stay tuned!
Best wishes,
Larry
