Gold & Silver

We firmly believe that the precious metal prices will rise explosively from the current correction level till 2020 and will far outperform the DOW and related equity markets based on Fourier cycle analysis. As such, gold and silver ought to be the dominant asset class for astute investors right now.

The western world is headed to “a state of disaster” says Alan Greenspan and, “without reform of the financial system, another crisis is certain - sooner rather than later” says Mervyn King, the former head of the Bank of England. Greenspan has already suggested gold as “a good place to put money these days given the policies of governments" while King said recently that "when unexpected things happen, particularly when governments rise and fall, then gold is a means of payment that everyone is always prepared to accept."

Friday’s impressive rally screamed Buy! Now we get to see if the market will deliver on its message of apparent strength.

Gold production across the globe hit an all-time high in 2015, climbing 1.8%, but is expected to level out this year as project development budgets were slashed during the three-year gold bear market. However, with gold prices rebounding, miners are in a good position to be much more profitable. Below, explore and discover the world's top 10 gold producing mines.

The rally in both gold and silver has seen a significant change in market behavior, and these changes are telling the world that the decline from 2011 may have ended.

Do your own research, but based on these charts, 2016 looks like a good time to accumulate more gold for the long term.

Gold is becoming more and more acceptable in the investment community and especially since interest rates have approached zero and in some countries even gone negative. Until recently no portfolio manager would have mentioned gold and even less recommended it but now the investment profession is starting to discover the liquidity trap and acknowledge the value of cash and, more specifically, gold and its place in a diversified portfolio.

It is my view that gold is in the Phase III of its Cup-and-Handle chart formation and the next breakout will bring it to $1,375 level. While It is possible for gold prices to fall below 1,200, or below 1,000 later, as many believe, I see that as unlikely. This may happen only if...

There has been clear change in developing market activity that is favorable for gold and silver, both having the best and strongest recent rally since the 2011 highs. The rallies were also accompanied by the strongest volume increases over the past few years, another positive sign.

Precious metals have posted their best quarter in nearly 30 years and mining stocks are soaring from oversold multi-year lows. Those that were willing to buy when everyone else was selling have been handsomely rewarded in 2016 but we believe the gains are just getting started. In fact, gold would need to climb to somewhere around $3,000 per ounce to match the gains that gold experienced after bouncing from its prior bottoms and silver would need to climb towards $75 per ounce.
