Industrial users get it. Investors in PGM ETFs get it. Shouldn't you go get it too? Palladium is an investment option with absolutely tremendous potential. Here's why.

We are of the opinion that the miners and explorers (and their indexes GDX and GDXJ} should be "swapped" for the precious metals - gold, silver, and their proxies (GLD and SLV). This way investors will maintain exposure to precious metals while reducing their exposure to the more volatile miners as some of the share dilution and recent investor exuberance play out - and at least hedge themselves if the price continues to rise.

Since the start of June, typically the worst month for precious metals when looking at seasonal charts, gold is up $75 or 6% and silver is up over $2 or 11% while many of the mining stocks that we track are up 30% or more in the past 3 weeks. Prices normally start to gain momentum after June and close the year very strongly so, while a pullback tomorrow would not be surprising, I believe the trend will be towards higher prices for the remainder of the year.

The short-term outlook for gold is promising. However, with the golds having moved so far so fast, they are a little extended here. I would like to wait for more conclusive evidence of upside breakouts before jumping on the gold bull story. Let me explain why I hold that view

The charts below make it crystal clear that we are on the verge of a major bull market advance across the PM sector. While these charts are for the Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF, what happens to the GDXJ has major implications for the whole sector, for the simple reason that it is not going up without the entire sector going up too.

Get ready for an incredible bounce higher in the gold & silver junior miner sector. Here are five reasons why.

Before this great financial crisis ever comes to a close, you'll see the Federal Reserve copy Europe and also implement negative deposit rates to try and get commercial banks to lend money into the economy. I have absolutely no doubt about it - and it will have three chief consequences for the markets. Let me explain.

Gold and silver have been all over the map in 2014. To figure out what’s next for the metals this article assesses their deep and long term status as speculative assets and the relationship between the two metals and determines what must happen to reverse their continuing decline. Read on!
