Additionally, the white line comparing Gold vs. S&P 500 indicates a potential turnaround after a prolonged period of underperformance. Could the recent outperformance by gold signify the start of...

Legendary investor Bernard Baruch once said, “Show me the chart, and I’ll tell you the news.” That timeless wisdom still applies – markets often signal economic shifts before the headlines do. Here’s what stocks, bonds, gold, and Bitcoin are hinting at right now:
Stocks: The S&P 500 looks pressured, suggesting a potential slowdown in earnings, economic growth, and rising unemployment.
Bonds: U.S. Treasurys are rallying, signaling lower inflation expectation...

The 2s10s curve ended the day around the zero level for the first time in the last 2 years. We briefly traded in positive territory yesterday but haven't closed above zero since July 2022. This is the longest ever inversion for the 2s10s curve in available data stretching back well over 60 years.
Given that inversions have historically been a leading indicator of recessions, the re-steepening has previously led to suggestions tha...

“If you don't own gold you know neither history nor economics” - Ray Dalio Stocks are having a great year, but gold, which recently hit an all-time high of $2,500 an ounce +40% YTD, is doing even better.
The rally is partly due to:
- a weaker dollar,
- lower real interest rates,
- rising global uncertainty.
