Gold (blue, RS) v. inverted US real rates (TIP ETF, red, LS).
There's nothing more bullish for gold than rising real rates in a nation that is...
-in fiscal dominance;
-with debt/GDP >120% & deficit/GDP at 6% (& moving higher);
...b/c rising reals accelerates a debt spiral.
Gold mining stocks are the cheapest they've been in 50 years... yet nobody seems to care.
- 10% free cash flow yield
- ~0.8x P/NAV
Despite the pullback in gold, they are still one of the most profitable industries in the S&P 500.
Preparations continue for “changes not seen in 100 years” - a.k.a. for gold to resume its role as the world’s primary/sole reserve asset, as it was pre-1922 Genoa Conference
Gold likely needs to be way higher than $5,000/oz. to resume that role
This is massively bullish for USA
If the US wants CNY to rise v. USD, the US need only let gold rise sharply against USD - for example, see what gold and USDCNY did in 2025 and early 2026.
Allowing gold to rise a lot against USD will also keep 10y UST yields & oil prices contained (again, see 2025.)
#Silver $SI_F UPD
-Aug 2025 projection is pointing to a low around now (pink area is forecast / out of sample)
-40W cycle low is due now (bottom panel) but could be a choppy bottom. Given dollar strength and potential breakout, an up move in metals could be a short lived counter rally with new lows around Oct where we have next 20W cycle low
-Seasonality (middle panel) turning positive next week with July typically being bullish
Cont...
#Oil Update and outlook rest of 2026:
-The 18M cycle which i was expecting mid-Dec 2025 came on time middle panel) and we likely also have 4-5Y cycle low in place so we are very early in the new up cycle.
-We are now due 40W cycle low (it has a bit of wide range with an average length of 228 days). We might take a few weeks to retest/undercut low and fill 67.83 WTI futures gap (Brent gap was already filled)
-Once low forms, I expect next leg up to last into the fall in line with seasonal strength till ~Oct. (Cont...)
Currency traders are excited about the breakout above supposed resistance in the Dollar Index, and the small "non-reportable" traders of US Dollar Index futures are now net long in a big way. This does not usually work out well for them.
IMO talk of interest rate hikes will turn into cuts as Warsh plays the Trump plan as we approach midterms. Liquidity Injections will be needed.
Fireworks are coming and I don't just mean July 4th.

There will be three phases to this gold/silver/miners bull market.
1) Phase 1 (2026): Achieve fair market value. Newmont will reach 15 FCF multiple. Gold target $5500 to $6000.
Currently, we are early in the phase 1 cycle, with Newmont at a 10 FCF multiple, and extremely cheap. Most miners are 50% of their fair market value.
2) Phase 2 (2027): Achieve high valuations. Newmont will reach a 20 FCF multiple. Gold target $6000 to $7000.
3) Phase 3 (2028): Mania valuations. Newmont will reach 25 to 30. Gold target $7000 to $8000.
@calvinfroedge $BPGDM last seen at zero: Q4 2009, Q2 2013, Q4 2014, Q3 2015. The 2009 reading coincided with a major bottom and a massive rally, while the later occurrences produced no sustained upside.
Bitcoin is getting oversold, but over its history the REALLY oversold conditions have come at a deeper deviation below the 200MA. Using PPO with (1, 200) settings lets you see that deviation nicely.
REMINDER -- Development miners are the cheapest they have EVER been compared to large miners.
This ratio cannot go to zero.
This ratio is in a giant 2-decade bottoming pattern.
Bookmark this -- the gains you will make in development miners when this reverts will be silly.
