Global Yield Curve, Manufacturing, Services & Trade Growth Trends
The latest trend in the global and domestic economic data is towards a decline in manufacturing, but an increase in services. Manufacturing is highly cyclical, with there having been 2.5 cycles of weakness within this economic business cycle if you count the current bout of weakness as half. The three charts from Haver Analytics show the situation […]
US Dollar Outlook & What It Means For Gold
We do not focus too much on the US dollar because in the big picture Gold usually leads movements in the dollar. As it pertains to the present, Gold’s failure to breakout (while the dollar made two new lows since the summer 2016 peak in Gold) implies that the dollar, at worst is not going […]

WTI Crude Oil The WTI Crude Oil market gained over 3% during the trading session on Tuesday, breaking the vinyl $70 level.

USDCAD Daily Analysis – Wednesday, June 27
USDCAD stays in a trading range between 1.3259 and 1.3381. As long as 1.3259 support holds, the price action in the range could be treated as consolidation for the uptrend from 1.2856 and one more rise towards 1.3450 is still possible after the consolidation. On the downtrend, a breakdown below 1.3259 support would indicate that […]

That’s why bond yields can give us so much insight into what may be coming for the economy. Usually, investors want to get a […]
E The Importance Of Dividends And My Strategy

Source: GuruFocus. Conceptually, dividend payout should be the most direct way of shareholder […]
Gold Down On Firmer Dollar, Technical Selling
Gold prices fell $7.19 an ounce on Tuesday to settle at their lowest level since mid-December as a strengthening dollar fueled downside momentum. Technical selling was also behind the market’s 0.57% decline yesterday. A breach of a key support in the $1261-$1260 area generated more pressure on the market. XAU/USD is currently trading at $1253.30, […]
