This morning, I'm going to focus on a single issue. Post election, like many of you, I have been surprised at the reaction in precious metals and the miners. The conventional wisdom was that a Trump victory would mean "lower stock prices and higher gold prices"...and of course we've seen just the opposite...
Read MoreWe’re back at it with a full plate of events and news…and what promises to be a very busy end of the year in the markets.Over the last two December-January periods, the VRA has produced “focused” VRA Alert Trades…where I outlined clearly and specifically, exactly what to do.
Read MoreGood Wednesday morning all. Like many of you, before last year, I was never a Donald Trump fan. Never watched The Apprentice. Never purchased Trump Vodka or Trump steaks. But that was then. I have since come to have a great deal of love/respect for this man...love for his courage...love for his strength...and how could we not?
Read MoreIn previous VRA Updates, I've covered the MSM and their "official" reason for the sell-off in precious metals and the miners. Hint: their "fear" is higher interest rates...a subject we have addressed from all sides in the past...and a subject we have completely debunked, in the past.
Read MoreIf you’re like me, and if you’ve become sick and tired…jaded really…about Janet Yellen’s FED meetings, then you’re also joining more than 80% of all investors in the stock market that have come to distrust the FED and their constant threats of a “FED rate hike”.
Read MoreHeads up: Tomorrow (Friday) I will be appearing on two radio shows. The first is 11:15 AM EST, on the Sam Sorbo Show, which is syndicated nationally on TRN (Talk Radio Network).Then, also tomorrow, I will be on Wayne Root's radio show (790 AM, Las Vegas. 790talknow.com ) at 8:20 PM EST.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. The streak of seven consecutive down days for the Dow Jones came to a close yesterday with an average gain of .27% in the Dow and S&P 500. Once again, in the investment theme that we have adopted here at the VRA,
Read MoreLet’s get this out of the way, right away; US markets are now trading at 98% overbought (based on VRA Momentum Indicators). This is most typically when bad things happen to stock markets…but folks, this market has proven the shorts wrong time and again…and we know why:
Read MoreGood Friday morning all. What a week! Brexit scared the sh*t out of the markets, but our friendly neighborhood central bankers were standing by to manipulate stocks AND bonds higher. Wow...just...wow.
Read MoreBy now you've probably already heard, more than $3 trillion in global stock market losses took place over the last two trading sessions. An all time record, for back-to-back trading sessions. This morning, let's put these global losses in perspective...but not just from the last 2 days..
Read MoreAs it turns out, Mohammed Ali is not the only one that can shock the world. Our faith in the "possible" has been restored...maybe the little guy DOES have a shot, after all.As I live tweeted the emerging victory for #Leave, with each city reporting their vote totals, it began to become more…
Read MoreFollowing my "Fix is In" VRA Update from last month, along with my consistent theme over the last...however many years...that "the establishment wins...big government wins", recent events might just be forcing me to change my stance. Two major events may be in the process of changing everything.
Read MoreThere's an old saying that you've no doubt heard before; "if it walks like a duck and if it quacks like a duck...then...it's a duck." After mentioning this distinct possibility here in the VRA more than a few times, its time for me to call this particular duck out...folks, the FIX IS IN.
Read MoreGood Monday morning all. If you're like me, you never own enough of an investment when it soars higher and you always own too much of an investment when it crashes lower. This is absolutely the case with mining stocks today...specifically the 600% gains in NUGT (3 x mining ETF) over just the last 3 months.
Read MoreBefore we get to the most bullish sector in the market, here's a link to my recent radio interview. I explain the 3 biggest risks in the markets today, and why central bank insanity is driving money into precious metals.
Read MoreDon't Fight the Tape...Don't Fight the FED. Anyone that's been with the VRA for a while knows that this is an investing rule that I live by. Following FED Chair Janet Yellen's high profile speech yesterday to the New York Economic Club, it's time to take a fresh look at one of my cardinal rules of investing.
Read MoreGood Sunday everyone. I received two great questions this week...perfect for this VRA Update. Plus, I'm including specific index price targets for a sharp reversal lower (and yes, it's fast approaching). Question One (Bill in TX): I enjoyed reading your "Professional Short Sellers" update for technical levels to watch for a reversal.
Read MoreGood Wednesday all. It was an honor being Wayne's first guest on his new radio show last night. VRA Subscriber (Phil T) even jumped out with the first question for Wayne....plus a very nice plug for the VRA. Thanks Wayne and thanks Phil! I'll be joining Wayne frequently going forward and like last night, no target is off limits.
Read MoreGood Friday morning all. The employment report just released was a big miss from expectations. We're told that 151,000 new jobs added, while the estimate was in the 190,000 range. As I said yesterday, this report will not change anything...even though the public will see the new shiny official unemployment rate of just 4.9%,
Read MoreSince we're all friends here I can speak honestly. I'm either going crazy or the whole of Wall Street is badly missing the risk that is the Zika virus. I know, I know...the uproar over the Ebola virus was short-lived and it didn't really hurt the stock market.
