Tactical Volatility Range Gold Notes
- Gold continues to rally, but price action is becoming significant over extended by nearing a three sigma price move. Volume in gold futures remain positive and above the 20-day average.
- IAU and GLD will continue to play off of UUP’s under-performance. The dollar will continue to see downward pressure if U.S.-China trade relations continue to stall.
- Taking the fundamentals in the dollar, cross-market analysis suggesting “coordinated global growth” is stagnating.
- Industrial/Base metals, as long as Chinese yields, are firmly in a downtrend. If China slows, global inflation worries will continue to subside. Platinum and palladium (and copper) continue lag gold and silver.
- Gold miners likely to under-perform gold pricing as volume does not look constructive at the top end of the tacvol range.
- Broader equity markets are heavily oversold, and we’ve been bearish over the last week. At a -2.7 sigma for the SPX, it would not be wise to not cover portion of shorts. Whether the a trend inflection is set is not yet established.
