Are You Guys Watching This?

 

No, Not That

___________________________________

We’ve been talking about gold knocking da boots all through the summer and largely ignoring the August of Despair the lot of you have been whinging about for the better part of six weeks.   And, it is treu (sic) that Jake favourite (sic) ANV has been rocking the world since that bounce off the 200 day EMA ($16.00), closing today up well over 50%  from there at $24.48.    Sure, IAG and EGO have been ripping nicely along as well since that call.

But let me take a second to talk about the next best thing that you may be able to get some anticipatory positioning for…  And no, I don’t mean Christina… she’s already big.

I’m talking about gold’s stealthy, if annoying cousin, silver… which has been making silent steps in the last few weeks to join it’s more yellowy cousin.   Take a look at this recent medium term breakout in the metal price —

It’s a little overbought on the daily chart, but there’s more room to launch on the weekly, as you can see.   Now let’s look at a junior silver I like — EXK — which has been moving nicely recently as well.  Note, it has a similar “intermediate” target:

What’s nice about both of these is that we’ve got a nice “short term play” for you OTB degenerate gamblers, and also a very clear — and approaching — big time breakout opportunity.

It’s gonna be a great Fall for gold and silver ladies and germs… let’s watch the goalposts here to trade appropriately.

Christina had a great day today, as earlier tallied.   She still loves SLW the best of all the silvers, but PAAS and even SSRI looked good today along with friend EXK.  

Our new theme epigraph — Get gilded, or be gelded.

Best to you all.

“Buy Stocks, My Plebs!”

I ran into CH (that’s what I call her, “CH” — we’re buds) at the perfume counter at Bergdorf’s and she said “fugheddaboud the gold and the silver stocks for now, Jake, go out and get you some high beta stocks. Now, ged OUD dah heah!”

That vocal coach has done wonders with her Joisey accent, no?

CREE, VECO, SQM, POWR, TIE and, most of all, ENTR are all on my radar screen for tomorrow.

Slainte.

Coupled With an Egregious Loss of Dignity

__________________________________

SLW was up 25% this past August.  You’re welcome, any time. 

I expect we’ll see a bit of consolidation in the PM names into early September, perhaps even coincident with a pullback in TLT, our nemesis.

Then again with the action in ANV today, that might just not happen at all.  I hope, however, that it will, as I would like to add a bit more ANV before that behemoth continues to roll on.  Remember what I said about how powerful that stock was off a touch of the 200-day EMA?  That was back below $16 a share, less than six weeks ago, and today she hit $24.50 before backing off to a dollar lower than that. 

Now futures are raring up in a wholly unexpected September first blastoff.  I mean who could have thought all that low volume selling on Monday could have been big money positioning? 

Right? 

PM’s may rest here, but I’m thinking ANDE and SQM — two recent mentions, along with old Jacksonian friends TC and TCK, will offer plenty of fun-haus trading for those so inclined tomorrow.   Dollars to doughnuts, our friend earl starts launching again tomorrow.   I may partake in some eeeevil ERX as a result.

For the adventurous, it looks like CREE and VECO are ready to “POWR” up one more time.  Or you can go equally nuts with Triple Sec Russell play, TNA.

My best to you and your Boomer parents.   Well, kind of.

Breaking Footage from the new iBC documentary: “Perdy: The Origins”

________________________________________

Do you think it will just be silver and gold that will go dotty when the dollar implodes?  Let me disabuse you.  It will not be so.  It will also be platinum and palladium, petroleum and berillium, cadmium and radium, even guar gum and Bubble Yum will be breaking out.

Better yet, there will be a metal that shines like silver, mines like gold, and — as a bonus– makes the urinal shadows go away even faster than a pack and a half of Kools and a cold cold Olde English 800. 

That metal is lithium and it’s “rare earth.”   Not only is it great for curing insanity, but it’s almost as famous for powering cell phones, stock trading robots and small chassis time machines.   What a versatile mineral, and our friends down at the Sociedad de San Paulo own it in abundance. 

Let us give alms to SQM, then,  as it consolidates that move above it’s all important 61.8% fibonacci support line.   Let also that line be your guide for closing out your investment.   The targets are just as clear in the near term.   The weekly chart reveals:

My best bet is to wait for the break at $43.87, but then, I already own this name, so I would just be adding.   You make your own choice, you’re old enough for that now, no?  Beware the slightly overbought condition, and have patience.  You will be rewarded, I’ve no doubt.

If you can’t bear to keep away from the precious medallions markets, then GSS, RBY, BAA and EXK are four smaller friends that you could look at in a small way, on a small scale, with a small cheese wedge lodged in your wallet to prevent excess de-levering.   All show some promise and may continue…

Best to you all, and gute Nacht.

This was quite a weekend for America, non?   First, Monsieur Le Docteur goes bi-Coastal (with an assist from Chuck Bennet no less) and  then the Dog Sledder and the Weeper gather the First Forces of November in the honored grass of the Washington Mall.   Is that a horn sounding a call?

I think such portents give whiff to the aether of foreborn change in the air.  Real change this time, not the kind of People Magazine re-worked hopeless Boomer generation failures we’ve witnessed since Pelosi and Reid took over in 2006.   Nor even the false “change” so reinforced by the JC Penny-ad First Vacationer and his bent dicta.   No, we’re talking a serious colon cleanse for the body politic, ovah heah…

We’re talking throw all the bastids out, and shrink that Gummymint that’s here to help you.   Here’s a song that might capture the moment, in all it’s paradoxical beauty…

God preserve the Union, and each of you in turn.   Most of all, welcome back to stable ground, Monsieur Le Docteur.

The Techno Classic

___________________

It’s late and I just got home.  Burning the candle on both ends is probably not the best idea for your trusty Jacksonian surveyor, but I think we are coming into a critical period that may require some re-enforcement for loyal plebs seeking to make sense of this dollar killing precious metal market.  Therefore I post…

Silver is beginning to make great stirrings in the market and in the loins of pit traders across the globe.  Interestingly, the metal is still lagging some of it’s more accurate pre-indicators, specifically, it’s publicly traded miners.   Among the finest is that of SLW, whose weekly chart reveals that it has broken to new highs:

It appears SLW is just now breaking out to new highs in the weekly, and may have some runway left, stochastically speaking, even as it approaches oversold conditions.

The underlying metal, however, illustrated here in the guise of the widely held ETF,  SLV, seems to have much more potential momentum in front of it.   Look at this weekly:

 

In short, I would not be short silver or the miners here, and I would be looking at those resistance lines as a key to my adding regimen.   If the above lines are broken, then I believe the remainder of the silver miners will begin to show the same kind of new high action we are seeing in the high quality SLW right now.

Again, to reiterate, I am talking about PAAS, EXK, MVG, SSRI and even CDE and HL here.  Watch these in conjunction with the chart above and with Papa SLW, who will continue to lead the way.

My best to you and your mithril mail shirt assembly’ing.
