Gold Needs to Shine Quickly
If Gold’s Investor Cycle Low were behind us, then this would be one weak and lifeless 1st Daily Cycle. Typically the rally after a bloodbath Investor Cycle Low is impressive enough where you just know it’s a 1st Daily Cycle. It doesn’t necessarily need to be a V like rally, but in general you should see broad buying day after day and strong daily closes. By Day 10, a 1st Daily Cycle has typically gone a long way to recovering much of the previous drop, but here gold has barely made a dent into recovering any.
So to this point gold has not shown any of the strength that has me thinking this is a 1st Daily Cycle. I have been a little patient on the Cycle because the dollar was soaring, so I have waited for the dollar to drop to see if gold released quickly to the upside. Today was that day for gold and unfortunately the dollar’s plunge did not equate into a broad precious metal sector rally. Again as I observed over the weekend, silver and the miners were both flat again today. This indicates that there just isn’t any meaningful interest in this sector yet.
