Craig Hemke – Slogging Through This Precious Metals Correction

Craig Hemke, Founder and Editor of TF Metals Report, joins us to discuss his technical and fundamental outlook for the precious metals sector, as they correct into the sideways slog of this seasonally slow time of year.  We discuss that even though sentiment isn’t great, that overall gold and silver have actually done reasonably well in light of all the macroeconomic factors thrown at the markets over the last few years, and also year-to-date. It is really the underperformance of the PM mining stocks that have weighed more heavily on sentiment, but Craig is still optimistic that we’ll see that change later in the year as the metals break out of this trading range to higher levels.   When pondering what will get more generalist investors to focus part of their capital in this sector; he reiterates that it should be the gradual loss of faith in central banks as their policies waffle from loosening to tightening over and over again, without reaching their stated goals.

    Sentiment Speaks: Silver May Explode

    Avi Gilburt – May 16, 2023

    “So, back in January, I provided my latest assessment of the gold market, with an expectation for gold to rally to the $2,428 region in this current move off the early November low. I also noted that we can certainly even blow through that, depending upon the extensions we see in the upcoming rally, but that target was a solid one for now. Clearly, I will reassess the target once the next bullish phase begins in earnest.”

    “And, then in April, I outlined my expectation for the metals market to begin its next rally to the $2,200-plus region. My expectation was that a break-out through $2,075 would trigger that next bigger move. Yet, while the market spiked to $2,085 in early May, I warned members of ElliottWaveTrader that the structure of that move did not look like it was starting that rally to $2,200 just yet, and I expected more of a pullback. So, while the market did spike through $2,075, it clearly was not able to sustain that rally, as we expected, and it immediately spiked back down below.”

    “At this time, I’m still expecting a fast and strong rally to $2,200-plus in the coming months. And a break-out over $2,085 will likely now be the trigger.”

    “But silver is providing to us a relatively low risk buying opportunity as it’s setting up to see a very strong upside follow through when this pullback completes.”

    “To keep it very simple, we have been outlining to the members our expectation for the pullback we’re now seeing in silver, and it’s now striking our general target region for this expected pullback. As long as silver holds over $22.50, I’m expecting this pullback to complete over the coming week or two and set us up for a strong rally which should be pointing us north of 27 rather quickly.”

      Americans’ approval of gold as best long-term investment doubles from last year, says Gallup survey

      Anna Golubova – Kitco – May 11, 2023

      “Gold is catching up to real estate as the best long-term investment, with American investors’ perceptions shifting due to higher interest rates and increased stock market uncertainty. The number one preferred long-term investment asset remained real estate, but it dropped significantly from last year’s record-high approval of 45% down to 34% in 2023, according to the latest Gallup poll.”

      “The view that gold is the best long-term investment jumped from 15% in 2022 to 26% — the highest levels since 2012. Gold has overtaken stocks as the second-most preferred investment and has come close to the number one spot, with more than a quarter of Americans viewing gold as the best long play.”

      “Gold tends to be the beneficiary when confidence levels in both real estate and stocks are down. This is typically during times of economic recession or uncertainty, as happened around the time of the Great Recession, and is happening again today,” Gallup said.
