Gold and USD up while Oil has a huge swing – Trump moves markets with Tweets
Chris Temple joins us for the market close. We focus on the upward moves of gold while the US Dollar also moved up. This was a great reminder that that inverse relationship between the dollar and gold is not a consistent one. We then move on to the crazy swings we saw in oil.

Trump Tells DHS To Prepare For Border Wall Construction
A newly leaked memo from the Department of Homeland Security suggests that the Trump administration plans to hit the ground running on the construction of that U.S.-Mexico border wall when they move into the White House later this month. Overturning Obama’s immigration-related executive orders, expanding aerial surveillance programs and building more detention facilities also seems to be high on the administration’s priority list.
He has already sent the bill to Mexico……..
Great interview –

“The “Intelligence” briefing on so-called “Russian hacking” was delayed until Fri, perhaps more time needed to build a case. Very strange!”

How Savvy Investors Use Sentiment to Make Fortunes
Bob Moriarty for The Gold Report (1/2/17)
“Bob Moriarty of 321Gold explores how sentiment affects trading in the precious metals markets, and discusses a new service that can help investors gauge sentiment.”
http://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/na/how-savvy-investors-use-sentiment-to-make-fortunes
Site featuring sentiment readings that was referenced in the article from Bob M.
This is a key point. It’s critical to understand investor sentiment and control one’s own emotions in these volatile markets.
Getting a gauge on Sentiment really is a great way to spot turns, when dealing with the emotional mobs of humans and the herd mentality.
$BPGDM is a good sentiment measure for the Gold Miners if anyone on here follows miners:
It looks like sentiment bottomed in Dec of 2016 and we are bouncing out of it…

Good stuff, Excelsior! Thanks Bob M!
Some New Years cheers heading your way Chartster!
Looking forward to making 2017 a great year.
Oil only went down because traders had massive profits and it hit a big round number. USO hit $12 so it was time to sell – a rush for the exits. It is time to buy back.

La Pen wants out of the EU………zerohedge
correction to my french……Le Pen
The GLD:SLV ratio argues in favor of this recent low in gold and miner shares as a trend change–the second rejection, at a lower low, by the 200 SMA looks quite bearish to me.
The lag time between the bottoming of GLD (thick gold line), GDXJ (thin gold line), and GLD:SLV starting to fall was about 2.5 months last year. But they may come closer together now that many more investors are watching more closely.

Trump had effects on GM and Ford with his tweets, too.
