FREAKY FRIDAY AGAIN DUET…… 🙂
or THUNDER AND LIGHTING… lol
OOPS……………… $2171……. gold looking good……. central banks are the buyers according to Peter S…
I certainly wouldn’t call this a breakout yet… enter JX15 in your stock screener and you will see the material index inside of the TSX.v. It has moved but not much, probably only Canadian brokerages can see it.
sure looks like negative divergence between gold and miners…day is young though…..gdx is at major horizontal mid oscillation resistance…so it must build some accumulation to break out…imho
Jerome Powell Says Fed on Track to Cut Rates This Year
Fed chair characterizes last year’s inflation slowdown as notable and widespread
By Nick Timiraos & Andrew Ackerman – March 6, 2024
“Brisk inflation and hiring data in January haven’t altered the Federal Reserve’s expectation that it will be appropriate to cut interest rates later this year, but Chair Jerome Powell said officials want more evidence that inflation is slowing.”
“Rate cuts won’t be warranted until officials have ‘gained greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainably’ toward the central bank’s 2% goal, Powell told the House Financial Services Committee on Wednesday during the start of two days of testimony on Capitol Hill.”
