Overriding the Fundamentals

The desire to smash commodity prices to pave the way for QE3 is now so complete that fundamentals are completely ignored. In a real "market", terrible economic news such as we had this morning would be greeted with a spike in commodity prices as it all but ensures further government efforts to "stimulate" the economy.

http://www.zerohedge.com/article/birthdeath-adjustment-206000

Of course, in the end, this is exactly what is going to happen. In fact, QE isn't even about economic growth anyway, its about funding the federal government while at the same time floating free money to insolvent TBTF primary dealer banks. The lousy U.S. economy just gives political cover and distraction for the Fed to keep the presses humming.

Remember Econ 101...Increasing the supply of an item decreases its value. More dollars equals a less valuable dollar. A declining dollar causes all things denominated in dollars (gold, oil, corn) to rise. The dollar is going to be declining farther with the advent of QE3 so the way must be prepared by smashing commodities first so that they start their next UPleg from a lower point. Thus, the fundamentals are overridden today. The prop desks of the primary dealers are the ones responsible, at the behest of their Fed masters.

Eventually, good defeats evil and truth defeats lies. I see that just in the time it has taken me to type this note, gold has rallied $10. Maybe truth will even win the day today. We'll see. The key may be in watching the POSX. It has now made a complete roundtrip from its "Calvin" bounce last month. The bounce took it to 74. It then rallied to 76+ and now it's back to 74. A move back down through 74 and it will move quickly back toward 73.

Lastly, here's a silver chart for all the other sick, pathetic gamblers such as myself. Frankly, I'm about to give up on silver for a while, even though I did get filled on another July $40 call overnight. The fiat price obtained through action on the Comex is now so disconnected from physical reality that it seems ludicrous to even participate in the nonsense. As we've often discussed here, physical silver is your insurance protection as you seek to preserve your ability to purchase everyday items. Physical gold is your insurance as you seek to preserve your wealth. As the Comex edges closer to default, the price of paper silver set by the Comex will increasingly separate from reality. The simplest strategy is to avoid the Comex, altogether. Do not play their games. Leave the "speculation" up to us lobotomized fools. Just keep stacking your physical and look the other way,

OK, I have lasts of 1542.60 and 35.60. I don't know about you but I'm ready for the weekend to start right now. More later...maybe. It depends on whether or not I go make myself a Bloody Mary. TF

    The Dow Gold Ratio (DGR) is something that has been watched for a long time, so if you do a little homework it's something you can find a lot of long term charts and analysis on it. People have a decent feel for what sort of ranges are involved.

    Basically it's a barometer of paper assets vs hard assets. We are in a cycle right now where money is moving away from paper (the Dow) and toward hard assets (Gold), and thus the DGR steadily dropping.

    This is a long term thing, nothing happens all at once, but DGR watchers are looking for it to eventually drop to something like 2:1 or even 1:1.

    I put the trade on recently because it's been flatlined in the low 8's for too long and I figured it was ready to bust out one way or the other. I figured down, in keeping with the major trend.

    The problem is that it doesn't give you absolute targets. If you anticipate a DGR of 2, it still doesn't tell you if it will be Dow 12000 and Gold 6000, or Dow 3000 and Gold 1500, or Dow 20000 and Gold 10000, or whatever.

  28. @Eric, funny, I woke up this morning (UK time) and we were about 36.20 and although in the red, I as ok..

    Then it tanked... and I thought to myself, only a couple of weeks ago we'd have loved silver to get to 35!

    Just realised as well... I stopped being 36 yesterday and am now 37 years old. Spooky... maybe we'll hit 37 tonight!

    ReplyDelete
  34. You are a good man, Turd. Appreciate your honesty. Sometimes WTFK is the most reasonable response. And when up is down and down is up and sideways is unknown it is best to stay away from the paper. Wish I didn't have any. My good miners have been treated like shop rags.

    At some point, maybe very soon, we'll all have to remember not to lose our sense of outrage at the blatant crime going on lest we become complacent or accepting of the rape and pillage. If we become emotionally drained by the markets and accept manipulation as a way of life we become part of the problem. At the same time, we have to keep our emotions in check.

    This is going to be quite a balancing act... outrage yet cool headed. But we will prevail, as you say, by stacking and by avoiding the traps. When the mining stocks finally reach their (intended by Cartel) bottom, with your help we should see it, know it and back up the truck for an incredible ride up.

    In the meantime (reminding myself), TPTB are in desperation mode. Nothing to do but stay in the game with dry powder and physical.

  36. When is the final date on those July $40 calls. Just wondering how long a time to get above the strick price.

    How can I get the prices on those calls.

    I accidently ran into the option prices on the AGQ stock. I saved it up somewhere.

    On a practical basis how do the AGQ calls compare to the commodity calls.

    Thanks guys. I am trying to get ready to trade. Open to everything right now. Trying to figure out the practical aspects of what I choose.

    For all the ups and downs in this market. I must say one thing. I have to congratulate Turd for being able to hand in there. It seems that the options do limit the risk so that one can hang in there and sleep at night.

    I like the idea of having the time to still bounce back as keeping me in the game.

  41. Too early for me to decide what to carry into the weekend, but what kind of good news surprises are we expecting? Peace and love in the ME? More paper printing to kick the PIIGS' cans down the road? Tiny Tim talking up the dollar with the same credibility as a used car dealer, or Goldman "Wealth Manager" for that matter?

    I think the Eurofolk are buying the shit out of gold right now, so we'll see...

    ReplyDelete
  42. I think the equity markets have seen and digested all the bad news and are ready to move up for some sort of bounce into the weekend on a lower dollar and all this mope (and new "growth-oriented IPOs" --> how ironic the company people are excited about is a coupon company...)

    The move in silver down to 35 was fairly obvious when we got down to 35.6, as ~35 was where all the support was at, not 35.6). Now that we have touched 35 a couple of times this morning (in the height of the EE pressure), I would say that there is more potential for upside from here. I was feeling a bit paranoid going into today, but today I feel more calm as the mining stocks have held up like CHAMPS during all of this downturn. To me, this is showing that the gold and silver market have just taken a detour for now, and will continue their move back up sooner than later.

    Feeling pretty relaxed after a bit of nervousness over the past 3 days.

  44. Good morning all. Time to buy the dips. The rise will come. We just have to work through some scared sellers. Just read this board and you can tell that people are still scared. The scared sellers will run out of bullets soon enough.

    Enter your position in pieces so you can get your feet wet and also so you will be happy if we dip to 1535 and 35.50.

  45. Expect the raids. Sell with your big profits and look to get in post-raid. It's simpler than it sounds.

    Bought @1528 sold @1544 now looking to buy back , possibly around here at 1540, but i expected a raid to drop us to at least 1540 or below.

    Good luck.

    I expect the dollar to crash through to 73 as well. 74.11 was my last target area for some support. Once we fall below there past 74 it is literally over.

    Bad News: Silver is getting kicked around like the redheaded step child (btw- I love redheads, very sexy.)

    Moving forward: Placed a stink bid in for AGQ at $155, getting cash ready for some American Eagles of the Gold and Silver kind. Should be fun buying sales this summer.

  48. @Eric #1:

    The only problem with using the DGR is that the Dow is a moving target. By that I mean that the components change over time. For example, Shittybank and Government Motors were yanked out in 2009, replaced by Travelers and Cisco. AIG was taken out earlier in 2009. These changes have occurred every few years, rendering the index a very unstable means of measurement to compare with something as unchanging as a single troy ounce of gold.

    Further, you have to deal with the fact that the DJIA is a price-weighted index, meaning that higher priced stocks have more weight in determining the direction and magnitude of any changes in the price of the index. A 1% change in price for a $100 stock will have 10x the effect of a 1% change in price for a $10 stock. This points out how the value of the index depends a lot on the politics of whether a company's board decides to split its stock or not - imagine, for example, if Berkshire Hathaway was part of the DJIA (unlikely, I know, but bear with me on this one). Priced at roughly $115,000, it would have nearly 100 times the effect on the index as all of the others combined (with a total price of about $1,600).

    While I understand the simplicity of using such a calculation, I question its validity in predicting anything.

    ReplyDelete
  49. When I say the mining stocks are holding up like champs I mean they are bleeding at more realistic levles rather than the exaggerated everyone dump every stock day after day... there was a stretch where I lost ~30% in a week... this is at least within realm of "normal." The drop in the past 3 days was very limited for the negative sentiment that has creeped back into the PM sector (for now).

  55. @LevelHeaded

    Gotta disagree with you, this looks like a long term downtrend, there's absolutely no good economic news out there, and most of the retail trade does not see the PMs as a "safe haven", it's just another asset class to trade. So retail will flee the PMs just like they are fleeing the stock market.

    Short term we will see spikes here and there but IMHO everything goes down until QE3 or a 2008 type bottom.

    i highly doubt a 2008 bottom. when it happened the feds were shocked. had they known it could have dropped that far they wouldn't have let it happen.

    say what u want about the feds (i agree they are nuts) but a spy of 666 will psychologically destroy the masses much more than a devalued dollar will. at the end of the day, devalued dollar is worse (for our own personal good) but vast majority of people see it when the market drops but have no clue what inflation is...

  73. "Remember Econ 101...Increasing the supply of an item decreases its value. More dollars equals a less valuable dollar.

    Turd, here lies the danger:
    the raised prices are not really a consequence of rising demand due to a booming economy, but are also liquidity driven.
    In this debt-slavery-system, every one's Dollar surplus is one's Dollar deficit. So what happens, if the economy's growth can compete with the demand of the debt?
    Liquidity shrinks. Prices tend to go lower.

    I don't want to say, that QE3 will not come, but i want to raise attention to the possible outcome at the end of QE2, that liquidity could shrink and prices could come under pressure.

    Ofcourse, the fundamentals are intact, but Siver is an extremely volatile commodity. So only a week of growing demand for liquidity in the investment-sector, could massacre prices.

    BTW: i'm long myself in Ag, but i'm ready to get out, if margin calls would force liquidations in the commodity sector.

    the screwing stopped for me yesterday morning when I exited all silve positions except short EXK. I am now trading gold until silver calms down.

    I think the euro could go to 150 to 160.
    That is going to make QE III a little harder to do but it will still happen. (but when)

    I am comfortable long gold over the weekend as long as it does not take out 1520 today or the daily stochastic drops below 80. Getting out of dodge if either of those happen today.

    It's the Fear/Greed mix, or Flight/Fight instinct... we are programmed to run when things look scary, and dive it when it looks good. While this served us well in evolutionary terms, you have to supress or even reverse the interpretation of those feelings to trade stocks.... tough to do. Can't say I'm good at it myself. Right now things look bad, but not bad enough that I think I should buy... I'm waiting for the "fetal postion sucking thumb" bad economy and market, and then it's full on... ;-)

  99. @sockeye: maybe develop a disciplined trading strategy? One way to avoid the nerves of over-committing to dips would be to wait for the moving averages to align to the upside. Try using a 10/20/30 MA on a chart on a 30 minute chart and wait for the fan to properly align to the upside, then buy the dip when price retests the 10 MA. This is not a secret nor is it the 'keys to the kingdom'. Perhaps just a way for you to feel more comfortable re. your entries...

  100. Re: the dow to gold ratio...here's some interesting math:

    Ratio peaked at 10 in early 1920's and bottomed at 2.0 in the 1930s. Ratio peaked at 27 in late 1960's and bottomed at 1.0 in 1980.

    So, 18/2 = 9 and 27/1 = 27. Follow me here, 27/9 = 3. So to figure out where the next DGR will end we will use "3".

    Here goes....DGR peaked at 44 around 2000. So, 27 ( last peak ) X 3 = 84. Now,
    44/84 = 0.54

    Makes perfect sense. First DGR bottomed at 2.0, next one bottomed at 1.0....and using this formula...which is just finding a numerical relationship....the next one is projected at half again....0.5. Now wouldn't that be nice?

    does the chart tell you anything?

    I know, should have taken money off table prior- inexperienced at trading, everything I've bought I still own, starting buying stocks for past year and a 1/2 after I felt I had a good physical position.....I know nothing about charts, and didn't
    do any in depth research, just was looking at the big picture (example - I bought SLW at $14 and at the time didn't even understand what they did, dummy) - but now I have a lot of freetime on my hands and plan on taking profits off the table and playing bit of swing trading

    any insight or thoughts would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

    Not specifically familiar with any of those, but the overriding rule on these things is that if you get a nice gain you MUST take some off the table. At least SOME, maybe ALL.

    I know it's incredibly hard to do. It's easy to fall in love with a story and think "I'll just keep holding forever and get a 10 bagger or a 100 bagger and this will be the lottery ticket that solves all my problems, yada yada yada." BUT, seriously that hardly ever happens. The odds are hugely against it.

    If you bought some at .75 and now it's 3.50, take some off. I don't care if it was 5.

    That's my 2 cents.

    I am not familiar with the company you mention but that does not matter. first it is doing well so because we are at the beginning of a huge bull market you should hold on until this market gets much much higher.

    I am in favor of holding all mining stocks for the long term. The hard trick is to find good ones that go up. YOu seem to have a winner.

    The ocrrect way to trade is to hold on to the winners and get rid of the losers.

    I would consider buying more.

    Unless you are buying for a short term scalp, I think we are going to see lot's lower than 35$ silver... a week or so of losing a percent a day on the stock market will suck the money out of everything (with the high margin rates, any kind of a downturn may turn in to a rout, as folks have to satisfy margin calls or save what little cash they have left). I think we have days or weeks to a really solid silver bottom, and as soon as I uncurl from the fetal position I'll pull my thumb out of my mouth and buy, buy, buy.... ;-)

  128. @drachma,

    It's a valid point you raise. I think (big assumption) that many here hold a physical position, and therefor feel comfortable wagering some of their fiat around that core position. I think Turd has demonstrated that you can profit from the manipulation if you use unconventional methods by tracking the trading patterns of the banks, then trade off their shorts at critical support areas. That's a strategy- not a 100% positive return. You may complicate that approach by leveraging your account with time-sensitive options. I think many people over leverage themselves with calls, but Turd is not in a position to tell anyone how to manage their risk.

  142. Bill Downey's comments on silver this morning:

    SILVER MUST CLOSE ABOVE 36.50 to take downside pressure off. In summary ---- silver has more pressure than gold due to industrial use ----- the STOCK market NUMBER to watch is 1289 on the S&P ----- if they break that --- the pressure will be on. Its best to be patient before jumping in silver ----esp with the weekend here. A close above 36.50 will take some pressure off.

    Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I understand the motivation. What I am concerned about either way is that, if we want to end this game sooner rather than later, we should just stop feeding the beast entirely. At the very least, I would hope that players herein, even if reluctantly in the game, would not play on leverage. With all due respect, whether we like to admit it or not, the greed monster is palpable, even on this site. And if the argument is made that we must make a living somehow with our fiat, well to those I would say, get out and get your hands dirty rather than churn paper in hopes of salvation.

  156. @Fort & atlee

    Thanks for mentioning DGP, I had not looked at it before. I agree, atlee, I "feel" there is a lot of upside potential in gold. Silver, might go to Turd's June upside of 42 or, just as likely, to Martin Armstrong's downside in the mid-20's. It will come roaring back sometime this year, but I can't ride it down any further right now.

    @All - Yesterday I made a firm statement that I was sticking to Turd's roadmap for June, and staying long JUL SLV options. This morning I woke up thinking I would reverse that stance. I was thinking what to say in my post to this board, only to find when I finally got here that the general sentiment, including our leader's, was pretty much the same as mine.

    The only reason I post my thoughts is because I suspect that I am articulating what many others are also thinking about and maybe that helps them. So, in the interest of honesty let me say that I will NOT be long silver options after today's close. I have already liquidated half my SLV contracts. Held my nose and took losses I didn't want to take. But, I don't play with money I can't afford to lose and I still have money in my trading account. Maybe it will go to DGP, or GLD or DBO calls. I'll make that decision for next week. Getting out today and taking the weekend off.

    One last point. I have said before I like James Arthur Ray's concept of "harmonic wealth". That is, there are five categories of wealth: Spiritual, Physical (health), Intellectual, Relationships, and Financial. I find that I derive benefits in all five of these areas from this blog. However, being a highly focused individual, it is very hard for me to pay adequate attention to more than one thing at a time. I think for now I need to back off from financial wealth management a little so I can focus more on some of my other "accounts". My daughter is getting married next month and my wife is very focused on that event. I need to be also. I am also starting a new consulting contract in a couple weeks, and there will be new relationships and intellectual challenges to be handled. It's all good! Don't want to shortchange any of it.

    So, I am jumping off the "silver bull ride" for a time. The new contract gives me additional cash flow that can go to stacking physical and accumulating miner other stocks. I'll do my options trading on something more predictable and sedate than silver for the next 2-3 months.

    Not that it is important what I chose to do, but perhaps this will be helpful to someone else.

In the carnival, as we have seen, social hierarchies of everyday life—their solemnities and pieties and etiquettes, as well as all ready-made truths—are profaned and overturned by normally suppressed voices and energies. Thus, fools become wise, kings become beggars; opposites are mingled (fact and fantasy, heaven and hell).

And how many would look like fools if it developed that Ahmadinejad had no more nuclear weapons than Saddam Hussein did when we invaded Iraq? Even assuming that the President owes Netanyahu an explanation of what he's prepared to do if Tehran doesn't buckle under to economic sanctions, he owes Romney and company absolutely nothing. And if certain American Jews and evangelicals value Israel's security even above that of the U.S. they're not owed even the time of day.

  179. psi stampshomes for sale in tucsont's a telling phrase. The hearts of Republican Party voters haven't been behind him. Despite support from Republicans on Wall Street and many leading party figures, pollsters and party insiders suggest Romney hasn't attracted passionate or widespread support from many ordinary Republicans.
    Romney isn't just a Harvard-educated millionaire, he is seen as a political moderate. He struggles to connect with Republicans of conservative instincts or modest means.

Apple is all about name recognition and marketing. The Wifi only feature is exactly what I was looking for. Not going to have kids running up their data plans downloading movies while sitting in the cafeteria at school.

  182. vestido de noviaCatering AtlantaVery few people have actually run a business that makes payroll. If they did they would know that making payroll more often than not involves loans, which come from banks. And if banks close revolving lines of credit because there's too much hoarding and fear going around, then the economy collapses. Sales do not make it to payroll until months, even a year later in a business. Every business worth anything extends credit, do-not-pay for six months or a year, and so on. Every business worth anything provides services first then asks for money later. But in between, employees have to be paid. If the banks don't lend, even money making business goes bankrupt.
