Gold Jumps Back Above 200DMA As USDJPY & Stocks Continue Slide

Tyler Durden's picture




 

The weekend's re-escalation in Ukraine has sent gold popping $10 (and back above its 200DMA) and FX carry (and thus US equities) sliding in the early overnight trading. With Japan out (and Europe set for another holiday) volume are, and will likely remain, low. Critically, USDJPY is back under 102, even as Japan's central bank governor proclaims:

  • *KURODA SAYS PRIVATE ECONONISTS UNDERESTIMATE JAPAN, CNBC SAYS (but the government ones are nailing it)

Which means Nikkei futures are also lower - down over 300 points from Friday's highs (and Chinese stocks are falling on the back another weak PMI print). Treasury futures are bid suggest 2bps more yield compression back below Friday's low yields at 2.57% for the 10Y.

 

USDJPY and therefore US equities are fading (back under 102) - this is USDJPY's lowest level in over 2 weeks.

 

Gold is jumping back over $1300 and its 200DMA...

 

Treasury Futures are also well bid...

Just continue to back up the truck next to the Banksters on the loading dock and load up like they do whenever the shiny goes on sale.

And when, shortly, there is a "Truce" in the proxy war, Gold will again get hammered down by The Certel with naked short paper. They don't care how much Fiat they loose because The Fed will just print more....

CB's just continue to put GLD on sale with their market manipulations ... and as long as they do so ... buy.  Physical Bitchez.

Yes, but gold when you can (as able).  Eventually, but I have given trying to predict when we will win, and they (banksters) will lose.

Everyone should strive to have 5% + in physical gold.  The single best diversification there is.

***

On the other hand, a $6.00 and change uptick  is not a big move at all.  That's OK, more time to buy.

Gold or silver. Right now, in terms of fiat, silver is a better value.

Just sold short 3X Sept. JPY @ .009819. as this goes down it represents a cheaper Yen. I like Kyle Bass as a financial guru better than BofA. Kyle says the Yen will go to 115 by Christmas Time. Timing is notoriously inaccurate in these kinds of analysis. But all the factors are in place for further devaluation in the Yen/usd cross. all this talk about a magic 102 level is just bloviating.

Or the gold paper document can be stored in a Ukrainian bank burning ceremony. Hidden in a shoe box in a back closet without a working fire sprinkler. Your correct, passing down a box of ashes to future generations.

DAX futures are currently up + Majority of Europe, and US futures flat, while Gold moves up, no sell off whatsoever except HK...unreal Draghi comes to the rescue Hopium stance being taken, and that Ukraine will quietly kiss and make up....expect Gold to smacked back down to $1300 and Oil swiftly placed back below $100 anytime soon?...until it doesn't I guess

I know right?  "short the pound against the dollar" they said, "it will be fun" they said.  pffft, bloody wankers and their appreciating currency.  Didn't anyone ever tell them inflation is good?  Is Greenspans book tour going to Britain?  He can set em straight.

In the past few years my situation has changed so much. I was recently considering the unthinkable, selling some of my gold before it gets back to my "break even" price let alone goes through the roof. Then I remembered what I used to say before I (temporarily) got so far ahead of the game and comfortable (a situation which is now way back in the rear-view mirror). That being... Fuck the banksters!!! I'll live under a fucking bridge before I sell an ounce of my gold while it's still being suppressed!

50% retracement was around 1280 so it was due for a bounce.  I still think gold is going substantially lower in the medium term and its not at buy with both hands levels for me at least.  I think the ultimate cyclical bottom for gold before it goes straight to the moon will be around 1000 in the next year or so.   However I do have small leaps call diagonal positions on in silver and miners for moral support mostly and of course as a small hedge against dollars.  

 

As for the spoos, BTFD, you know we will be green by the cash open if not sooner.

Hey hey, don't talk so badly about Italy. It's a country with a big cultural heritage, they have some substantial olive oil exports from the south of the country and the weather is mostly good, like in Greece, which is also recovering at a fast pace. And Renzi just cut the GDP growth forecast from 1% to 0.8% for 2014 (bullish!) and the debt to GDP ratio should be significantly reduced to 129.8% in 2016 from 133.3% in 2015. So all is good! I'd also buy some Italian bonds if I had some money.

Maybe it's bullish because sluggish employment figures were weather related?
