"The best place to be is in commodities"

ETF Trends: US Sectors & Groups
Dec 5, 2016

Energy, steel, and banks continue to outperform while Italy is the best performing country ETF of the past week – a surprising outcome given the vote against government reform in the referendum held by Italy over the weekend. Laggards include coffee, Brazil, Turkey, and rate sensitive US Utilities along with other bond proxies and gold.

You did realise that this was a paid advertisement? It had to be with the amount of rubbish in that article. Not saying I am bearish gold at all...but that spiel is all hype.

Thank you Porper.

What interested me was the title of the article:

ETF Trends: US Sectors & Groups
Dec 12, 2016


Oil-related ETFs have paced the pack over the last week with massive gains over the weekend thanks to additional cuts agreed by non-OPEC countries.
Spain, Italy, and Mexico all continue to move higher, while small cap US equities (especially Value) have surged. Biotech, bonds, and gold miners are the worst performers over the past week.

Nexus Identifies High Grade Gold Mineralization at Niangouela

Reports 2,950 g/t Gold and Plans More Drilling



Nexus Gold Corp. TSX-V: NXS, OTC: NXXGF, FSE: N6E announced it has received geochemical results from Actlabs Burkina Faso SARL, an ISO 9001:2008 certified independent lab, from its initial exploration program at the Niangouela Gold Concession located 60 kilometres north of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, West Africa.

The highlights of the program include sample NG005 taken from the primary quartz vein at 46 metres below surface which returned a value of 2,950 g/t gold. In addition, sample NG006 was collected from the artisanal dumps of the sheared intrusive which returned a value of 23.9 g/t gold. These results indicate the presence of high-grade gold occurring within the primary quartz vein and the sheared intrusive envelope. These samples were selected and may not be representative of the mineralization hosted on the concession.

Recent Asset Class Performance — International Markets Bounce
Jan 17, 2017

Outside of the US, many countries have already posted nice gains in 2017. Brazil (EWZ) is up 7.8% YTD after posting a big gain in 2016 as well. Hong Kong (EWH) and Australia (EWA) are both up more than 5%, while Canada (EWC), China (ASHR), India (PIN), and Japan (EWJ) are all up more than 3%. Mexico (EWW) is the only country on our matrix that is down year-to-date, and that follows a very weak Q4 as well.
Looking at commodities, gold (GLD) and silver (SLV) have both gotten off to good starts to 2017, while oil (USO) and natural gas (UNG) are in the red.

Will the "huge gold rally" take place in 2017 ?

I highly doubt it. Obviously, there could be a major virus outbreak or a war but you can't be afraid of monsters under the bed. Trump could start a nuclear war yet but aside from that, a major gold rally is unlikely. Gold rallies can happen temporarily like the terrorist attacks in France but it did not last long before people realise actually that even though it's not cool when people die it doesn't really make much difference economy unless there is a war consequently. Air bombings in the middle east don't really count as a war, unfortunately that is a standard way of life.
 
ETF Trends: US Sectors & Groups – 1/25/17
Jan 25, 2017

Who would have thought that in the week surrounding an executive order pulling out of NAFTA, Mexican equities would dramatically outperform in USD terms? Brazil and Poland have also done well while the homebuilders have been the strongest stocks in the US following very solid existing home sales data yesterday (which we discussed in The Closer last night). On the losing side over the last 5 days, biotech, Pharma, and long-term Treasuries continue to decline. Precious metals and the USD have also declined; interestingly GLD and UUP have identical performance over the last five sessions, an unusual correlation. (Source: Bespoke Investment Group - USA)

Bespoke’s Global Equity Markets Trading Range Screen — Russia Falters
Feb 28, 2017

Learn more about Bespoke’s research and wealth management services.

Below is a look at our trading range screen for the 30 largest country stock market ETFs traded on US exchanges. While nearly all countries remain above their 50-day moving averages, we’ve seen a steady drift lower in most parts of the world over the last week. Even the US (SPY) has ticked lower, but it’s still the most overbought country in the world right now — trading at 2 standard deviations above its 50-DMA.

The country that stands out the most on the screen is Russia (RSX). While Russia is still the best performing country since the election last November, it’s now just barely ahead of the US and Sweden. Over the last week, RSX has moved from trading just above its 50-day to trading well into extreme oversold territory.

Global Equity ETF Performance Since March 1st
Apr 17, 2017

The S&P 500-tracking SPY ETF is down 2.49% since its March 1st high. Below is an updated look at our country ETF trading range screen to highlight how the rest of the world has been trading over this time period. In terms of overbought/oversold levels, 13 of 30 countries remain overbought, while none are oversold. But the US is one of just a few countries trading below their 50-day moving averages (the black vertical “N” line in the screen). Just 5 of 30 countries are down since March 1st, with Brazil (EWZ) down the most followed by the US (-2.49%).
