VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GDX)

The tariffs hurt the U.S. economy, caused the markets to crash, and led to significant market volatility. In this video, I discuss the recent turmoil.

Gold ETFs saw an inflow of 226.5 metric tons worth $21.1 billion in the first quarter, representing the largest quarterly inflow in three years in the first quarter.

Wall Street ended the week on a strong note, with major indices posting their best weekly performance in years, as traders appeared confident that the escalation in the U.S.-China trade war — which led to triple-digit tariff increases on both sides — would be resolved in the near term.

Investors are flocking to gold-backed ETFs as global tensions and uncertainty drive up gold prices. Gold miners also see record demand.

Wall Street bounced back from early losses, driven by upbeat bank earnings and cooler inflation data, while shrugging off trade war concerns.

Stocks were down big on Thursday as investors flocked to the safe haven of gold.

As the wild ride continues in all markets, let's take a look at COMEX gold futures to assess where things stand.

Mining sector hit hard by new tariffs, but analysts expect a V-shaped recovery with potential for significant upside. Top stock and ETF picks.

The U.S. government is fighting another unwinnable war, like fiat money itself is fighting an unwinnable war against gold.

While the market has sectors and factors that are outperforming relative to the market, almost all are grossly oversold on an absolute basis.

U.S. sanctions and Trump’s tariffs are forcing global central banks to ditch U.S. treasuries for gold, the dollar is entering a structural decline, and a coming economic slowdown could pull the S&P 500 down to the low 4,000s.

We discuss downside support targets in gold and silver and in the miners.

As Inflation Bugs sell indiscriminately, the gold mining Macrocosm (of proper macro-fundamentals) is engaged.

Tariffs might be just a trigger that ushers in a raft of pending bad news. The longer this goes on, the deeper the hole those in control dig for the rest of us. Stay away from the edge; the deep hole is fast becoming a bottomless pit.

Gold stocks are increasingly standing out in stock markets slammed by Trump’s massive tariffs.

GDX continues to rally, and the uptrend is still young. 

The value of gold continues to rise. The precious metal has gained 15% this year to date and is up 38% over the last year.

We are revisiting a long-term cycle that we began tracking several years ago. This cycle has been elongated for the same reasons as other cycles/trends over the past couple of years.

Among ETFs with over $1 billion in assets, three funds are leading the pack when it comes to returns in 2025. Precious metals are what they have in common.

Fundamentals for Gold Miners are already strong but could become white hot as inflation adjusted Gold price has broken out of a 45-year-long base.

Gold’s contract volume rolled from April into that for June came +29 points of fresh price premium.

There has been a lot of speculation about whether or not the general stock market has transitioned from a bull to a bear market. My guess is: yes, we have entered a bear market, but I have no proof. I only have a few observations to note.

Interest in gold stocks is really mounting, fueled by gold’s record-shattering monster upleg.

Silver has been weaker than gold.
