Today, we’re sharing an important update from WealthResearchGroup.com, which is paramount for understanding what comes next:
Since the November 3rd elections, the dollar has been pushed to a corner that is actually a double-edged sword for gold. Because of the anticipation that a super-weak dollar will cause bond yields to rise, gold has become weak, right alongside the dollar. This correlation has been recently cut off.
From November 6th, when Pfizer’s announcement altered the way investors priced in Covid-19 risk of bankruptcy for pandemic victim sectors – reasoning that with a vaccine far fewer companies will go under – the dollar has sold off hard, gold has crashed to below its 200-DMA, and rates have been rising, in turn.
A few days ago, Mitch McConnell basically called (and caused) the bottom for gold, when he said that Washington must pass the stimulus bill, in order to avoid a complete Main Street meltdown in January. Gold prices began to price a fiscal aid program, a monetary QE support policy, and an inflationary recovery in 2021.
When I wrote that I personally bought gold-backed ETF shares, it was literally two days before the bottom. We nailed it!

Our five watchlists, published in April, June, August, September, and a pre-election one in October, have delivered the research necessary to conduct due diligence on over fifty companies; the appreciation of said companies has been remarkable when compared with their respective index benchmarks.
In April, we published THIS. Within it, AXP (which I’m a shareholder of) has appreciated by 60%. VFC (which I’m a shareholder of) has appreciated by 73%! SWK (which I’m a shareholder of) has appreciated by over 80% and trades even above its Pre-Covid-19 price. I don’t believe the company will ever trade for $100/share, which was the limit order noted in the report. It was a stunning entry point, in my opinion. The S&P 500 has appreciated by 31% in the same timeframe, so these companies have delivered a significant Alpha. Spirit Aerosystems (SPR), which I stressed recently as a company that one must look at when it was trading for around $20/share in the beginning of November, has doubled in one month, thanks to the anticipated recovery in the airline industry.
This was only the first watchlist. It contained 27 companies, in total. Then, in June, we published the 2nd watchlist HERE! It featured an additional 10 new companies. Sysco (SYY), which I’m a shareholder of, has appreciated by 53%! Axis Capital (AXS) has appreciated by 36%, Trane Technologies has appreciated by 68% and Booz Allen Hamilton (which I’m a shareholder of) has appreciated by 22%.
In August and in September, we published watchlists 3, 4, and TECH. Within these, we profiled 20 additional companies, with only CHKP (which I’m a shareholder of) trading below its limit order; the rest have been on fire.
Now, though, I’m warning that euphoria is unsustainable. I feel much like I did when my friend’s maid/cleaner asked him how to buy Bitcoin, when it traded for $12,000/coin in 2017, on its way to $20,000. In other words, I’m not calling the top, but I’m cautioning that it’s near, unavoidable, and would usher in a period of sideways and downward selling.
We are about to publish a 6th watchlist, so stay tuned!
The dollar weakness has caused this record inflow into emerging markets and the vaccine risk-on trade has caused gold to brutally crater, but the stimulus surprise, which was uncalled for, has reversed the trend in commodities.

The commodity index is the CHEAPEST it has been since 1990 and some measures show it is the cheapest since 1942; the recovery in global trade and manufacturing in 2021, as the economy opens up, will potentially serve as an inflation catalyst and we are positioning not only in commodities but with a number of the most compelling companies I’ve come across in my career, which started when my folks signed a waiver to let me trade as a minor (16 years of age) in June 2000. I’m excited!
When? Months? Weeks? Days? Any guesses on the time frame?
I’ve read this shit for 30 years. Getting tired of it too. Of course it is going to crash, this fool is no different than the last million that said it. Only a complete idiot keeps savings in a bank or a ton of cash. Silver has done well in bad times. And it’s real. I’m doing fine in all this bullshit because I OWN ALL MY THINGS FREE AND CLEAR! I don’t even have a credit card! If I don’t have the cash for something I DONT BUY IT! I haven’t used credit for over 20 YEARS! My savings are in SILVER! Ya I don’t have a new truck/toys bit so what….. My older used stuff is every bit as good as overpriced new shit! I didn’t go insane buying a bunch of stupid crap when times were good I bought useful stuff. Land, cabin, preps, and all that goes with that. Too bad so sad for the morons that can’t see beyond the hood of their new dodge ram 60K truck. Ignorance isn’t bliss. And being stupid is going to cost you (maybe your life). And I hope it does because there are waaayyyy too many idiots on earth and they need to be culled. My advice (and it’s damn good) is live beneath your means and save in metals….
Three thumbs up.
After the Central Banks took control of our country, it only took them 16 years to crash the economy (1929). They were/are parasites that have kept our economy restrained while they looted us.
Wall Street joined the central banks and have been looting the country with market manipulations, outright fraud and high frequency trading. Trump even pardoned 5 Wall St megabanks for fraud just a few years ago. Funny how Wall Street corps periodically makes billions on fraud, get busted and then pay millions in fines ….. but *nobody* ever gets prosecuted. ??
Since the late 1990’s, the federals have joined in the wholesale looting and they have stolen a minimum of 21 trillion. Dr. Mark Skidmore says the looting may be as high as 90 trillion. (Catherine Austin Fitts has details)
At what point does the final straw break the camel’s back? I’d venture to say that we have a front row seat for what’s coming. Place your seats and tray tables in an upright position. Place your head between your legs and assume the crash position.
