Video summary
The Tom O'Brien Show opens with a discussion on the accelerating volatility in financial markets driven by rising inflation data and aggressive Federal Reserve policy expectations. Key economic indicators, such as the Producer Price Index (PPI) and upcoming Consumer Price Index (CPI) numbers, are causing yields to spike significantly, with the 10-year Treasury yield hovering around 4.95%. This surge in interest rates is strengthening the US dollar but simultaneously pressuring equity markets, leading to declines in major indices like the S&P 500 and NASDAQ. The show highlights that while crude oil prices are pushing above $100 due to geopolitical tensions and supply constraints, this escalation complicates the inflation picture, creating a challenging environment where investors must navigate between high yields, currency strength, and falling stock prices.
A significant portion of the analysis focuses on the divergence between traditional assets like gold and emerging market leaders such as gold mining stocks (GDX). While physical gold has pulled back from recent highs, the GDX index has demonstrated remarkable resilience, gaining nearly 40% over the last few months despite the broader market's struggles. Expert Tim O'Reilly provides technical analysis suggesting that gold stocks are entering a new bullish cycle supported by long-term economic cycles and momentum indicators, potentially outperforming the S&P 500 for the next decade. The discussion also touches on the political landscape, noting that upcoming midterm elections and potential government stimulus measures could influence Treasury buyback programs and market sentiment in the short term.
Throughout the broadcast, the program emphasizes the importance of education and reliable tools for traders navigating this chaotic environment. Various TFN newsletters are promoted as essential resources, offering deep dives into technical analysis, probability trading, and specific sector strategies from experienced experts like Basil Chapman and Larry Pesento. The hosts argue that independent traders need comprehensive market coverage rather than narrow focus to identify hidden opportunities, especially when dealing with complex data releases and shifting market regimes. Viewers are encouraged to utilize live streams, webinars, and community platforms like Tiger Zen to sharpen their skills and gain an edge in today's fast-paced markets.
The episode concludes with a look at specific stock performances, noting that while tech giants like Apple have provided a safe haven, semiconductor and chip stocks face significant pressure as investors digest earnings reports and anticipate further rate hikes. The hosts maintain a cautiously optimistic outlook for the metals sector long-term while warning of potential short-term volatility ahead of the critical CPI print scheduled for the following morning. Ultimately, the show reinforces its mission to educate investors by providing real-time analysis, expert guidance, and risk-free trial options for their premium newsletters, ensuring that traders are well-prepared for whatever moves the market brings next.

>> Good afternoon, folks. Tommy O'Brien
coming to you live from TFN. We pick
things up on a PPI Thursday and we have
yields accelerating higher. Crude
pushing above $100. How about 10221? We
hit 103 and change. Quite the
acceleration right now. And we get PPI
numbers this morning. And you talk about
yields as I jump around. It's not
stopping. You talk about a number,
folks. You got a 10-year right now down
24 ticks 10610. How about 4.95?
Okay, we got a first acceleration
overnight. There's your 830 volatility.
I'll get into the PPI numbers coming up
and they weren't outlandish. The big
inflation data is tomorrow, but right
now 4.95
is the number on the 10-year. You talk
about a number, man. Yields. Now you
jump over the dollar. higher yields,
giving the dollar a little bit of a bid,
but you got volatility and nothing too
outlandish. We actually came into that
830 PPI number already pushing 99. You
backed off a bit. We're back to 9907
right now in the dollar. But you check
out the yield curve, folks. You talk
about a number, man.
The 10-year 11 basis points. 11 basis
points. Okay. The 2-year moving almost
half a quarter point when you put it
that way. up 13 to 4.56. Folks, I've
said it before. You got cash sitting in
a bank account, okay? Sitting in a
brokerage account, make sure you're
getting rewarded for the yield right now
cuz it's out there and you're talking
about a number that is worthwhile when
you're talking about a 2-year at 4.56
right now. Quite a number. All right, we
jump over the equities S&Ps right now.
So, yeah, the market there's your 830
number. Yields spike higher, the market
spikes lower. We have an S&P off 6/10%.
NASDAQ off 1% on the DOT 29,157
right now. You have a Dow off 375
52,048.
And even in the Dow, you got a few
bright spots in the Dow, but still off
by 710. And the Russell off by 1.2. I
mentioned crude.
So quite the escalation.
Yeah. And complicating the inflation
picture. You better believe it. Okay. on
a weekly basis just breaking away from
the $90 area area and you're doing it
with volume. Okay, check it out on the
crude futures. You got volume. You got
volume. The most we've seen since this
acceleration early on. You're coming
into 1.6
and we've done 1.1 right now, but that's
coming into today and tomorrow. We'll
see where we go on a daily basis on
crude. Yeah, doing about 400,000
contracts right now. quite a number as
you escalate higher. Now you talk about
inflation,
dollar sitting at 9908
and gold off 98 bucks.
Yeah, something's going on. We just got
another acceleration right at 3:00. Look
at this. 4363. Gold down 2.2% right now.
We're coming back. We'll take a look at
metals, folks.

TFN, educating investors.
Welcome back folks. So, we have yields
accelerating. That's the move today,
folks. Now, 8:30 a.m. tomorrow, we get a
CPI print. And that's going to be the
deciding factor for a Federal Reserve
that meets 6 days from right now. Okay?
Fed meets September 16th. That's this
Wednesday coming up. And right now, the
market has it priced in about a 70 7030.
Okay? 7128 7129
in terms of a hike being the 71%
probability. And that's for the meeting
coming up. But that that's going to be
decided by the CPI print tomorrow most
likely as that odd will swing when we
get some clarity on if inflation's
abading. But right now you're talking
about 4.95%.
Okay? And you take a look at this thing.
Look at this weekly. Look at the
breakaway.
I excuse me. I've had this this whole
area on my chart for some time, folks.
Okay? You're going back to 2022 when
we've been chopping around. Okay, got
the general area in 23, the lows in 24,
the lows in 25
briefly the lows that we hit in July
and that's a decisive break away from
this area of 10610 at 4.95%. Quite a
number on the 10ear. Now you look at
what yields have done
since the war began. Okay. Pretty
remarkable that we're we had a 10 year
with a threehandle, folks. We had a 10
year with a three handle. We're we're
approaching a 10 year with a five
handle. Okay. And it was 3.98 or
something. So, call it 4% up here at the
beginning of March. And you might as
well call it 5% cuz we're at 4.95. So,
it's a full percentage point over that
period of time.
You jump over the dollar.
Let's put it on daily. Okay. Okay, I'm
going to do the same comparison where we
game came into it. Okay, and here was
your first thrust higher. The dollar was
at about 98. Okay, you got a brief
acceleration initially, you pulled back,
you got another acceleration, and then
you had a remarkable pullback. Yields
have had no pullback whatsoever. Okay,
we've seen the 10ear go from 4% to 5%.
In that same period of time, the dollar
is going from 98 to 99.
And you have a gold contract doing the
same comparison
that comes in at 5200 almost. Okay. And
we're sitting at 4363. So gold's gotten
punished. But the dollar the dollar's
only up one full point when we've gone
from 4% to 5%. And right now we got a
lot of hikes priced in. Okay. and we're
getting at the upper echelons of
of what's acceptable and reasonable
within the realm of what I imagine
Treasury is going to try and do.
Okay. And that gets us to our next one.
So,
can he be bigger than the market in the
long term? No, he can't.
He sure as heck can in the short term,
though. Okay. And we're approaching
levels that they're going to give it a
shot, folks.
and you're talking about yields and then
you're talking about oil and he's making
the play that he has asymmetric
information, right? He's saying, "Bet
against me. I'm the house. I know
information you don't." And that's
allowed when you're a central bank or
when you're talking about that central
bank's currency. Okay? You better
believe that they have inside
information.
But the market's talking right now. And
I imagine this 2 billion4 billion $6
billion buyback deal that's not going to
fly when this is what rates are doing.
Okay, he came into this
outside of the normal announcement,
right? That that announcement that they
were going to at least double their
buybacks was outside of the normal
schedule where they were announcing
their buybacks. So
I wouldn't I'm not in the camp here that
we're going to have the tenure go from
5% to 6%. Right? I'm not in that camp
that that's going to happen. We're
coming into politics here, okay? We're
coming into the midterms and the
president's trying to hand out $5,000 if
Republicans win at the midterms. So, I
imagine that the Treasury Secretary is
going to try and stimulate this market
as well. But boy, today, folks, you talk
about it, okay? It's not slowing down.
This market's talking and we're making
new highs in yield as I talk to you
right now. Pretty remarkable. We jump
over to Oracle shares. So, NASDAQ under
pressure, growth stocks under pressure,
off 4.2%. 2%. Okay, we got Oracle, their
numbers after the bell.
And yeah, you need more volume in this
thing. Okay, I was talking about this
morning. Look at how the bounce we've
gotten. Declining volume on each leg of
the bounce. Last week, you do only 115
million, right? The first bounces were
on 173, 162, and 144. And you got above
that on 115 last week. And now you're
ripping lower and we're coming in with
already 100 million. This is going to be
the week. So yeah, doesn't seem like
Man, you're telling me that the volume's
setting up for lower prices and it is on
Oracle right now, folks. Okay, you got
volume at the lows, you're bouncing on
lighter volume and now we're getting a
selloff.
And hey, when you got crude,
okay, looking like this. Yeah, that's
going to be a problem, folks.
But my feeling is longer term. Okay, you
look at the action in the GDX as yields
are spiking higher.
All right, there's your 830. We came
into the 830 bar at 9661 in the GDX,
folks. Okay, yields are accelerating
higher and the GDX is not selling off.
There's a lot of strength there.
And I say that on a day it's down 3.2%.
2%. Okay, but you already came into that
PPI number and yields have continued to
accelerate right now. You know, you got
crude driving this market. Okay, crude
was already at $100 when we got that PPI
print. So, we just have so much going
on, right? You got PPI that throws an
accelerant on things because you better
believe it. Look at what this market did
in yields. Okay,
the 10-year just dropped 15 ticks on
that 830 PPI number. 15 ticks. The
10-year just dropped. You jump over the
2-year.
I mean, just a mammoth move on the
2-year.
So, the market's looking at this data
and they're thinking tomorrow we're
going to get the confirmation that we're
going to get a hike.
The other side of that is it's already
almost priced in, folks. and it's
definitely priced in by October,
right? So maybe they're worried now
and we'll get that for CPI tomorrow.
But I imagine Treasury is looking at
this and I imagine the Treasury
Secretary is wishing they went a little
bit bigger than 6 billion on the buyback
yesterday. Okay? And he has time. He
does.
But it's going to be a ramp. And this
ramp has 27 months left. That's in if
you just go through the entire
administration, right? They got a lot of
time left. And he's already starting
with 2 billion, 4 billion, now we're at
6 billion. Where do you think we're
going from there, right? So, we're going
to deal with some extreme volatility.
And tomorrow may say that we're hiking
and the yields are basically already
pricing it in though, folks. Okay? This
might be a rumor that Yeah. Can you
imagine? We got a CPI print that says
we're going to hike and we get a
reverberation. Well, keep in mind what
this market's done over the last 10
trading days or so. You're talking about
from 10824 to 1069.
Okay? 2 and a half points in the tenure
over that period of time.
And you're talking about a move in
yields.
I mean, check this out.
Here's
your 10-year.
And yeah, we're up almost a quarter
point already. Now, the 2-year is going
to trade off the the Fed, okay? But, you
know, we can get some PP CPI that
confirms things. And this market's
basically only already pricing in
another quarter point just from where we
were 2 days ago on the 10ear.
Yeah, let alone the run that we were at
4.63 on August 25th. You're up 32 basis
points over that period of time. So, we
got a lot of hikes priced in. And gold
down 89 bucks off 2%. We're coming back
with Tim Hort, author of the OR Oracle.
We're talking some equities and we're
talking some metals, folks. Come right
back.

as well. I'll get it out. Tim Moore,
good afternoon.
>> Yeah, good afternoon. Uh got some
interesting stuff starting to go on
here. Uh this is kind of a where did my
indicator go? Here it is. Anyhow, this
is the June kind of the same thing we
talked about uh on Tuesday, but this is
a June high. uh the July high comes
right around uh 755 area and we had a
sign of strength uh can't quite there
but this is or this green area sign of
strength SOS through that high and a lot
of times you go back and test it uh we
tested it there on ladder volume had a
rally now we're back down into that uh
gap area which is the um yeah the August
4th gap had 69 million shares uh um when
I made this chart. So in other words,
you test this gap, you want to be 10%
less. So that comes in around 72 or 62
million shares. So anything 62 million
shares or less, this gap should hold.
And this gap's also again the high of
June and July. Uh so this is important
area. If it doesn't hold, um then we
could possibly have made a top. Uh my
opinion, uh I think it probably will
hold. We had a trend close here a couple
of days ago 1.34.
A couple of days ago um a day later we
had 92 downtick readings. That's bullish
combination suggest low should form as
early as the day of those readings to as
late as two days later. Um but actually
be today some it could be tomorrow but
it's normally late as usually two days.
I have extended out to 3 days, but
usually panic really kind of shows up
right before the next rally. So, I'm
thinking this is going to this support
area is going to hold. Uh so, we're
still bullish. Um we're in a support
area. We got a little bit of panic uh
especially in the text, but a little bit
of panic in the trend on the weekly time
frame. Um
yeah, this is the bottom window is
weekly VIX. We're actually above 17
right now when I made this chart 17.52.
And the next window up is the weekly um
weekly SPIX ratio. And uh when both of
them are above the mid Ballinger band,
um that's all the green area here. Uh
when both are above the mid Ballinger
band, this is a weekly chart. Now, uh
the uptrend's intact. when when one of
them falls below the mid Ballinger band,
which is the yellow here. Uh we got
actually yellow today. If you notice,
here's kind of a blowup window. You can
see when I made that chart,
uh
>> uh the weekly SPX fix ratio is below the
mid- ballinger band. So, that turned it
yellow. Uh here's the S&P. We're still
above the mid Ballinger band. So, both
of them have gold below the Ballinger
band get the sell signal. So right now
uh we're in the you know yeah the red
areas here are when both are below the
mid uh Ballinger band. So, we're not in
a actually the pink area. Pink area
right here. That's when both are below
the mid Ballinger bands.
And I think I see
>> if the market rallies like I think it
will
>> I was just going to say the buller band.
Where is it around like 7550 7560
something like that if it was the spy uh
the S&P?
>> Uh yeah, it's u
it's a little
>> pretty close, right? Yeah. Yeah, you can
see uh I can't quite um
>> not far from where we are right now. I'm
just those are 50 point jumps in between
each one, right? So you're talking about
I think right 7525 7540 something like
that. Um not far from where we are right
now and yeah and not often that you have
a change not a change of trend but that
the last time we talked it was green
right and then we got a little yellow.
So something to watch and the VIX almost
I think we just hit 18. We're at 1793
right now on the VIX, Tim. And we uh So,
yeah, quite a number. Yeah. So, yeah.
So, it's kind of a interesting what's
going to go on here. So, we got to get
below this line. Uh then that would be
actually below the previous highs here
too
>> of June and July. So, you you break the
below the previous high. So, uh but you
know, next week's expiration week, which
normally has a bullish bias. So, um
we're kind of see here's here's a blown
up chart. You can see a little actually
a little better what's going on. Uh
here's support. Here's that Ballinger
band. Uh the Ballinger bands at uh 7521.
>> Uh so that's where that line is. And you
can see here we're below the Ballinger
band on that. So you kind of see what's
going on. But yeah, you actually compare
volume. You see this sign strength right
here through the previous highs. That's
what you have to have. We have to have
side strength through the previous highs
and previous highs become support and
you measure the uh up volume or you
measure when it's rallying you measure
how that volume pulls back and if it
starts pulling back higher that can be a
worrisome sign and this is earlier in
the trading day today but volume gets
higher than it did last week uh on the
down day that'd be kind of a worrisome
so we'll see what plays out but I think
this area is going to old. Uh but yeah,
we're in a kind of a a blue area or a
yellow area because
the uh SPX fixed ratio is below it mid
Ballinger band. So yeah, it's kind of a
worrisome and usually September is not
usually the first se the first half of
September's up seasonality wise and the
second half of September's down and
again next week's expiration week which
normally on September is a bullish bias.
So if the market rallies, if I get back
to this chart here, I don't know why
that jumped up, but
if this market rallies and it rallies
next week, uh kind of light volume rally
and we don't go above the previous
highs, uh we could be setting up for
some sort of a top. How big a top? Don't
know. But you know, next uh area support
comes in around 7,000, which is
basically this high. So, could it have
pulled back to 7,000? Uh, maybe. So, but
I'm still long. It's too it's too soon
to say, you know, you jump out of the
long side right now. I just don't I
don't think we're we're set up for it.
At least not yet. So,
>> yeah, because people in the Tigers done,
of course, and I know you live by the
ratios and the charts and and I do to a
certain degree as well, but they're just
asking. I want to get your feel like
crude, right? Crude at 103. Does that do
you think about that at all coming in?
And then the yield conversation, I'll
throw that in as well. What do you does
that give you, you know, do you think
about that stuff or you just living by
because cr Yeah.
>> No. Well, the market kind of interprets
all that stuff.
>> So, all the smart money, you know, the
the oil traders and the the debit
traders and all that stuff. They they
already made their bets or they're

>> I'm Orion.
Welcome back, folks. We got an S&P down
by 42 points right now. Trading right at
about 7600. We're talking with Tim
Orard, author of the ORD Oracle. And
don't forget, folks, he's got two great
webinars under the services tab at TFN
and his website orenoracle.com.
And I see you still got one chart on on
the markets. Tim, go for it. Didn't mean
to jump in, please.
>> This is wag breath thrust indicator.
We're below 04 right now. And this rally
comes off this market pretty strongly.
and pushes the wagon breast indicator up
around 6, you're not going to see a top
of any consequence anyhow. So, um, so
the next rally has to have a sign of
strength. If it doesn't and it just kind
of, uh, waddles up, I guess you might
say. Um, here's another indicator. This
indicator RSI has to get above, uh, 60
uh, somewhere in there. you know,
ideally gets above, you know, 70, even
80. So, that would be kind of a sign of
strength. So, yeah, I'm watching how
this next rally performs. I do think
since this next week's expiration week
and we're at a support area, I think
that we still get the bounce. If we
don't uh and the S&P closes below the
mid Ballinger band on a weekly time
frame, I'm out of my long position. So,
it's kind of simple rules.
>> Uh let's get back to the gold. Let's get
to the gold market. Um, okay. It's a
different animal here
off the July low. Uh, this is the 18-day
average up down volume. Showed this
decline indicator last time.
On August 26th, we hit almost 42 and all
it has to do is hit 40. And that's
initiation of an uptrend starting on a
smaller time frame. It's only an 18-day
average, which is basically
about a little over three weeks of data.
Anyhow, works pretty well. Um,
this is these are the last ones. This
chart goes back to 2014. It's a pretty
rare, you know, it's a pretty rare
signal. You get maybe one a year if
that. Uh, last time we got one was 2025.
Uh, that was coming off. Uh, that's
actually even on an uptrend and it
blasted up and we got one now. So, we
got a minor consolidation going around.
Uh, but the bottom window is the GDXGLD
ratio. was on the daily time frame. And
if you notice, we're making higher highs
on that ratio. This ratio leads the S&P
and the and the S&P has not made a new
high yet. We're in a consolidation phase
here. It's just a minor one. It's u
98.99 somewhere. I not sure. Uh I don't
have the price right in front of me, but
the next rally I bet it keeps going. And
how high don't know. The reason why cuz
this ratio is already hitting higher
highs. Excuse
me. Mother goes. Anyhow, there was one
failure uh right here. We picked out a
high, but the other uh I think there's
six times here. So, it's 83% chance this
rout is going to continue. Uh so, not
really too scared about what's going on
right now. Uh here's another blown up
ratio. You can see it there a lot
better. Um here the ratio made lower
highs while the S&P or GDX made higher
highs. You got the little minor
pullback. Uh here you got uh higher
lows. GD
you got lower lows. That's a bullish
divergence. You got the rally. It hit a
new high on GD or GDX daily ratio
breaking above that high. GDX has not
broke above that high yet. Uh even on a
short-term scale. This little box right
here is this box right here. So over the
last couple of weeks, this ratio even
hit higher highs where the uh yeah,
we're about it looks like about 96. And
so anyhow, everything looks bullish
momentum wise. Um these are momentum
indicators. Uh the bottom window is
accumulate advanced decline. Next window
up is the cumulative up down volume.
Both are above their mid Ballinger band.
Uh so you got advanced incline and up
down volume for GDX uh in an uptrend.
So, I don't see a top of any consequence
there.
You can kind of see it a little bit
better here. We're in the green area
right now. I did this a couple hours
ago. Uh, so no sign up at top. Um,
I did some We're going to skip uh Yeah,
we got time to do this. This is the um
this is gold going back to 2000.
Uh goes all the way back to 2000. and
and it's a 4year which is there's a
8year cycle which is the red part and a
16-ear cycle which is a blue blue or
semiircle
and in a nutshell it works pretty well.
Um the it picked out the lows of 2008
and 2016 and 200
it was a low and that the low low in
2023.
The next highs these are all the highs.
That's midcycle of the four of the 8year
cycle and picked out the 2012 high
picked out the 201
high. uh next high is due in September
of 2027, which is a year from now. Uh so
I'm thinking this cycle is going to work
fairly well. So I'm thinking a year from
now we may see a cycle high. I'm not
sure where that cycle is going to be,
but I think it could be up in the two or
I don't know where gold's going to be,
but I think GDX will be double from
here. And here's something else is
really going on. And this is uh the HUI
to S spx VIX ratio or the HUI to SPX VIX
ratio. It's a monthly time frame. And
this is a monthly HUI going back to
looks like a 96. Uh goes back as far as
I could go. Anyhow, I put an RSI to it.
Excuse me. And what's point about this
RSI? So when this ratio is rising
uh that means uh gold stocks are
outperforming the S&P when it's
declining then SPX is outperforming the
HU.
So when this ratio is rising which it
has been uh coming off lows has to be
coming off lows that midcycle has to
come off a low. RSI has to hit up in the
plus 80s. And I keep talking about
initiation of an uptrend. And we we hit
almost 90 on this last one. This last
one over here was 80 something. I I have
to go back and look what it was, but
this was even higher. So that's coming
off of the first really uh low. It
wasn't rallying for was rallying for
about a year, but this is the monthly
time frame. So it's a big big time frame
to look at. And as long as this RSI
holds above 50, that says the Gold Socks
will continue out before the S&P. And if
you notice, we hit 50 here. Probably
this is probably the July low and it
turned right back up. So, we may find
some resistance up around 70 area again.
But, uh, probably we're going to bang
around in this trading range between 50
to 70, I bet, over the next several
years. uh this cycle went from basically
2011 to 2000 or 2001
approximately to 2012. So it went
basically 10 years I think there
something but what's important if this
never made it to 70 or just hit 70
barely and turned back down then that
would have changed the whole scenario or
the whole picture for the gold stocks
but did not do that. We went almost went
to 90. And if you're looking look in the
textbooks, that's initiation uptrend and
it has to have coming off of the bottom.
That's so when you have a bare market
that first rally off that major low have
to be extreme and we do have that here.
So this is still in the early stages of
bull market and I bet bull market gold
stocks will outperform the S&P could be
for the next 10 years just because of
cycle work. So this is important. So
>> I like it, man. We'll we'll see as we
move forward. But I agree with a lot of
the analysis, man. I mean, the setup and
you know, pretty remarkable. The gold
contract, folks, you know, you go from
basically 4,000 recently 10 to 4362. So
we're up like 9% in the gold contract
and the GDX trades from $70 and we're
sitting at 96. You're up almost 40% just
in terms of those equities leading the
metal. Pretty cool, Tim. Appreciate it,
man. As always, we look forward to
talking to you next week, next Tuesday.
>> All right, talk to you then.
>> Thanks so much. Talk to you then, folks.
Come right back.

Welcome back folks. S&Ps off 45 points
right now. Now we take a look at the
heat map and yeah, you got a lot of red
no matter where you look. Hiding for
safety in Apple. Apple approaching a
$4.8 trillion market cap as they
announced the duo.
And yeah, Apple with quite the bounce,
excuse me, up $10, up 3.3% as they are a
point of safety in this market.
Now you got Oracle after the bell today.
Intel off 5%, Lamb off 6%, Micron off
5%, Nvidia, let's take a look at Nvidia
off 2.2 right now. So remember, we're
going to get CPI tomorrow
and with yields in focus and the 10-year
and the 2-year,
can't wait to see what the CPI shows as
we come into a Fed decision. Okay, six
days from right now,
the midterms are going to be here before
we know it, man. They're already here,
right? RNC last night.
$5,000 checks for everybody if
Republicans win.
Can we get a a Can we get a a market on
that one? Can we get a uh I was going to
say a KPI, a key performance indicator
uh prediction market on that one?
Trillion dollars.
Hey,
but yeah, as Tim was saying, okay,
you know, pretty remarkable, folks, when
you look at it, the run that equities
have had in the face of the run that
metals have had. Gold was chopping
around at 4,000 for June and most of
July, right? The run really starts in
the middle of July from like 4,000. We
only hit a low of 3,955. We're trading
up 400 bucks from there, so barely 10%.
Meanwhile, you look at the GDX, okay?
The GDX was down at $73 in June and you
were at $73 in August and you're at $95.
Okay, you're at 30 35 40% almost still
at 95.90, but pulling back right now,
but you still got volume at these recent
highs. Longer term, I like that metals
market, folks. We're going to get a hint
tomorrow morning, CPI at 8:30. I'll see
you at 9:00 for the morning market
kickoff. Have a great one, folks. Thanks
so much.
Build.
