Make sure to check out our new MP3 Library, featuring random unedited, unscripted discussions on a variety of topics. New MP3s are being added every week.

This past weekend we released some important considerations addressing gold, silver, the US dollar and the US stock market. This presentation can be found in the video folder for subscribers to the Intelligent Investor and Market Forecaster.

Before we point to additional catalysts helping to extend the rally in gold and silver, it is important to remember that precious metals pricing is very momentum driven. In other words, once momentum builds to push pricing in one direction or another, the total impact of other events that might normally not influence pricing by themselves are magnified.

Case and point is the continued strength of the gold and silver rally today. We believe that this rally, which has been fueled by the “Swiss Effect” is being extended by the recent news of the World Bank and more recently the IMF’s downward revision for global growth in 2015 and 2016.

Of course, these downward revisions are not at all surprising to subscribers to the research, as we have been forecasting lower economic growth data than the IMF for some time. As well, we have been illustrating specific examples pointing to the inaccuracy of the IMF’s overly optimistic forecasts.

As previously discussed in the recent video presentation, you should watch the resistance levels we discussed for signs of weakening, or a breakout through of these levels.

Note that Mike also recently discussed what he believes to be the currently the best risk-adjusted trades (as of January 21, 2015).

The Best Risk-Adjusted Trades Right Now

As one example of possible near term stimili, keep in mind that the ECB is expected to announce more specific details of its quantitative easing (QE) program this week, which could further boost the rally in precious metals.

The lesson is that it is always very important to monitor the release of important data and watch how unforeseen events effect asset pricing.

While support and resistant levels often provide a nice foundation for trade setup and exit, new events and data can easily cause these levels to be breached.

Below Mike has released Chapter 12 of his own 2007 book showing that he was the only one to not only have predicted the financial crisis, but also showed specific ways to land huge profits.
