Lower Number Than Expected.

Lower Number Than Expected.

Dear investor.

 

A welcomed CPI number was released earlier today; 3.2% is good for the dovish camp...this should allow interest rates to stay put. 

 

While on the subject of rates, the last bond auction was horrible. If you evaluate the U.S. debt situation, a growing mountain of debt, then it´s understandable why other investment options may be attractive.

 

Don´t forget, by FRIDAY the circus in Washington needs to resolve the debt ceiling...good luck.

 

On Wednesday Biden and Xi will be meeting in California in the hopes of improving relationships between both countries. 

 

This is also an opportunity to address those of you who ask why the markets are not much higher while the conflict in the Middle East rages on? It´s cynical, but very real, the intense fighting means absolutely nothing new to the markets. However, a fresh player entering the arena, well, that´s a different game altogether. This is how it works.

 

By the way, do you guys know that the war between Russia and Ukraine are still going on...sad...but it´s just human nature.

 

From a technical standpoint, certain long-term studies suggest strong potential for higher pricing over the next couple of months. 

 

With so much possibly happening either from the economic side of the equation, or any major escalation on two war fronts...investors should be very active.

 

Additional economic data is expected this week.


Short-term: Headlines are your buying opportunities.

 

Long-term: Fundamentals are your guide.

 

Much success to all.

A Slippery Slope.

A Slippery Slope. Dear investor.   It gets more complicated every minute that goes by...it seems that the missile which hit the hospital originated from Gaza. No matter where it came from this act of terror has no justification.    A U.S. battleship intercepted three missiles that were fired from Jemen; the flight path was headed towards Israel. Events like this could change the conflict or should we say expand to third parties raising global tensions immediately?   If the flow of oil is disrupted, expect further gains in precious metals as investors continue to seek safe havens.    Events unfolding, bring greater possibilities for using oil as a weapon against the West. Such a play will then reflect directly on inflation numbers and maintain pressure on the Fed to hold rates steady.    Israel to start its ground war soon, the potential for additional Black Swan events will multiply exponentially...Iran is looking...searching for that window to enter the field.    In Leban

When Rates Start To Fall.

When Rates Start To Fall. Dear investor.   While the FOMC meeting is taking place, let´s take a moment to understand the potential for precious metals heading into the new year.   If we look at basic economics, in an environment where interest rates are rising sharply, the textbook answer is for the metals to decline in value.   That being said, over the last year, rate hikes were not rising, they were on fire, straight up with no brakes insight...and gold managed to hold, plus, establish a new record high in such hostile conditions.   Then the logical question is, what are the possibilities as interest rates start to fall?   This requires that you calmly digest and review closely the last twelve months.   Tomorrow, the Fed will most likely stay put, with the inflation numbers remaining stable from the last report. Most expect no rate increase.    As soon as the decision is announced IMG will inform all of you.   Short-term: Headlines are your buying opportunities.

Expect Volatility. . Dear Investor.   The Fed meeting started today; as always,  IMG  suggests  that investors should expect volatile conditions...  Tomorrow at 2:00 PM EST, the decision will be released.    The market estimate is that rates will remain as is.   This is the dominant news... everything else is secondary.   IMG  will inform all of you slightly after the rate decision; Mr. Powell´s comments following the data will carry more weight than the actual rate announcement.   Short-term: Headlines are your buying opportunities.   Long-term: Fundamentals are your guide.   Much success to all.   Schedule your appointment here clicking.   Depository relations: London - Singapore - United States Canada - Australia - China - Switzerland Brinks - IDS - Loomis - The Perth Mint info@intlmetals.com
