Another leg up in the U.S. Dollar over the next week or so should hopefully correspond with a summer low in "risk" assets. All currencies are sinking versus Gold, but markets don't move in straight lines. In the meantime, however, shorter term pain in the Gold and silver price is likely. My subscribers and I are honing in on the Gold stock sector and getting ready for the next bull trade. Join us if you're interested!
