Gold and Interest Rates: The Intermarket Signal That Halved Gold's Drawdown (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Six gold systems built on price alone failed my testing. So I stopped looking at gold and started watching the market that drives it - US interest rates. Here is what 22 years of data says about gold and interest rates, and how one market can tell you when to own another. (This article was first published here)Get The Complete Rules HereI have a confession to make about gold. Before this system,
A System Earns Its Place By What It Does For The Portfolio, Not By Its Own Returns (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A trader in Wednesday’s workshop described a monthly rotational system he runs across a handful of ETFs: gold, bonds, real estate, a total stock market fund and a commodity index. It holds the three strongest at any one time. It returns around 10% a year, with some flat years in there.It made money in 2021, when almost nothing else he owned did. That single fact is worth more to his portfolio than another two points of annual return on a system he already has three versions of.The filter that re

I Tested the Buy the Dip Strategy for 36 Years – Here is what happened (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The buy the dip strategy is the oldest advice in the market. So I built it into a proper rules-based system and tested it on every S&P 500 stock since 1990 – including the ones that later went bust. Here is what the data actually said about buying the dip.Every trader has heard it. Stock gets hit, you step in, you buy the dip. It sounds obvious, and obvious is exactly what makes me suspicious. Plenty of things that feel true in the market cost you money in practice.Thanks for reading
