Disagreeing with Garty: We Are Long Gold [View article]
Gartman publically declated he had shorted at lower prices. My guess is given another $10 higher, that he will cover. Which should drive the price another $10 higher when his massive following cover their short positions. Which will make the chart look beautiful.
Can gold make nominal new highs though during this period of seasonal weakness is a challenge. You hate not to be long though because the US Dollar looks terrible. It just broke a major uptrend and appears to heading south with the budget deficit estimated to come in at $1.8 TRILLION this year.
Re: the chart above - the overlay I referred to did not work! Trust me though, both the Bull and Bear ETFs HGU AND HGD are down big time. Which adds insult to injury. The bear ETF should be up.
Gold has held up relatively well. It's basically flat over the past 12 months in a market when most everything has been smashed.
This bigcharts.com 12 month chart shows the zero gain. It's the gold stocks which have performed miserably. Look at the ETF overlay - HGU - down over 60%....ouch.

Let's see now. Major financial institutions are collapsing by the week in the U.S. South African gold production is falling by double digits on an annual basis. Major gold producers aren't replacing their reserves and can't grow their production.
The result - the US Dollar is soaring and gold is collapsing.
Gold normally rebounds in September when fabrication buyers get active again. Selling in May and going away until October doesn't work. Try the same table above buy buying back in August and you will see the wisdom of the seasonal trade if done correctly.

Hopefully when gold does finally start moving north again the stocks will outperform to the upside as they have done to the downside.
The question is when will this begin to happen. How long do we have to wait. It feels like an eternity right now..
