Leonard Melman: Are You Prepared for Hyperinflation?

The Gold Report: You recently told a crowd of investors at Prospectors Developer Association of Canada (PDAC) that precious metals are the best place to invest in an inflationary period. Why is that?

Then, earlier this week gold took a small dive prompting an exit signal via the "Trade Triangles" for short-term traders. Here at MarketClub, we've been hearing talk of a gold bubble, but what do you think?

Is the gold bubble on the verge of bursting?

Monday Market Recap

I dropped the ball yesterday and forgot to wish all those fathers out there a wonderful Father's Day. So... HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

Adam is out of town on vacation for a couple of days at his house in Maine, so I'm filling in some gaps until he returns. Below are just some Trade Triangles and Chart Analysis Scores for a large group of markets that we looked at this morning. These aren't recommendations, but for those of you who aren't MarketClub members... consider it a freebie set of signals from MarketClub. If there are any other symbols out there that are putting off good Chart Analysis Scores, or Trade Triangles please comment on this post and share with others.

*Adam just sent me this picture from his summer house... how beautiful*
