Gold Futures

Gold futures in the June contract are trading higher by $10 this Friday afternoon after settling last Friday at 1,253 while currently trading at 1,267 up about $14 for the trading week and hitting a four-week high. Gold is trading above its 20 and 100-day moving average telling you that the short-term trend is to the upside as a weaker U.S dollar coupled with a terrorist attack this week helped propel prices higher. The next major level of resistance is at 1,275 & if that is broken, I would have to think that prices will retest the April 17th high of 1,297 as this is one of the only few bullish trends out of the commodity sectors. I am not involved in this market at present as the chart structure remains poor. The U.S dollar is right near a seven-month low as that has certainly helped gold prices come off recent lows as that trend seems to be strong to the downside. The stock market hit all-time highs once again in Thursday's trade having very little effect on gold prices as money flows seem to be going into both sectors which is very unusual, but can happen periodically with investors being interested in both sectors. In my opinion, I still believe gold prices are limited to the upside as all the excitement is in the equity markets, but there are so many problems worldwide right now that prices are supported in the short term.
TREND: HIGHER
CHART STRUCTURE: POOR - CHOPPY

Markets Little Changed Heading Into Holiday Weekend

Hello MarketClub members everywhere. The markets are little changed today heading into the long holiday weekend here in the U.S. This comes on the heels of a six-day rally that took all three of the major indexes to all-time highs.

MarketClub's Mid-day Market Report

The big loser this week was oil, which is currently trading down 2.15% for the week. The drop came as OPEC moved to prolong supply cuts for nine months. This news disappointed traders that were hoping for more.

Analysis originally distributed on May 19, 2017 By: Michael Vodicka of Cannabis Stock Trades

First-quarter earnings season is almost over.

And the cannabis sector has been knocking it out of the park.

A lot of the stocks that we have covered over the last few months have stepped up and delivered excellent results.

Let's take a closer look.

In terms of pure growth, the best report I've seen came from Aurora Cannabis (ACBFF), one of the largest medical cannabis companies in Canada

Revenue jumped 2,500% from the same period last year to $5.2 million and was up 33% from just last quarter. Continue reading "Aurora Delivers 2,500% Revenue Growth in 12 Months"

Hello MarketClub members everywhere. After erasing the losses from the biggest drop of the year last Wednesday, the markets have entered a bit of a holding pattern. Traders are waiting for the Federal Reserve to release their meeting minutes for the May meeting. Everyone is waiting to see if there will be a rate increase next month. Fed funds futures show that traders now see a 75% chance that the Fed will raise interest rates in June. The minutes will be released at 2 p.m. ET.

MarketClub's Mid-day Market Report

Silver Futures

Silver futures in the July contract settled last Friday in New York at 16.40 an ounce while trading at 16.83 up about 40 cents for the trading week. It remains in a very choppy trend as prices are trading right at their 20-day but still below their 100-day moving average which stands at 17.46 as I'm currently not involved in this commodity. The U.S dollar is down another 60 points hitting a 7 month low, and that is helping support the precious metals and the commodities in general. Silver has been relatively volatile with big upswings, and big downswings so wait for better chart structure to develop and a true trend as well. Historically speaking I still believe silver prices are relatively cheap and that the downside is limited as the volatility should be to the upside in my opinion with prices right near a 3 week high. Prices bottomed out 2 weeks ago around the $16 level which was also major support as we had tested that level multiple times in December. It looks to me that silver prices are headed higher, but the risk/reward needs to be in your favor which at this time is not.
TREND: LOWER
CHART STRUCTURE: SOLID
