After the ECB left ratesunchanged on Thursday, gold took off to the upside, trading as high as $1,313before giving back half of its gains. This morning gold is under a littlepressure, which is probably a buying opportunity considering it has beentrending higher since the blow-off bottom on May 14.
Commodities got hammered onThursday, especially the grains, which are getting pounded again this morning.The dollar is preparing another breakout to the upside on its way to 100. Theresistance level of 95 should become a memory in the next couple of days withthe euro currency falling apart.
At this point, our expectationsare all dips in gold and other commodities should be bought and higher pricesare coming. Equities are late in the cycle and should be very close to sellingoff. With new highs in the Russell and Nasdaq, this looks like the finalblow-off, which should bring new money to gold and other commodities.
