The Many Faces Of Fear And Greed

(Kitco News) - Markets in general have ground to a halt; volume andvolatility are absent from almost every major market in the world. The equity markets are complacent with the VIX trying to make an all-time low. Greed is everywhere:Canadian housing, U.S. equities, bitcoin and livestock.

Fear has been on vacation but is starting to show warning signs: Gold held 1260 and is now pushing 1300. Treasury bonds are pushing higher along with silver; bitcoin could also be considered a fear play. Likeall markets before, greed will end and fear will be in charge and those whoignored the warning signs will wonder what hit them.
