Gold Stocks Outperformance Begins Now
In the 2021-2025 war cycle, tempers are running hot, so it’s easy to lose focus on the rampant de-dollarization that is enveloping the world.

After breaking down from a broadening top pattern, a bear flag ushered in a near-vertical drop.

dollar versus gold comparison chart
Over the past 50 years, the dollar has gone nowhere against other key fiats…
While being viciously mauled by the ultimate currency that of course can only be gold. The big question gold bugs are asking is this:
Is gold set to begin a fresh mauling of all the world’s fiat?
The answer appears to be, “Yes, but…”.For some insight into the action, please see below.

key US rates chart
There’s an interim top roughly in place, but if a bigger/second right shoulder gets built, there could be a week or two of pressure on gold.
Regardless, rates look headed to my 3.4% target zone over the next 12 to 24 months. That would likely see the dollar fall back to par (100) or lower.
These events alone would probably propel gold to $2400, and $3000 could be reached if other events come into play.

While this isn’t a textbook inverse H&S pattern, I call it “H&S action”.
Market reversals and consolidations don’t have to begin from textbook formations… and often don’t. They often launch from “price blobs” or “quasi patterns”, and that appears to be what’s happening here with gold.
Note the fresh crossover buy signal for the 14,7,7 Stochastics series.
All the above suggests that there won’t be much right shoulder action, if any, for US rates. Instead, it appears more downside lies almost directly ahead.
Today, there’s no need to go into detail about the US government’s debt and global meddling that has so obviously gone off the rails.
All that’s needed is for gold bugs to watch for the next horrific surprise related to that madness… surprise that propels gold at least as high as the dollar, rates, and gold charts suggest it will go.
For a look at the action on the “ultimate trade” side of the Golden Pond, please
Indian dealers (just in the official duty-impaled market) imported 123 tons in the month of October, and most of that likely took place right around the $1810 low for gold.
Most analysts refer to the Asian trade for gold as the “love” trade, but I’m adamant that it’s better termed, “The Ultimate Trade”. Three billion Chindians buy gold to celebrate good economic times, key religious events, and great family news… but they also buy it to defend themselves against the hideous entity that is government, and all money that is fiat.
Note that fiat money isn’t just paper money. It can be Roman gold coins diluted with tin. Indians focus on minimally diluted 22-carat gold, while citizens of China generally prefer theirs to be 24. If the free (black) market of India is taken into consideration, Indian imports in October were likely closer to 150-160 tons.
What about silver?

The inverse H&S action is substantial.
A surge in 2024 should see silver reach a price of $35.

GDX “base pattern and gulag” chart
While some gold stock bugs may feel the Cooper Brothers rock band song, “The Dream Never Dies, Just The Dreamer” is fitting for the action of gold stocks versus gold, I’ll dare to suggest this chart has become much more base pattern than gulag.
The upcoming BRICS meeting concerns the gulag that is Gaza, but a lot of de-dollarization talk (and potential action) is likely to happen too.
De-dollarization and “De-Americanization” of the world are themes that are in their infancy. While some fear Western analysts may be a bit too hasty in their calls for an imminent gold price parabola, long-term de-dollarization is likely to be in sync with long-term upside action for gold, and for outperformance of gold stocks.

There’s now a buy signal on the key 14,7,7 series Stochastics oscillator. Also, please note the inverse H&S pattern in play. Gold stocks are poised to show gold bugs all the money they have waited patiently for… and deserve!
