Stanley Druckenmiller came out and said that the market has never been this disconnected from reality and that the risk/reward has never been this bad.

Besides Druckenmiller, Ray Dalio had some words about the market:

The dollar, euro, and yen are in the late stages of their long-term debt cycles. This could mean that in the near future our dollars could be potentially worthless. One of the reasons Ray Dalio says were are at the end of a long-term debt cycle is because debt is at an all-time high, and interest rates are at an all-time low. This makes holding our currency very risky.We have more and more debt piling up very little return on the dollar. Additionally large amounts of new debt are being created and monetized with COVID-19. Big devaluations and/or the loss of reserve currency status by the leading reserve currencies would result in the most disruptive economic event we could imagine.

Paul Tudor Jones believes gold will go to $2400 an ounce.

I include these statements because I am looking at what poor risk/reward, the divergence between the economy and the market, a declining dollar, high debt, low interest rates and rising gold prices offer traders as far as profitable investment opportunities.

There are always opportunities if you know where to look.

Last week, we wrote about the clear divergence between the up action in gold and the down action in stocks!

Gold closed strong as did silver and gold miners.

The updated charts I show you of the Economic Modern Family support Druckenmiller’s, Dalio’s and Paul Tudor Jones’ theories.
