Oil now at the 76.4% Fib, is that less bullish?

In early Jan despite only a small 3up off the very deep Dec low I thought we were heading higher as wave i of C.Into early April I thought we had a complete (a)(b)(c) for wave i of an ED for the C wave and should fade in a wave ii.Our (a)(b)(c) for that possible wave ii has slipped past the 61.8% Fib in the alt orange v cautioned about to the next Fib support level, the 76.4%. As discussed though this does now have the potential to count as 5 down from April rather than an (a)(b)(c) with an extended vth of (c).

Looking For A Spark: Newmont Corporation (Technical Analysis)

Contributed by Mark Malinowski, produced with Avi Gilburt.IntroductionPrecious metals and precious metals miners are on the cusp of a run. I won’t attempt to predict the future, using a crystal ball. Nor will I ever guarantee that there will be one more low or not. There is no confirmation that the next rally phase, which permabulls have been predicting over the last two years, has already started.What I can say is that sentiment appears ripe. Just like a room filled with gas to the right ratio of fuel and air looking for a spark in your favorite action movie, I feel like now is the time.

Contributed by Mark Malinowski, produced with Avi GilburtInflation has pushed up the price of everything is what the Fed and mainstream media has been is telling us every single day for the past two years. So what happens when theFedsays inflation is under control, and they plan to cut the cost of borrowing money? Historically, when the Fed begins reducing the cost of borrowing, it has shown to be a great time to invest in precious metals and precious metals miners. Now is that time.The traditional view to finding value would be looking at the cash cost of production of a gold equivalent ounce, GEO. However, the all-in sustaining cost, AISC, includes sustainable production costs.

Gold: Ready For Blast-Off

Contributed by Steven Kirkpatrick, produced with Avi Gilburt.If you think that now may be a good time to invest in gold, you may very well be right. But more than likely, you will be right for the wrong reasons. Indeed, there's more confusion andmisunderstanding about gold prices than any other investment I can think of. We presently have a bullish outlook for gold and other precious metals, but not for the reasons most people expect.A great many analysts and pundits like to draw correlations between various exogenous factors that will cause the price of gold to rise or fall. I submit to you that almost every one of these analysts is wrong.
