Gold was dealt What For last week, taking out major support, trading at levels not seen in over eight months. The culprit of this recent carnage was a major sell-off in bonds pushing the yield on the US 10-year note to 1.5% (yields were a mere 0.5% only six months back). Though current yields represent […]

The launch of Highballer back in early 2020 sprung from the belief that we’re in the early stages of a bull market in precious metals, base metals, battery metals, and all things mining—a bull run that will prove epic in scale.

The plot thickens. Gold, in US dollar terms, tagged all-time historic highs last week, registering a monthly close on the charts that has a universe of traders looking in.
