Every weekend we publish simple performance tables for a variety of different asset classes and categories along with brief commentary on each.

As this is something we do internally on a daily basis, we believe sharing it with clients will add value and help them better understand our top-down approach. We use these tables to provide insight into both relative strength and market internals.

This week we want to highlight our US Equity Index and Sector tables, as they are both showing continued evidence to support some of the trends we've discussed recently.

This week, the US Dollar/Rupee pair hit our upside objective and evidence suggests a near-term pullback is likely.

In this post, we'll update our risk management levels and outline why the Rupee remains at risk longer-term.

This is the video recording of the March 2020 Conference Call.

Sunday we wrote a post reiterating our long-term view that the path of least resistance in the Rupee remains lower.

With that said, we were a bit cautious about buying the potential breakouts in USD/INR and JPY/INR until we got confirmation, but we've seen some solid follow-through over the last two days.

This post will outline how to approach getting involved in the trade if you're not already.

There are some interesting moves happening in the Indian Rupee, so let's take a look and update our risk management levels and targets.

Here's the US Dollar/Indian Rupee pair on a longer-term basis. What's clear from the weekly chart is that our thesis remains intact. As long as prices are above 69, then the path of least resistance is still higher.

In last week's Chart of the Week, we wrote about our bullish outlook on Gold and followed it up with a deep dive on the entire Precious Metals space, which included a number of trade ideas to express our thesis. This week, we have a table that helps provide a different perspective on its recent price action but arrives at the same bullish conclusion.

The shiny metal has gotten a lot of attention lately as it currently sits around its highest level in seven years.

After about a 9% surge off of this month's lows, we'd expect prices to consolidate in the near-term. But after that, we're betting on new all-time highs for Gold in the coming quarters as long as prices are above last year's highs near 1,560. Here's how we see it.

This post is a follow-on to this week's "Chart of The Week" which covers the recent breakout in Gold.

Here we'll take a macro look at the Precious Metals space, update our thesis, and outline the best ways to take advantage of it.

There is a lot going on in the market right now, not just in the U.S. but globally. The intermarket relationships between Bonds, Gold and the US Dollar are having a major impact on equities.

January is a month that gives us a lot more information than most other months throughout the year. We have the data now that we can use to help us identify primary trends.

Volatility is picking up. Daily swings are getting larger. I’ve seen this story before.

We discuss all of this and a lot more.

This is the video recording of the February 2020 Conference Call.

In this post we're talking about Orange Juice, which may not quench your thirst so stick around to the end for another great bonus chart.

Let's get into it.

You guys know that I just tell it like it is. I don't care what happens. The stock market can double or can get cut in half. Gold can go to zero tomorrow or to 10,000/oz and I won't care. I'm too old to worry about the economic or social implications of market moves. Been there, done that and it doesn't help. We have to look at everything as objectively as possible.

Now, with that said, I have some thoughts that some of you may not appreciate. But I'm not here to tell you what you want to hear. I'm here to tell you what I'm seeing right? So bear with me.

For those of you who have been around here a while, you remember just how bearish I was towards the US Dollar coming into 2019. The Dollar rolling over was a big catalyst for why we were so bullish of precious metals throughout the first 3 quarters of 2019. It wasn't until September last year that we said, ok it's time to get out.

This week on the podcast I'm thrilled to have Quint Tatro join me as our guest. I've been following his work for a long time and have always appreciated his technical approach to managing portfolios at his advisory firm Joule Financial. This was a great conversation where Quint walks us through how he got to Technical Analysis in the first place and how he applies those methods on a daily basis. We went over the overall stock market and how he wants to overweight International Stocks and Emerging markets heading into 2020. He also likes Gold bigger picture here and the mining stocks that come a long with it. I really enjoyed this one. Give it a listen!
