Could A Dollar Breakout Hammer Stocks And Metals? My Latest Interview Explains
In my latest interview with Steve Yang from Natural Resource Stocks, I walk through the charts behind gold, silver, miners, the U.S. dollar, equities, AI momentum, and why cash can be one of the most important positions in a portfolio. I still believe gold is in a major long-term supercycle, but the short-term charts are telling a different story right now. When I look at Fibonacci levels, the 618 retracement, silver’s volatility, and the weakness showing up in miners, the charts are warning that we could see more downside before the next big move higher begins.
We also talked about why a breakout in the U.S. dollar could put pressure on both precious metals and equities, and why I view physical gold and silver as insurance rather than a trading vehicle. Markets can stir up a lot of emotion, especially when AI stocks are running, metals are pulling back, or investors feel stuck holding cash. This is where logic, trend analysis, and risk management matter most. We are not registered financial advisors, and we do not provide any individual investment advice.
