Weekend thoughts
no penny for my thoughts
This is a weekly digest of unassociated pictures (graphs mostly) I saw during the week. Not much context is given.
Pressure is mounting
US customs revenue surging:
BTC vs silver:
ISM Manufacturing PMI: already a few years in the doldrums:
TPU vs GPU
Demographic crisis:
Gold only at 2.8%, just imagine if at 4-5% like the banks want for crypto.
ChatGPT declining 🥵:
Looking precarious:
USD: woops
S&P500 1% of ATH… Make it make sense!
Russian oil export. One giant shell-game:
The visuals are a nice way to wrap up the week.
Generally, I think 2026 will be exceptionally volatile, suitable for traders.
I'm going against my better judgment that Nasdaq should fall because it's overvalued, in favour of a liquidity-driven, weakening USD, stock buybacks, and a favourable bullish breakout from the current fear sentiment, spearheading new highs early in the year as investors front-run the liquidity lag effect. Gold and silver prices and producers will hit new highs, heightened or lessened by what happens in Comex existential matters.
And just as fast as markets went up, all ships will drop as the tide lowers.
Follow the time frames from hourly to daily for trading signals.
Gold and silver prices will recover first, followed by producers.
Resource and hard assets should perform well.
Trading volatility is either your best friend or worst enemy. lol
Keep the plan in sand and the goal in gold.
Open for discussion.
