Last Week Was Just A Taste Of The Coming Gold Short Squeeze

The gold and silver futures markets got even more unbalanced last week, with speculators (who are usually wrong at the extremes) going as short as they’ve ever been and commercials going even more long.

Here’s the gold data in chart form:

These are historically huge imbalances that – if the action in the paper markets still has predictive value – point to a gold short squeeze in which the speculators who are now betting that precious metals will fall are forced to cover those positions by buying, in the process sending the price up dramatically.

On Thursday we got a sense of what that might look like. Stock markets around the world sold off, which sent capital scurrying for cover. Some of that capital flowed into gold, which chased futures speculators out of some of their shorts. The result was a nice pop in gold:

But this barely dented speculator short positions, as we’ll discover next Friday when the COT report covering Thursday’s action is released. So the real gold short squeeze is still to come.

Risk-Off, Everywhere

The other interesting thing about last week was that stocks, bonds and cryptos all fell while gold and silver were rising.

These aren’t especially notable moves, and can be reversed out in a single big “risk-on” trading day. But again, they’re a taste of what’s coming when it finally dawns on investors that every major asset but gold is overvalued and therefore prone to correct if not crash. Even instruments previously thought to be safe havens like government bonds and cryptocurrencies have become bubbles destined to pop.

Gold is the only thing that’s hasn’t been bid up to bubble territory in the past few years, which makes it cheap and therefore relatively safe. Combine this undervaluation with the even more important fact that precious metals have historically been THE safe haven in times of financial and geopolitical stress, and there’s a real possibility of global capital not just trickling but pouring into this tiny market. That gold short squeeze will be one for the history books.

  1. I’m stackin’, n’ packin’,
    the gold that I lovvvvvvvvvvve.

    I live back in the woods y’see, my woman, n’ the kids n’ the M-249 n’ me.
    And a country boy will survive.

    1. My Hubbie and I live rural in Maine and we’ve been stacking for years. Sure wish gold wasn’t manipulated so much or controlled by paper contracts. When fiat fails who knows how high gold and silver will go.

      1. True. All I know is you can’t eat gold, but you also can’t carry a ham sandwich around in your pocket for six months, either.

        1. I basically generate about $12500-$13500 a month via the internet. I dropped my job after doing work for the same employer for many years. I required reliable earnings. I was not interested in the “get rich overnight” home programs you can see all over the net. Those all are type of ponzi sort of network marketing plan in which you need to initially make interested customers after which sell a product to friends and family members or any person so that they will be in your team. Working via internet has many benefits like I am always home with the children and also enjoy time with family on different beaches of the world.

        2. I actually earn almost $23,000-$24,000 every month using the internet. I dropped my job after doing work for the same workplace for several years. I wanted trustworthy income. I was not interested in the “get rich overnight” packages you notice all over the internet. Those all of them are type of ponzi kind of mlm marketing plans wherein you need to first make prospective buyers after which sell something to friends or relatives or anybody so that they will be in your team. Working over the internet has many benefits like I am always home with the little ones and also enjoy lots of free time with my family members in various beautiful beaches of the world.
