On the heels of the dollar plunging and gold surging, along with the mining shares, KWN asks that you take a quick look at this chart in the gold sector.

The following commentary is from Jason Goepfert at SentimenTrader:  Wednesday’s collapse in the U.S. dollar provided fuel for gold and the miners. That caused a big spike in Optimism, reaching 96 on the GDX fund (see chart below).

In that fund’s history, whenever the Optimism Index reached 95 or higher, three days later GDX was higher only 31% of the time, averaging -1.5%.  There have been signs of a long-term bottom forming here, but short-term it is difficult to buy into something that is showing extreme optimism.

King World News note:  Gold, silver, and the mining shares may have bottomed.  If you look at the GDX chart above, you will notice that the two previous tops were just taken out on the upside with the most recent thrust.  If you are looking to accumulate mining shares, just be aware that sentiment is showing a bit of excessive optimism at the moment.  

In these type of conditions, some veteran traders may try to wait and buy into some weakness, instead of chasing share prices higher.  Having said that, some of these companies are so grossly undervalued and oversold on a longer-term basis, that significant moves to the upside are most likely the path of least resistance.
