Goepfert SentimenTrader continues: This has happened 16 other times, and it wasn’t a good sign for the sector.

King World News note: Gold and silver bulls have to keep an eye on two things here.  One: If gold does make a new low, will the HUI Gold Mining Index put in a higher low.  Second: Will the HUI shake off the tendency to decline and head higher.  As Goepfert mentioned, that “would be a good sign that the multi-year downtrend is becoming unglued.”
