Last week’s fresh all-time highs left many gold bugs empty-hearted. 

The market continues to torment precious metal bulls as they wonder what could have been.

But hopes and dreams aren’t a viable strategy.

The only “what if” that concerns me is whether the yellow metal flashed a failed breakout.

Or are we simply dealing with a a premature move?

Let’s dig in…

Check out the weekly chart of gold futures, highlighting the breakout in question:

We’ve been all over this one.

Two weeks ago, we couldn’t help but discuss the impressive move out of the silver/gold ratio, pointing to risk appetite in the precious metals space.

Now, gold’s crazy little cousin is pressing up against new 52-week highs.

Just check out the chart of BlackRock’s Silver ETF $SLV rallying into this key inflection point near 23:

Mining stocks are breaking out.

All four names we outlined in last week’s Gold Rush Video have triggered buy signals.

The tide appears to swing in favor of the gold bugs.

And, based on Monday’s bullish price action, perhaps it’s just the beginning.

The wait is over.

Goldbugs, rejoice.

Silver has finally found its dancing shoes!

Will it stop there? No one knows. 

But, based on last week’s price action, gold’s crazy cousin may have slipped into party mode…

Miami is pure gold.

It sways to its own beat, enticing and intoxicating even the insular traveler.

Incidentally, I was engulfed by the city’s rhythm as I attended a family wedding last weekend.

And it was wild!

I danced with family and friends and sipped bubbles at sunset in Key Biscayne straight through to the early morning hours along South Beach.

But this old dog would never have made it to dawn without my wife’s crazy cousins. 

They displayed an appetite for reckless abandon that gold longs to witness from its own crazy cousin…

Silver!

Gold wants to party like a rock star until the wee hours as it twists and turns toward a new all-time high.

Unfortunately, silver doesn’t want to dance.

Precious metals bulls have plenty to be excited about.

Major headwinds have abated as rallies cool in real yields and the dollar.

Gold futures are trading above their former commodity supercycle peak.

And the yellow metal is printing new all-time highs priced in every significant currency except the US dollar.

Even mining stock stocks are breaking out!

Investors love a good gold debate.

“Is it a commodity, or is it a currency?”

I’d argue it’s both.

But, today, I want to focus on gold as a currency in light of a series of new all-time highs versus fiat overseas.

Gold priced in euro terms closed last week at its highest level in history.

Gold and silver are pushing higher after posting potential failed breakdowns earlier this month.

If the October lows mark a critical inflection point – and it’s still a big “if” – the following three names will be ripping above our risk levels…

First up is a $5B gold mining company headquartered in Toronto, Canada.

This is Alamos Gold $AGI:

AGI provided profits in the spring, launching it to “fan-favorite” status.
