Last week, the major stock market indexes inflated sharply higher. The highly followed and popular Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) gained 787.0 points by the close on Friday afternoon. The catalyst for the stock market rally last week was once again, the central banks around the world stating they would provide liquidity for the frozen banks. This announcement is simply more of the same news that many traders and investors recall hearing in September 2008. Perhaps this time around…

Every trader should watch gold extremely closely. Gold has signaled inflation better than any indicator in the world for the past ten years. When gold trades higher it tells traders that the stock markets are being inflated by a major institution or perhaps even a central bank. The opposite is true when gold declines as it will indicate that the stock market is deflating. Gold and the stock market are synonymous with each other. The only difference is that gold will usually lead the…

There is a very simply rule that traders should follow, when gold is trading higher it is signaling an inflating stock market. The opposite is true when gold is trading lower, it is signaling a deflating stock market. Gold and the major stock indexes are synonymous at this time and will trade in the same direction. Traders and investors should know that gold often leads the stock markets and will usually signal the direction for the major stock indexes.

Gold has moved higher of late, pushing up on fears from Europe and the possibilities of inflation ahead. Technically, the SPDR Gold Trust (ETF) (NYSEARCA:GLD)  just hit a key gap fill. This gap fill represents a point where gold should pull back. The level on the GLD was $173.60 and can be seen in the chart below. A short term pull back on gold is likely off of this master gap fill.
