Have We Reached Peak Shale?
Today we deep dive fracking and shale, the energy source that put Peak Oil concerns on the back burner for a decade and a half. According to recent analysis by Goehring and Rozencwajg Shale field production is showing signs of sliding down the backside of Hubbert’s curve. What are the geopolitical and economic ramifications? Are there more shale booms on the horizon overseas? What are the implications for nuclear which has been sidelined in deregulated markets by cheap abundant gas? Leigh Goehring joins me for a detailed discussion.
For a deeper dive check out Goehring and Rozencwajg latest quarterly analysis. http://info.gorozen.com/2022-q4-comme...

Gareth Soloway: Gold - The Safe Trade in a World of Absolute Risk
The Fed was discussing transitory issues, but now they are talking of a mild recession. They have built a house of cards heavily reliant on rates and printing, and no one knows what could break in the system today. The unintended consequences of their actions could lead to a collapse. Despite this, the Fed may be reluctant to curb interest rates, meaning we could be in for a protracted period of recession lasting several years.
Investors today are used to the Fed coming to the rescue, particularly since 2009. But if they don't, markets and investors will be confused about how the recovery will work out naturally. Credit card debt is skyrocketing and car loans are seeing defaults, leading Gareth to believe we are in for a long drawn out recession. People have been overspending since the end of the lockdowns, and soon will have to cut back. Countries with resources, particularly metals, will likely do better than most. China is seeing a surge in demand internally, and it will be interesting to see if this leads to an inflation surge.
Gold is still attractive for its use as a fear trade, and can also do well during inflation. However, it has yet to outperform this year. Servicing the debt will put a burden on the system, while corporations will also have issues refinancing. There are many layoffs coming as a result. Gareth believes the downside for gold is minimal, and the upside is potentially amazing. Silver is trickier to gauge because of its industrial demand aspects, but should perform well if your time horizon is longer than average.
The dollar could continue higher if we get through this recession, which will in turn pressure metals and equities. We need to keep an eye on the jobs numbers on Friday. The decline in natural gas futures has been impressive and we are now in a trading range. Gareth still believes the Bitcoin markets are likely due for a further decline, and that we are seeing similar patterns. A bear market rally appears to still be in play, and a pullback to 18,000 or even lower seems likely. A recession or pullback in equities will also impact the crypto space, so lower targets remain possible. Gareth believes regulations in crypto will benefit the markets, as it will allow institutions into the space. Right now, legally they would have a lot of trouble investing.

Understanding the Golden Cross A Simple But Powerful Strategy
The Golden Cross Strategy is a popular technical analysis trading method that uses the crossover of the 50-day and 200-day moving averages. When the 50-day crosses above the 200-day moving average, it creates a Golden Cross signal. Many traders consider this crossover a bullish sign, as it indicates the short-term moving average is trending higher and has broken above the longer-term moving average, which may signal the beginning of a long-term uptrend.
The Golden Cross is often used by "buy and hold" traders looking for long-term investment opportunities. These traders first use the Golden Cross signal to confirm a bullish market trend. Then, after the Golden Cross signal is generated, traders will purchase stocks (or other assets) and hold them for an extended period while hoping to capitalize on long-term market trends.
Like any trading strategy, the Golden Cross has its limitations and may not be appropriate for all traders or market conditions. Additionally, using confirmation signals such as new monthly highs can help improve the timing of entries.
Join John Rowland, Barchart's Senior Market Strategist, as he explains the core concept of the Golden Cross and walks you through how to use various additional technical analysis tools to enhance timing and filter out whipsaw price movements that are common with trend-following trading systems. John will also demonstrate some of the valuable tools and features Barchart offers to manage this simple but powerful trend-following system.
In this webinar, you will learn about:
- Rules of the Golden Cross System
- Trend confirming technical analysis
- Filtering strategies to enhance entries
- Risk Management Techniques
- Barchart Features & Tools that can help manage trend-following systems
