Commercial hedgers remained long the gold market (third week in a row) for the first time in 17 years and long (for the first time in history) the silver market for the fourth week in a row, but here is the big shocker this week.

Commercial Hedgers Still Long Gold!
 
September 21 (King World News) – Commercials remained net-long the gold market (third week in a row) for the first time in 17 years!  Below you can see the commercials being net-long gold, even without the data from this week’s action being reflected yet (see 24-year chart below).

THIS WEEK’S SHOCKER: All-Time Record $33 Billion Flowed Into U.S. Stock ETFs!

Stay Disciplined
 
As the party in the stock market continues, with all-time record weekly inflows into U.S. stock funds and the Dow and S&P 500 hitting all-time highs, we have already witnessed large scale capitulation in the gold and silver markets, both in the precious metals and the underlying shares of the high-quality companies that mine and explore for the metals.  

Commercial hedgers remained long the gold market (third week in a row) for the first time in 17 years.  They also remained long (for the first time in history) the silver market for the fourth week in a row as they continue tightening the noose around hedge funds and speculators that are massively short the gold and silver markets. At some point the bullion banks will unleash a historic short squeeze. 

We may have already seen the bottom of the gold market when it hit $1,160 in overnight trading in Japan during the final stages two weeks ago during the brutal takedown.  So $1,160 will be the key number to watch in the short-term.  For those who are taking advantage of this historic capitulation, the odds greatly favor a major upside reversal.
