Below is a chart and brief excerpt from today's Early Look written by Hedgeye CEO Keith McCullough.

Clearly, at least on my Twitter stream, I’ve been triggering Gold Bugs for the last week. That’s what happens A) when Gold finally has a relative and absolute week of positive returns and B) it gets above its 200-day Moving Monkey, I guess.

Since Gold signaled Bearish @Hedgeye TREND entering #Quad2, do you know it spent a LOT of time above the 200-day? Did that prevent Gold Bugs from having a -18% drawdown from Gold’s Cycle peak?

Let’s keep it real here, with both nominal and real yields back on the rise this AM (UST 10yr Yield +3bps to 1.66%), Gold is still in the midst of a -11.3% #FullCycle Investing Drawdown from its #Quad3 Cycle Peak in AUG of 2020.
