Here are two charts to illustrate the point. The first is a 7 week chart and you can sort of do technical analysis on the leveraged fund NUGT, but even so, it is still much better to do it on GDX.
The 2nd is a 5 year chart and you can clearly see that while the two are correlated, the TA relationship completely breaks down when you look at NUGT vs GDX.
7 Weeks
5 Years

One can analyze it or over-analyze it any way you like, in terms of interest rates, USD, etc.
I am just stating the facts.
One can make huge $$$ in the Miners every 4 years or so for about 6 months. Then get out and short the Miners. |
