March 1, 2012 – The Crow ded Trade in Gold Col lapses!

I have been warning that being long Gold during the recent run-up was a crowded trade. I

talked about a potential “death cross” if gold failed. A close this week below $1727.0 will be aweekly key reversal. A trend below the 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages at $1680.4and $1668.6 will be a “death cross” when the 50-day falls below the 200-day. The 50-day hasbeen above the 200-day since February 2009. In the stock market my monthly value levels forMarch rise to; 11,902 Dow Industrials, 1222.5 SPX, 2651 NASDAQ, 4470 Dow Transports and684.13 Russell 2000. This is the downside risk in my prediction of a “Pop then Drop” stockmarket. Weekly risky levels remain at; 13,281 Dow Industrials, 1404.4 SPX, 3101 NASDAQ, 5427Dow Transports and 864.51 Russell 2000. Dow Transports lag versus its 50-day simple movingaverage at 5177 and is well below its July 7th all time high at 5627.85. The Russell 2000continues to be held back by quarterly and annual pivots at 824.46 and 829.03, and 836.15 withits May 2nd all time high at 868.57. The yield on the 10-Year Treasury is above its 50-day simple

moving average at 1.942. Crude oil tested my semiannual pivot at $104.84. The euro versus thedollar shows a daily risky level at 1.3516.
