"The bottom line is the strong stock bull of recent years appears to be topping. It is long in the tooth, much older than average. It has also powered far higher than average, driving it up near bull-killing secular-bear resistance. And since stock-market valuations remain way too high to herald the end of this secular bear, it needs to reassert itself. And the recent topping behavior sure looks like this process is starting.
Cyclical bears within secular bears
are not to be trifled with, as they mercilessly slash stock prices in half over
a couple years or so. But not everything gets sucked into this selling. Gold
actually becomes much more attractive during stock bears, an island of strength
in a sea of weakness. And gold stocks generally follow gold higher,
particularly earlier in stock bears before the selling grows more intense later
on."
