[QUOTE="Juan Blanco, post: 1567590, member: 41665"][FONT=arial][SIZE=5][U]On the chart of the most expensive hurricanes in US history, below: [/U]Although POG +30 days might be arbitrary, you can see that Gold is typically UP in the 30-day period following major hurricanes: Big East Coast storms [U]were[/U] bullish for Gold. Also, historically and statistically we expect to see November (the most bullish month for Gold Seasonality) to be UP ~3% or so. Thanksgiving Mittens Rally, anyone? Otherwise normal, Gold's 2011 Summer Seasonality was of expected duration but very mild (a -3.76 decline, 5/5/11 - 7/1/11) and November was also UP +2.77%. But note [B]the aberrant 'big' decline in 2011, following Hurricane Irene. [/B]That NY/NJ storm surge (and the first ever total shutdown of NY's subway!) was different than previous storms in the Gold charts... did it also signal a new correlation for Gold market retracements? Maybe. At this point (10/29/2012) an -8% Decline or worse (on 11/29/2012) would [I]again [/I]illustrate disrupted Seasonality or some other atypical pattern. [I]Perhaps[/I], it's a market sensitivity to East Coast superstorms. If 'putative storm correlation' happens [I]two years in row [/I](2011 and 2012) it's time to look beyond chartist excuses like 'short term overbought technical indicators.' Anticipate future superstorms (2013 and beyond) as predictors for that [I]new pattern[/I]. Investors can only ignore the 'new normal' for so long, at their own peril. I'm not yet convinced but three times' the charm. I'm more keen to know if/when plunging POG signals returning deflationary episodes in 2013, 2014 and beyond. Either way, we shall see.
