Instrument Summary

This time domain average of important precious metals, valued in US Dollars, emphasises the periodic components within each constituent that are phase locked. The signal to noise ratio for any significant periodicity is increased, within the average, by this method. Included in the composite are gold, silver, platinum and palladium.


ΣL Cycle Summary

The most notable aspect of this longer term analysis, via what could be termed as the ‘40 week nominal’ wave, in Hurst nomenclature, is the outperformance of gold since the last low around July this year. This is in stark contrast to palladium, which is has fallen in an almost linear fashion. Taken together with silver and platinum, the latest up-leg iteration of this component in precious metals is distinctly sideways. A peak is due now and it will be interesting to see if gold continues to outperform the other metals, within the down-leg, to the end of the 1st quarter 2024.
