Thanks for the clarification. Big picture seems obvious with Trump: he has resources as one important priority of shoring up US economic and military security -- whether that means freeing up resource industry from harmful regs or making "further acquisitions" I don't know how important the BRICS thing is -- people have been talking about for years The shift of CBs toward being their own custodians of PMs is a real trend and is moving us more toward the multi-polar currency regime -- which I think is a healthy thing and something that Trump/Bessent are not opposed to (they like weaker dollar -- just not too quickly??) Just that chart that is floating around showing CB holdings of gold surpassing US treasuries is enough to know that a long term shift has begun -- all of the youtube pundits are starting to show it know

silver miners are still badly lagging the metal -- and to a lesser extent that is true of gold -- even though miners, in general, are up significantly since April of last year ... call me a starry-eyed bull -- but before this crazy bull is done -- I expect this terrible underperformance as evidenced by these two ratio charts -- to be rectified in a big way stockcharts.com stockcharts.com can also plot this one -- maybe more apt as silj has a lot of gold in it stockcharts.com It's amazing that these ratios for silver miners to the metal are scraping April lows -- underperformance is something you mentioned much earlier -- The gold miner ratio chart looks like it wants to break out to me ... Feel free to give the counterpoint with your cycle work ....
