Precious Metals Market Timing
The Tide Has Turned

Ron Rosen
Dec 9, 2005

"Time is more important than price; when time is up price will reverse." W.D. Gann

The tide has turned. The bull has awakened from his two year siesta. Like Ferdinand the Bull, he is a gentle giant. While he slept under the tree he reveled in the sweet soft scent of the flowers surrounding his slumbering body. Now awakened, he is the rampaging giant that no one, or no number of Picadors, can weaken. He is a giant among giants. He may pause for a brief nap from time to time when the flowers are blooming, but everyone best take notice when he awakens.

This bull is masquerading as the HUI precious metal shares index. Starting in 2001, it rose from a lowly 35 to a high of 258.60 in December 2003. That was a 750 % increase in value over a three year period. For the last two years the HUI has spent its time going up and down between the 250 area and the 160 area. It has completed a correction that can be called a "flat" type. This type of correction indicates tremendous underlying strength. When the HUI topped in December of 2003 it had completed its first phase advance. We are now embarked on the second bull phase. It was confirmed on December 7, 2005. I had established three requirements that had to be met before I could announce that the bull had awakened. Gold bullion had to close above its 23 year old overhead trend line resistance. Silver had to close at a new high for this bull market. The HUI had to close over its high of two years ago. All three requirements were met on December 7, 2005.

The second phase of a long term bull market is the longest and strongest of all three phases. Prices increase much more than they did in the first phase. This means the price of the HUI precious metal shares index should increase more than 750% during this second phase.

The Precious Metals Market Timing letter will keep you apprised of the bull's progress by using the Delta turning points, W.D.Gann Master Cycle studies and long term wave counting. If you are interested in multi week trades, the Delta turning points have proven to be an excellent tool. The Precious Metals Timing Letter will be using the Delta turning points to recommend trading opportunities. In addition, we will be advising you of when we expect corrections to take place and when they will be over.
