Metals

TPP gave a rec to buy GLD on 7/11 just after the YP hold, and I haven't seen any reason to sell yet. Here I'd like to point out that GDX has spent the last 5 trading days above its 2HP (ie above all pivots) which has been fairly rare this year. 

In addition, SLV (not something I always track) has recently lifted back above its YP and held yesterday. SLV is a bit weaker, still under 2HP and Q3P and a falling D200MA, but may join the others above all pivots. SLV looks interesting here, and although I don't like to fight a falling D200MA, there have been several days of selling from this level and no downward motion. This could squeeze higher. 

With DJT threatening shut-down, bonds are the less likely safe haven. Aside from sectors like utilities, institutions concerned about stock valuations can buy volatility, metals or raise cash should their funds allow that.
