Been a good year for a few miners.

Suppose all boats float when the tide is rising, still prefer producers (or at least near term ones) than explorers, think if the general market bubble pops, funding junior explorers will once again be difficult.

After the yield curve inverts — here’s how the stock market tends to perform since 1978

MW-HP418_invert_20190814121159_ZH.jpg?uu

The inversion of the main measure of the yield curve, or a negative spread between short-term and long-term yields, has preceded the last seven recessions. However, that doesn’t mean that recessionary jitters will spark a lasting selloff in equity markets.

On average, the S&P 500 has returned 2.5% after a yield-curve inversion in the three months after the episode, while it has gained 4.87% in the following six months, 13.48% a year after, 14.73% in the following two years, and 16.41% three years out, according to Dow Jones Market Data (see table below):

Date of first 2/10-year inversion 3 months later 6 months later 1 year 2 years 3 years
8/17/1978 -10.14% -6.10% 3.06% 19.64% 24.88%
8/20/1980 13.44% 2.27% 5.59% -8.69% 32.49%
12/9/1988 6.10% 17.93% 25.87% 18.31% 36.54%
5/26/1998 -0.90% 8.49% 19.26% 25.96% 16.81%
12/30/2005 4.16% 1.76% 13.62% 18.44% -28.65%
Average 2.53% 4.87% 13.48% 14.73% 16.41%

Read: These stocks are falling the most as Treasury yield curve inverts

On top of all that, a yield-curve inversion, doesn’t instantly result in an economic recession. From 1956, past recessions have started on average around 15 months after an inversion of the 2-year/10-year spread occurred, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch.

Dow tumbles 800 points in biggest one day fall of year on global economic growth slowdown

U.S. stocks fell sharply Wednesday, following a series of worrying data on global economic growth, and after the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note fell below that of the 2-year note, marking an inversion of the main measure of the yield curve, flashing a recession warning signal.

Easy Rider - Intro - Born to be wild!

"Tell Me We Haven't Blown It": Peter Fonda Reflects on 'Easy Rider' and Its Unanswered Question

Leftist Actor Peter Fonda Dead at 79

Actor Peter Fonda, who co-wrote and starred in the seminal 1960s counterculture film "Easy Rider," has died. He was 79.

In a statement obtained by Fox News, Fonda's family said that the actor  -- the son of Henry Fonda and the younger brother of Jane Fonda -- died Friday morning at his Los Angeles home after suffering respiratory failure due to lung cancer.

“In one of the saddest moments of our lives, we are not able to find the appropriate words to express the pain in our hearts. As we grieve, we ask that you respect our privacy," the family statement said. “And, while we mourn the loss of this sweet and gracious man, we also wish for all to celebrate his indomitable spirit and love of life. In honor of Peter, please raise a glass to freedom.”

Born into Hollywood royalty, Peter carved his own path with his non-conformist tendencies. He earned a Best Original Screenplay Oscar nomination for co-writing "Easy Rider," but lost out to William Goldman's script for "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid."

Nearly three decades later, Fonda snagged a Best Actor nomination for his work in 1997's "Ulee’s Gold." He lost out to contemporary Jack Nicholson's turn in "As Good As It Gets," but did snag a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Series, Miniseries or Television Movie for his work in the 1999 Showtime original "The Passion of Ayn Ra

I have the same upwards channel on my gold chart. It would still surprise me if gold retraces to 1300 over the next two years. How would that even be possible?

Would a sudden contraction by the Fed do this? Wouldn't that destroy the economy? Maybe the Fed will do this to get revenge on Trump and make sure he isn't reelected.

EDIT: based on these concerns I have sold off 1/3 of my physical gold holding.
