Good Monday morning.

Vacation Heads Up

We’re headed to Alaska tomorrow for a 1-week fishing and sightseeing trip. While we’ll be prepared to issue an alert, if needed, todays Letter will likely be the last one until Tuesday, September 2nd. Following that, we leave for our Snowline Gold trip to the Yukon on September 5th (through September 10th).

Because we own exactly what we recommend in the VRA Portfolio, we’re always watching the markets. If there’s a need to make a portfolio change we’ll send out a "VRA Alert”. If you should need anything from the office, email us at support@vrainsider.com. A big thanks to Josh who is holding down the fort while we’re away.

Market Update

Fridays blast higher, following a dovish Powell (more on this later), featured what can only be described as stunningly good market internals and broadening action. Consider:

Good Friday morning. Breaking: the jobs report for April is in and it’s another beat to the upside. 117,000 jobs were created, beating the estimate of 65,000, with private payrolls almost doubling previous estimates.

VRA Letter: Alert: Raise Stop Loss on TQQQ. Broadening Action; Highly Bullish. Gold/Silver/MIners; This Move Could Be Special. Tesla; Slowly Then All at Once.

VRA Alert: Bought GDXU

Good Wednesday morning. We bought GDXU @ $188.00.  You know our thoughts on PM’s/miners….this group should run for a while. We now have GDXU, VGZ, SNWGF and physical gold and silver, meaning we have a lot of exposure to one theme. However, if we’re right about our positioning in interest rate sensitive names, the rest of […]

VRA Pre-Alert: With the War Ending, Own Precious Metals and Miners. We’ll Be Adding GDXU Later This Morning.

Good Wednesday morning. I think we have the makings of an excellent setup unfolding. We learned last night that Trump is pausing Project Freedom, just over a week before he's set to meet with President Xi in China. This looks like a deliberate de-escalation signal, especially since China relies heavily on that oil flow. It […]
