“Watch out for the ‘death cross’” ran the title of Saturday’s Money Morning round up.

But what is a death cross? What does it indicate? And just how reliable is it?

These are pretty pertinent questions. We have death crosses forming across global markets – confirmed in Japan’s Nikkei and the Shanghai Composite; forming in the FTSE 100; in oil and in copper; and looking likely in the Dow, Nasdaq and S&P 500.

My latest for Moneyweek:

After moving above $1,260 an ounce on Friday afternoon, gold closed the week at $1,256. It’s a new record.

And it’s no surprise.

Governments and central banks have between them created an environment of negative real rates. For example, retail price index inflation in the UK is above 5%.

The result is that savers are being mugged by policy-makers. Money in the bank is losing its purchasing power, as the people in charge attempt to devalue the currency. Watching your savings shrink by the day isn’t much fun. So people are being driven to find a more effective store of value.

Is it any wonder people are flocking to gold? Read on …
