I have short term sell signals on GDX and GLD, and they are threatening to become intermediate term sells.
These are very closely correlated to the dollar, negatively, and the dollar is in turn very closely correlated, these days, to the stock market, once again negatively.
Which means: if the intermediate term sell signal comes in on gold stocks and gold, I'm expecting one will follow for the stock markets within about a month or two thereafter.
Intermediate would be for a period of a couple of months, on average.
OTOH,
1 - No short term sell yet on stocks, although since I got the short term sell on GDX and GLD, they have been sputtering a bit.
2 - Long term gold and gold stocks still look fine, but over the long term these correlations don't really hold anyway.
