M2 Money Supply is surging. Will gold follow? M2マネーサプライが急増している。ゴールドはこれを追従するだろうか？
Let's investigate an alleged relationship between gold and M2, a measure of money supply in the US.
よく言われるM2（米国のマネーサプライ指標）とゴールドの関係について調べてみよう。
"There’s a clear correlation between the annual growth rate in M2 money supply and the price of the yellow metal. "
「M2の年率増加速度とゴールド価格の間には明らかな相関がある。」
Clear Correlation? 明らかな相関？
The Tweet claims something different than my lead chart depicts. So let's investigate the above idea in other time frames.
If we look at longer time frames, the rate of increase in M2 theory falls flat on its face.
もっと長期間を見ると、M2増加率理論は意味を成さないことが解る。
One can force a correlation starting in 2010 but that is purposeful
cherry-picking a timeframe. and even then, the time period in the box is
counter-trend.
Similarly, one can find times when gold is correlated to the dollar,
the Yen, and most likely the popularity of peanuts at Cub games in some
time frame.
The best correlation I can find to the price of gold is faith in
central banks. Gold collapsed from $850 to $250 under Greenspan's "Great
Moderation". Greenspan was viewed as the "Maestro" until the dot-com
bubble collapsed.
Gold went on a tear during the housing bubble, but put in a top when ECB president Mario Draghi gave his famous speech: "We will do whatever it takes to save the Euro, and believe me it will be enough."
Draghi did nothing. His speech was enough. Bond yields on Greek,
Portuguese, and Italian bonds started collapsing right after that
speech. It was not until years later the ECB resorted to negative
interest rates and QE.
Gold started rising again when the ECB went nuts with QE and the Fed
started talking about "normalization"that anyone in their right mind
knew was not coming.
The BIS did a historical study and found routine price deflation was not any problem at all.
BISは長年物価デフレを研究してきた、そこに何ら問題はないという。
"Deflation may actually boost output. Lower prices increase real
incomes and wealth. And they may also make export goods more competitive,” stated the study.
It’s asset bubble deflation that is damaging. When asset bubbles burst, debt deflation results.
資産バブルデフレは損失を生み出す。資産バブルが破裂すると、債務デフレが生み出される。
Central banks’ seriously misguided attempts to defeat routine
consumer price deflation is what fuels the destructive build up of
unproductive debt and asset bubbles that eventually collapse.
最後の２段落だけ訳をいれました。 Big Silver-Stock Potential Adam Hamilton February 7, 2020 2689 Words The silver miners’ stocks are looking interesting. While they really lagged silver’s surge on gold’s bull-market-breakout rally last summer, their upleg since remains intact. Gold stocks’ own upleg peaked in early September. And silver itself remains wildly undervalued relative to gold, overdue to mean revert dramatically higher. When that happens during gold’s next upleg, the silver stocks have big potential to soar. Like the global silver market is vastly smaller than gold’s, silver stocks are a proportionally-little fraction of the precious-metals miners. As a small subset of a usually-ignored contrarian sector, the silver stocks often languish in obscurity. For decades there wasn’t even a silver-stock index, making sector analysis difficult. ...
最後の二段落だけ訳をいれましょう。 Gold-Stock Head Fake? Adam Hamilton January 3, 2020 3174 Words Gold miners’ stocks blasted higher this past week, breaking out of their correction downtrend. Rapidly-improving psychology fueled such strong upside momentum that sector benchmarks are challenging months-old upleg highs. Most traders assume this is righteous, that gold stocks’ next upleg is starting to accelerate. But key indicators argue the contrarian side, that this breakout surge is a head fake within a correction. In early September, a major gold-stock upleg peaked after soaring higher on gold’s decisive bull-market breakout in late June. The GDX VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF, this sector’s leading benchmark and trading vehicle, had powered 76.2% higher over 11.8 months. It crested the same day gold’s own upleg did, hitting $30.95 on close. That ma...
最後の２段落だけ訳を入れておきます。 Silver Miners’ Q3’19 Fundamentals Adam Hamilton November 29, 2019 3726 Words The silver miners are finally enjoying higher prevailing silver prices, a great boon for this sector. Silver surged this past summer after gold’s first new bull-market highs in several years rekindled enthusiasm for precious metals. The long-neglected silver stocks rallied strongly with their metal. Their recently-reported Q3’19 results reveal whether those gains are justified, and how much fundamentals improved on higher silver. Four times a year publicly-traded companies release treasure troves of valuable information in the form of quarterly reports. Required by the US Securities and Exchange Commission, these 10-Qs and 10-Ks contain the best fundamental data available to traders. They dispel all the sentiment distortions inevitably surrounding pr...
Amazonで買物をしてContrarianJを応援しよう Silver Outperforming Gold 2 Adam Hamilton July 26, 2019 3232 Words Silver has blasted higher in the last couple weeks, far outperforming gold. This is certainly noteworthy, as silver has stunk up the precious-metals joint for years. This deeply-out-of-favor metal may be embarking on a sea-change sentiment shift, finally returning to amplifying gold’s upside. Silver is not only radically undervalued relative to gold, but investors are aggressively buying. Silver’s upside potential is massive. ここ２週シルバーは急騰した、ゴールドを遥かに凌ぐものだ。これは注目すべきことだ、もう何年もシルバーはひどいものだった。この極端に嫌われた金属が大きく心理を買えている、とうとうゴールド上昇を増幅するに至った。シルバーは対ゴールドで極端に過小評価されているだけでなく、投資家は積極的に買い進んでいる。シルバーの潜在上昇力は巨大なものだ。 Silver’s performance in recent years has been brutally bad, repelling all but the most fanatical contrarians. Historically silver prices have been mostly ...
Amazonで買物をしてContrarianJを応援しよう この記事のタイトルからパンチラインを想像できないでしょう、きっと。 ZeroHedgeらしいパンチラインです。 Do You Remember The Plaza Accord? by Tyler Durden Wed, 08/07/2019 - 15:05 With the world's central banks aggressively easing monetary policy overnight as analysts watch in stunned amazement as the world's interest rate careens ever faster toward zero, Trump is angrily watching the dollar as it keeps rising day after day, bringing us ever closer to the moment the US president declares on twitter a " national emergency " over the dollar and unleashes a major dollar devaluation. 昨夜世界中の中央銀行が積極的に緩和政策を勧めた、アナリストたちが驚くほどに急速にゼロ金利に向かっている、ドルが強くなるほどにトランプは怒りをあらわにする、これをみると、ドル減価の「非常事態」をトランプがツイートする日が近づいている。 Which is why it is not at all surprising that today Bank of America has published a report warning that FX intervention risks are rising, in...
