This chart comes to you from Serge Farra and was posted on the excellent Slope of Hope Blog.
It compares the NASDAQ ($QQQ) from 1990-2000 to gold ($GLD) and breaks the respective charts into stealth, awareness and mania phases.
It depicts gold presently as being in a huge bear trap and projects 2012 as the beginning of a massive blow off.
Well worth a few minutes of your time…
Update: While editing this piece I noticed Robert’s excellent deconstruction of a similar theme.
