NEM Lead Indicator = Bullish +0.64% Versus The XAU Today

Which jives with my expectation that a very short term upcycle will be in effect during some/much of tomorrow's session. The headfake rally that began early on Friday (See http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ta?s=%5EXAU&t=5d&l=off&z=l&q=c&p=&a=m26-12-9,p12,fs,w14&c) probably peaked today or may peak tomorrow.

The past nine weeks and three days the NEM Lead Indicator is a very bearish -9.88% vs the XAU. There shouldn't be much relief for longs until Wave A down of the Wave 2 Cyclical Bear Market (since 5-11-06 for HUI/XAU and since 1-31-06 for reliable lead indicator NEM) bottoms in the 100-110 range (XAU) in the next few weeks.
