Barrick Gold - Question of "When?"

Barrick Gold is the world's top gold producer. They are simply the best:

• #1 gold reserves
• #1 gold producer - and finally unhedged
• tremendous project pipeline
• provides global diversification in geopolitically stable regions
• strong balance sheet
• strong management
• etc, etc, etc

Gold is currently in a correction, and this presents an opportunity to "invest" in Barrick Gold. "Invest" is intentionally quoted, because don't consider this a trade. This is both a value and growth investment opportunity. The charts are indicating the downtrend to continue, but what's interesting is that the Gold miners earnings are coming out this week. Barrick reports on Thursday. Early in the week may be a buy opportunity.

ABX - Tale of Two Currencies

• The $USD has surged on safe haven buying, but it did take a breather lasty week
• The more "risky" $CDW has been crushed in the last several weeks.
• Because of high currency volatility, companies dually listed on US and CAD exchanges tell a different story when charted, which makes technical analysis more difficult. 
• One thing to note is that overall the Gold miners did suffer severe technical damage last week. The $XAU and $HUI have reversed and both are oversold. ABX has not reversed it's trend yet, but it is on the edge - the same goes for Gold.
• Expect an oversold bounce this week, and be on alert.
