Now I figure that is as good, reliable, as any other ‘normal’ indicator for the price if gold. Maybe even better than most if you say it has been so for forty years! You have a chart of that Gold Tree? 🙂 Just kidding about the chart, but a good excuse to thank you for all the charts you post here.
If that bloom is accurate 8 out of ten years, it seems good enough to risk a few JNUG on. I have made trades on worse hunches than that. LOL
Crepe Myrtle are beautiful when in all their glory. Some neighbors trim them back every year, and some have let them grow and reach crazy heights with beautiful lakes of color against the blue skies. Take care of that tree, it may be the best indicator of gold we have in the world of skewered government stats.
Have a great weekend. With the shakeups in Washington, and the failure of Senate to get anything done, next week could get a little exciting in the markets. Another sign pointing to higher prices would be my guess.
