Dollar changes trend
Trends across markets and indexes have been falling this week as momentum shifts. The latest is the U.S. Dollar Index, which finally managed to climb above its 200-day moving average for the first time in more than 200 days. That ends its 9th-longest streak below the 200-day average since 1975. Other times it ended long downtrends, it tended to keep rising, with failures only in 1987 and 2003. This was not good for gold, which was higher a month later after only 2 of the 9 signals.
