Right now, you may be wondering whether it’s time to buy some extra bullion.
I don’t blame you.
As you know, I don’t consider myself a gold bug, but I do track the metals weekly in my Wall Street Examiner Precious Metals Pro Trader. Those of you who are gold bugs (and I have deep respect for you) can use that information however you see fit.
I just tell you what the charts are telling me.
And right now, they’re telling me that May is an absolutely critical month for gold.
Gold has traded in the same range for 47 of the last 52 months. It’s easy to forget how gold used to move in sustained trends. Is it finally ready to make its move and start another sustained trend?
I’ll tell you what you need to know about that in a minute, but first, let’s take a look at the long-term and intermediate-term setups.

Late Thursday, reports began to trickle in that retail behemoth Walmart Inc. (NYSE: WMT) was in preliminary negotiations to acquire health insurer Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM). Humana’s market cap of around $37 billion makes this a very big deal, even if the talks result in some sort of partnership between the two firms.
