We are now entering the upward phase of gold\u2019s 8-year cycle, and that should bring some fun gains. And this comes at a time when gold has not been getting much of investors\u2019 attention. If gold stays flat for a year, and Bitcoin twinkles to get all of the attention, speculators eventually drift away from gold. That sets up a great opportunity for gold to start getting more attention, and more money thrown its way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

As with most market cycles, gold\u2019s 8-year cycle is measured bottom-to-bottom. But there is more to it than just that 8-year period between major bottoms. It typically sees a 3-year upward phase, which is where most of the big gains are seen. Then the 5-year downward phase actually has a 3-wave process of going down.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This has been evident since shortly after gold started trading freely in 1975. The cycle was probably lurking out in the wild, but it was just not evident with the Treasury department fixing gold prices prior to the 1970s. The 3-up, 5-down pattern saw one anomaly in the 2000s, when prices were mostly up all the time during that cycle. But if you look hard enough, you can see the inflection points of the 3-wave down move within that upward trend.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

Now that we are in the 2010s, the pattern appears to have returned to its normal 3-year up, 5-year down phase, and reset for the next 3-year up phase. So why has gold not started screaming higher already?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

My answer is that there is another independent cycle also at work that has kept gold price down in late 2017, and that is the 13-1\/2 month cycle.<\/p>\n
