People are really getting emotional in this market. This morning the DOW gapped up over 30 points and the market rallied into the Fed meeting. At the same time gold fell 10 points on the open. I got three emails from people in gold scared that it was over for them and then about a dozen emails from people who thought the market had bottomed Monday and was about to begin another huge rally. I normally don't get this many emails from people getting really emotional about the market.

The bulls know I believe the market is going to fall over the next few weeks and wanted to tell me how wrong I was. After the Fed announced its decision to do nothing new with rates the market went a little higher and then gave up almost all of its gains on the close. Gold firmed up and the XAU gold stock index finished the day in the green. People are obsessing over the day to day fluctuations in the market and not looking at the big picture. They are getting more emotional about worrying that they are going to miss out on the bottom and not looking at the primary trend or being concerned at all about the risks associated with holding in a bear market.

Matt Frailey of Breakpointtrades.com was kind enough to allow me to give you an article he wrote over the weekend about the larger market trends. He went through over two dozen market charts to help you see the big picture. We don't see everything exactly the same so it will be a good second opinion for you. You can read this article here.
