AG Thorson, a CMT whiz, predicts a February consolidation setting up parabolic gains into May. With Pakistan’s rupee volatility and our love for precious metals as inflation hedges, this could be huge for local traders. Let’s unpack the key insights. Gold-to-Silver Ratio Signals Long-Term Bull Run The Gold-to-Silver Ratio (GSR) has dipped below its lower boundary for the fourth time since the 1970s, hinting at big moves ahead.
