Miners, metals, momentum — priced against the XAU fix.
Track the full mining ETF complex (GDX, GDXJ, HUI) plus the physical metal trusts (GLD, SLV, IAU) with live prices. The Miner Sentiment Meter flags when GDX and GDXJ are cheap vs gold — backed by 20 years of Gold/miner-ratio data.
Miners are somewhat cheap relative to gold but not a screaming bargain. Average max rally +32%. Often a transitional zone — either improving from cheap territory or deteriorating from fair value. Moderate position sizing recommended.
