Stocks Enter Corrective Phase as Silver Reinforces Projected Surge to ~39.50/SI+.

06-18-25 – “Silver, Platinum & Palladium (the ‘white metals’) continue to surge as they consistently validate ongoing analysis for MAJOR advances to take hold in early-April ’25 and likely last into April/May 2026.

Once again, it was the synergistic combination of timing AND price indicators that set up and ultimately triggered this scenario after cycles had set the backdrop.

(While cycles are a valuable tool in identifying when certain things and/or market action is a higher likelihood, it is the price action & indicators that must validate those cycles and trigger related signals – complete with specific risk points – identifying the ‘what’, ‘where’ and ‘how’ of trading.)

In early-April ’25, weekly cycles & trend indicators, Elliott Wave structure & range targets, weekly HLS levels (extreme downside targets) and 21 MAC/ MARC structure & interplay, monthly 21 MAC & MARC structure, and even Natural Year opening range analysis created that needed synergy when they combined to pinpoint April 7 – 11th as the ideal time for these metals to embark on powerful rallies.

Since then, they have surged after producing corroborating buy signals in mid-May and again in late-May ’25 – reinforcing the ‘golden opportunity’ described for Platinum traders (see INSIIDE Track excerpt on page 2), beginning in early-April ’25.

Since then, they have accelerated higher with Platinum now attacking its monthly LHR level (extreme upside monthly target) near 1320/PLN – the objective for this latest surge.  That initially fulfills the bullish signals triggered in early-June near 1040/ PLN… but does not yet signal a top.

In early June, Platinum fulfilled a ~4-week/27 – 28-day high-low-low-low-(low; June 2, ‘25) Cycle Progression and has now rallied for almost 2/3 of that cycle – ushering in a pivotal time.

All this action is powerfully confirming the outlook for 2025/2026 and the paradigm shift that has been forecast to unfold in April ’25 – April ’26 – with Platinum projected to surge – at the very least – from its ~880/PL low to ~1,500/PL and fulfill the minimum ‘rally = rally’ (‘C’ = ‘A’??) wave objective.

To reiterate, that is the minimum upside wave target.

Palladium is lagging but nearing the ideal time to accelerate higher.  As for other markets…

Stock Indices have hesitated near their highs since spiking higher & reversing lower last week, after extending their ~2-month rallies…

The DJIA fulfilled the Intra-Week Reversal while generating a weekly 2 Close Reversal lower – targeting a quick drop to ~41,200/DJIA.

If the DJIA were to close the week (on June 20th) below that level, it would also generate a pair of weekly 21 MAC (negative) signals.  It could also do that on the following weekly close (June 27th)…

The NQ-100 peaked 6 months/~180 degrees from its mid-Dec ’25 peak – while completing a .618 rebound in time (16 weeks down/10 weeks up) – as the Russell 2000 & S+P Midcap 400 completed 50% rebounds in time…

Gold & Silver remain near their highs, trading divergently as Gold rallies when geopolitical tensions exceed a range of ‘norm’ – while Silver hesitates.

In contrast, Gold retreats when those tensions enter a new ‘norm’ (or, more accurately, when traders are desensitized to the latest flare-up) and Silver resumes its ongoing rally.

Silver is still targeting a multi-month rally (from early-April) to 39.20 – 40.00/SIN, where the latest 4 monthly LHRs collide.

Silver also has a pair of range-trading targets surrounding 40.00/SIN that reinforce this upside target (~28.00 low – ~34.00 high – ~40.00/ SIN high AND ~28.00 low – ~32.00 low – ~36.00 high – ~40.00/SIN high) – demonstrating that these upside targets will still be valid after the month of June…

Silver just fulfilled a consistent ~4-week/27 – 28-day low (Feb 28) – high (Mar 28) – high (April 24/25) – high (May 22) – (high; June 18/19, ‘25) Cycle Progression that could spur a new multi-day pullback.

1 – 4 week traders could have exited July Silver long positions (entered in late-May at an avg of ~33.01) near 35.74 w/avg. gains of about $2,350/contract in the 1,000 oz contract ($11,700 in the SIN Comex 5,000 oz contract).  TRADING INVOLVES SUBSTANTIAL RISK!

The XAU & HUI are fulfilling the outlook for an overall advance into the middle part of June ’25 – an outlook that has been repeatedly reinforced by intervening price action.“


Stock Indexes are powerfully reinforcing analysis for surges to new all-time highs after confirming multi-month bottoms in early-April ’25 – when the culmination of 20 – 30+% plunges was forecast… and took hold.  At the time, they fulfilled major 1 – 2-year downside price targets and related 17-Year Cycle analysis for 2025 – reinforcing that a decisive bottom was forming.

Their monthly trend patterns, monthly 21 MACs & MARCs, monthly (and weekly) cycles & monthly downside objectives all argued for powerful rallies to catapult key indexes up to new all-time highs.  The multi-year wave structure concurred.  Along with metals, stocks have surged into mid-June and could enter a multi-week corrective phase before their next phase.

Silver, Platinum & Palladium fulfilled ongoing forecasts for major lows in early-April, triggering convincing buy signals that were followed by powerful surges.  Mid-May ’25 triggered another wave of bullish signals, reinforcing related analysis for new surges in the XAU & HUI (into mid-June and ultimately early-August).  Platinum possesses a minimum upside target at ~1500/PL.
