What a wild ride here in the markets over the past few months. This could only be the beginning. Gold stocks have been on fire since we first heard about COVID-19 in China.

With the state of Georgia opening on Friday, we can see how social distancing will work on a small scale. This is one of many more steps that will have to be taken for our economy to open. We will need testing and then antibody testing. This to me sounds like a lot of uncertainty.

But even so, we are just now opening parts of the country but likely still have a long way to go for the world’s economy to get anywhere near normal. Investors do not like uncertainty as you have seen since the beginning of April.
Gold stock leaders have almost doubled in price. In fact, some gold stocks have approached February highs. I know as investors we always want to buy low and sell high.

Barrick Gold Corp (GOLD Stock Report) (ABX) is trading around $27 and like EGO, trading above its 50- and 200-day moving averages which is also bullish. Barrick is sitting at 52-week highs you must go back to 2013 to find Barrick Gold stock’s next support and resistance. The next major resistance is around the $30 area.
