"Some August weakness wouldn't be abnormal and should be viewed as a great buying opportunity," say resource experts Pamela and Mary Anne Aden.
As they discuss in their advisory service, The Aden Forecast, from a longer-term perspective they remain bullish on gold and oil as well as stocks, particularly those in the tech sector.
They explain, "One thing is pretty clear: most markets are overbought for the time being, but in the bigger picture they're clearly oversold (in an area that normally coincides with major market bottoms).
"The stock market's major trend is clearly up, signaling stocks are going to rise further in the months ahead, and probably beyond.
"This secular bull market was also confirmed by Richard Russell's Dow Theory when the Dow Transportations surpassed their June high late last week.
"For now, the market will remain very strong above the following levels: Dow Industrials 8550, Dow Transports 3300 and Nasdaq 1850.
"We recently recommended buying new stock positions in PowerShares QQQ (NASDAQ: QQQQ), iShares S&P North America Technology (NYSE: IGM) and iShares S&P Global Technology (NYSE: IXN).
"Meanwhile, gold and silver are not overbought and the 'C rise' is still underway. August is another seasonally slow month for gold, so if we have more sluggishness it could be this month.
"Gold has support at $920; let's see if it holds. Silver has support at $12.65. We recommend keeping your positions. We are set for the next wave up. Meanwhile, even though oil has come down, it's firm and solid above $60, and it has great potential."

The Aden sisters are the best overall market analyists in the business and their charts are top notch. You won't lose money playing their advice long term. For traders you can fine tune charts with stockcharts.com or your brokers charting packages. Remember oil has backed the US dollar since 1971-Nixon and our military controls the best pools but it is draining the domestic economy and running up HUGE debts and fiscal obligations. Better to hold real commodiites than paper dollars now especialy as interest rates are virtually zero.
