This week's Premium Update discusses the very recent breakout in the USD Index and how it could influence the general stock market, gold, silver and mining stocks. In today's level of globalization of financial markets, no asset can move completely on its own and this update reflects that as we explain how different markets might respond to different influences.

How low could euro go? Why is gold rising along with the U.S. Dollar and what does it imply? How significant are the seasonal patterns in June for gold, silver, and mining stocks? There are just a few of the questions that we deal with in this week's update.

The 18 charts that we've analyzed this week cover i.a.: the USD Index, the Euro Index, general stock market, gold, silver, the HUI Index, GLD ETF, precious metals correlation matrix, the Broker-Dealer Index, and June seasonal charts.
