Potential For A Big Reversal in Gold Stocks (Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX), Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF (GDXJ))

Gold stocks were down another 5 percent but they are still way up on the year but we have seen a significant correction on the speculation that the Federal Reserve might raise interest rates, of course they might not.

We are going to have a jobs report on Friday and if it is really a weak report, all the rate hikes are completely off the table once again. So there is potential for a huge reversal if we get a really weak jobs number.
