Miners (HUI) to gold linear regression still intact
A year ago the new linear regression between major gold miners (represented by the HUI gold miners index) and the gold price has been revealed. With the yellow metal now way above the interval used to derive the regression relationship, it has been verified that the linear regression still holds.
Despite a landslide plunge of miners during the Corona pandemic frenzy, both the yellow metal and miners recovered well, with the linear regression challenged but not broken, as was revealed in an previous posting : Revival of gold mines – Corona dip overcome.
After the yellow metal has been steaming up to and easily breaking its Aug 2011 all time high, it is useful to verify the regression relationship and verify parameters for any possible creep.
In order to derive a linear trend between two time dependent variables, it is necessary to eliminate time, retaining only the couples of variables. Here (HUI, Gold) couples are retained, whereby the gold price on the horizontal axis is used to ‘explain’ the aggregate price level of miners as revealed by the HUI index.

One year later, this is how the regression line looks like:
HUI – Gold linear regression since Aug 2018: brown observed values and black regression line. |
As explained before the ‘Corona dip’ shows up as a belly of values beneath the regression line showing up between about $1475 and 1675. As gold finally broke above $1800 early July, miners convincingly took the lead with a tiny set of values above the regression line till about the 2011 all-time-high.
The slope derived on the extended set is 0.270 against 0.261 mid May and 0.268 in Sep 2019. Not only did the regression relationship hold, the parameter creep we suffered upon the Corona dip also has been reversed.
Thus leads to following linear regression : HUI = 0.27 . (Gold – $699)
Moreover the correlation meanwhile improved to 0.947, where it only stood at 0.901 mid May. Last year the correlation also posted near 0.95.
