This has been a long trend change as can easily be seen from this chart. The trend is bottoming and may be starting a reversal. Again, these things tend to play out over long periods of time. Don't expect to start day trading this next week.
Disclosure: I added initial positions in the gold and silver miners last week. I expect to add to them if the markets confirm. I have been hedging them against a 'market crash' in US equities such as the panic selloff in late 2008 which took us into the market lows.
