Silver (very short-term)

 

Silver will either hold at current levels or make a strong move, one way or the other, today in New York.

 

Price Drivers

Gold – When you hear the head of the European Central Bank say that the financial “situation in the Eurozone is unsustainable” and other E.U. leaders start talking about the collapse]]se of the Eurozone, then you know that they are preparing us all for the inevitable. With the euro down another 50 cents, money continues to flee from Europe.

 

At the moment of writing this the currency markets and the gold price were calm. As we say above, this may precede a strong move as we all sit waiting for more bad news.

 

The critical factor for gold and silver is, will it continue to move with the dollar as it has done this week and rise in the euro?

 

The financial winds that are blowing at present, point to recession throughout the developed world, lower growth in the emerging world and the probable need to pump more money into the system to keep it fluid and avoid considerably more asset deflation. We don’t think this will show itself as a gentle decline, but as a series of lurches lower. After four years of crises and attempts by governments to repair the situations have failed due to a hormone deficiency, one wonders what actions will be taken by governments now. Whatever they are they will have to be dramatic to counter accelerating deflation.

 

Silver – Silver pulled back slightly with gold. It too is waiting for the next piece of bad news to give it direction. This weekend may well hear some significant announcements made.
