Silver Market Update

December 31, 2018

On the 6-month chart we can see that while gold continued to advance in December, albeit incrementally, silver continued to be restrained by the resistance at the upper boundary of what is now clear is a Double Bottom base pattern, until several days ago when, under increasing positive influence from gold, it broke clear above it. Since it has arrived at resistance at its falling 200-day moving average it is entitled to take a rest here, if it feels so inclined, and consolidate or perhaps react…

Silver Market Update

December 16, 2018

Silver is now very cheap compared to gold (as is platinum) and recently hit a 24-year low reading as can be seen on the latest chart for the silver to gold ratio shown below, which means two things – one it is very good value relative to gold, and the other is that this kind of extreme normally occurs ahead of a major new sector bullmarket. Silver is also cheap relative to its average AISC (all-in sustaining cost of production) which implies a shortage down the road and much higher prices.

INVESTMENT DEMAND: Still The Largest Growth Sector In The Silver Market

November 28, 2018

Even though interest in precious metals has fallen over the past few years, investment demand is still the largest growth sector in the silver market. Yes, it may be hard to believe, but physical silver investment has grown the most since the 2008 financial crisis compared to the other sectors. And while industrial users consume the highest amount of silver in the overall market annually, its total demand has fallen over the past decade.

Silver Scandal

November 26, 2018

A few follow up comments about the still rather remarkable announcement by the Department of Justice concerning the guilty plea by the former JPMorgan trader for spoofing in precious metals. Contained in the announcement was the statement that the guilty plea was accepted and sealed on Oct 9, nearly a month before it was unsealed on Nov 6. With a rather short sentencing date approaching on Dec 19, and the time it took to unseal the plea, it may be assumed that the trader has already fully…

Silver Miners’ Q3’18 Fundamentals

The major silver miners’ stocks have been largely abandoned this year, spiraling to brutal multi-year lows. Such miserable technicals have exacerbated the extreme bearishness plaguing this tiny contrarian sector. While profitable silver mining is challenging at today’s exceedingly-low silver prices, these miners are chugging along. Their recently-reported Q3’18 results show their earnings are ready to soar as silver recovers.
