Silver Market Updates

Silver Market Morning: Sep-2-2016 -- Gold and silver consolidating above $1,300!

September 02, 2016

This week alone has seen attempts on COMEX to crush the gold price with High Frequency Trading dumping $1.5 billion worth of Futures contracts onto the market. The day before yesterday and yesterday saw over 17 tonnes of gold dropped into the physical market [which should feed through to London] and yet the gold price in the last day has bounced off $1,306.

Silver Market Morning: Aug-31-2016 -- Gold and silver slipping but sitting on strong support above $1,300!

Shanghai was stronger than New York yesterday, then London walked the middle road opening at $1,313. The dollar is again strong today, but the Yuan was slightly stronger still. We are aware of the care with which the People’s Bank of China is handling the exchange rate so as to not appear to be purposely devaluing against the dollar, with only a month to go before the Yuan is home and dry as part of the S.D.R.

Silver Market Morning: Aug-30-2016 -- Gold and silver sitting on strong support above $1,300!

The silver price is moving higher at $18.70 at London’s opening and is doing so while gold’s moves looked like they may continue to go down. Once again we are seeing greater vigor in the silver price on the upside just as it demonstrated vigor when falling down from over $20. The fundamentals of gold are weighed in favor of an upside move back to that level, so now we wait to see what New York will do with the silver price.

How GDP conceals inflation

August 26, 2016
By SilverSeek

GDP statistics only capture an incomplete snapshot of the economy at one moment in time. Since the economy is continually evolving, that snapshot is immediately out of date, and therefore unfit for the purpose of economic planning. Furthermore, being an incomplete picture of the total economy, GDP badly misleads policy-makers on the subject of price inflation.

Silver Market Morning: Aug-26-2016 -- Gold and silver trying to rise from very low levels!

August 26, 2016

The gold price, we feel is now forming an attractive short term pattern that should be positive for gold. The gold price fall was an ‘engineered fall’ that did not represent the physical state of the market. Here we are in the last week of August, ahead of the ‘gold season’. This is one of the last weeks when the gold ‘bears’ could do this. Before the fall the Technical picture moved to a point where a strong move was possible either way. This was, with hindsight an invitation to them to do…

Silver Market Morning: Aug-25-2016 -- Gold and silver prices fall to support!

August 25, 2016

Shanghai lifted prices slightly in both the morning and afternoon fixes. But they did allow the U.S. prices to guide them. While Shanghai can lead gold prices we feel that at least until October 1st they will take a low profile by remaining roughly in synch with western gold markets. Perhaps the fall in gold prices was a dealer-led pull back ahead of Janet Yellen’s Friday speech. This discounts an announcement that a rate hike will happen very soon. If she does not imply that, then we see the…

Silver Market Morning: Aug-24-2016 -- Gold and silver prices in a tight trading range!

August 24, 2016

Once again, overall, all global gold markets, together with global currencies seem to be moving sideways today with an emphasis on a slightly stronger dollar. But this strength is small. So we have gold prices in the dollar falling and those in the euro rising. Friday’s Jackson Hole comments by Mrs. Yellen of the Fed are the focal point of the week with markets finely measuring the emphasis she puts on her words, looking for the smallest sign of what the Fed is going to do and when.

Silver Market Morning: Aug-23-2016 -- Gold and silver prices being moved on exchange rates only

August 23, 2016

The market in gold remains sensitive to exchange rate moves and to purchases and sales in the gold ETFs There is little else of substance to move these prices currently. Janet Yellen is due to speak today, but is expected to remain dovish on rate hikes. Hence the better tone in the gold market. China has been given the OK to issue an S.D.R. bond, purchasable in Renminbi only, by the World Bank. This new bond issuance is 2 billion SDRs which is equivalent to $2.8 billion.

Silver Analysis

August 20, 2016
By SilverSeek

As I have been noting of late, both gold and silver have been trapped in sideways trading patterns for some time now, meaning that there really has not been a whole lot worth saying about the price action in either metal. That MIGHT POSSIBLY be changing in regards to silver. The reason is simple – price is down at the very bottom of the sideways trading range that has been intact for nearly seven weeks.

Market Report: Rothschild buys gold

August 19, 2016
By SilverSeek

The gold price rose $11 from last Friday’s close to trade at $1347 early in European trade this morning, while silver declined 14 cents over the same period to $19.57. Volumes on Comex have dropped off noticeably this month, consistent with the holiday season. However, these are the conditions which favour the bullion banks, allowing them to take over pricing control. When the speculators are on holiday, prices can be marked down unchallenged, allowing the bullion banks to close down their…
