Silver Market Updates

Silver COT update

July 10, 2016

The problem we have in these computer-driven markets is that those machines know nothing of finesse like we long-time traders once practiced. They are either ALL-IN or ALL-OUT. Once any technical chart level gets tripped, the machines start firing off their buy or sell orders and the rest is then automatic. The larger this hedge fund long position gets, the larger the potential for a severe burst of selling becomes as the computers start closing out (liquidating) those longs IF A CHART SUPPORT…

Silver Market Morning: July-08-2016 -- Gold and silver prices consolidating before moving higher!

July 08, 2016

Whenever you get that feeling that the way higher is free of obstacles, profit taking usually kicks in or a simple pause or consolidation comes in. That’s what’s happening now. While we have not seen any physical gold sales out of the gold ETFs we follow until now, the appearance of one dampens euphoria. Today, is an expression of that.

How High Is "Sky-High" Silver?

July 06, 2016

Now that the precious metals’ five year cyclical bear market is acting like it's been replaced by a vibrant bull run in the opposite direction (up!), many analysts who chided the ongoing rise in the mining stocks and metals that started in December 2015 are begrudgingly changing their "outlook" so they don't get left behind.

The Deepening Fraud of Comex Silver

July 06, 2016

While it's clear that The Banks on The Comex are desperately feeding new paper contracts to The Specs in an effort to contain/restrain the gold price, at least there has been a coincident rise in the physical collateral backing the paper contracts. In silver, where the situation is equally tenuous, The Banks are issuing new paper contracts without conjuring up any additional physical collateral. The Banks are simply adding additional leverage to an already-teetering system and, in doing so,…

Commodities: Silver Skyrockets Post-Brexit, Energy is Back!

July 05, 2016

While commodity performance in Q1 was promising, it was mainly precious metals and zinc that buoyed everything else. Energy and base metals were relatively flat on the quarter, with uranium and natural gas having the biggest declines. However, the game changed considerably in Q2. We now live in a post-Brexit world, where the real risk of further contagion in Europe is prompting investors to seek insurance policies. Silver is hovering near the $20 mark, which makes it the best performing…

Silver Will Move Much Higher And Faster Than Most People Think

July 05, 2016

Historically, the silver price has a tendency to decline and rise way more and faster than most people expect. The recent 5-year decline is a good example of a decline that went lower than expected. There are good reasons for this, but we often miss it due to our focus on the now instead of the bigger picture.

Silver Market Morning: July-05-2016 -- Holiday over, U.S. will drive gold and silver prices!

July 05, 2016

Shanghai pulled the gold price back ahead of New York’s re-entry after Independence Day to a level not far from the close of last Thursday. We do expect a ‘shunt’ effect in New York as the three global gold markets return to a common view on the gold price. We expect the view that caused New York to take gold and silver prices higher on Friday, ahead of the long weekend; will return to move prices up today.
