Silver Market Morning: Nov-14-2016 -- Gold and silver volatility to continue!

November 14, 2016

With the gold price and now the silver price continuing to fall today [well over $100 on the week] because of heavy sales from the gold ETFs many are, we feel, misreading the consequences of Trump’s impact on the economy regarding gold. With 30-year Treasuries falling in price leaving yields at 3% the dollar continues to surge as carry trades are unwound. We see these moves as part of the initial exuberance after the election. But the question is, “Just how far will this exuberance go?”

Market Report: Trumped!

November 11, 2016

By early European trade this morning (Friday) gold ended sharply lower on the week at $1255, down from $1304 at last Friday’s close. It appears this weakness is driven by futures markets, since physical spot gold and silver are in backwardation out to December’s delivery. The tightness in physicals is reflected in silver, which rose from $18.42 to $18.61 on the week by last night’s close (Thursday). Gold futures contracts exchanged-for-physical on Comex jumped on Wednesday and Thursday to 45…

Silver Market Morning: Nov-11-2016 -- Gold – more volatility to come. Silver - stable!

November 11, 2016

Volatility has not finished by a long way! First we saw a Trump Hump, then a Trump Dump! There is nothing yet to establish tomorrow’s realities. Hopes and expectations are all we have to go on. While, the re-building of the U.S.’ infrastructure is on the cards [with a major cut in Company tax, together with a small 10% tax on repatriated funds from overseas, paid for with debt] we have no doubt that deflation will halt and inflation take its place. But this process will take from two to three…

Silver Market Morning: Nov-10-2016 -- Volatile, Volatile, Volatile!

November 10, 2016

Volatility is what we saw in all global markets. We doubt the volume of trading in physical gold was that much, but dealers and speculators showed their confusion taking gold and silver prices very high at first only to pull them back to their lows later in the day. But as always these gentlemen are ‘full of sound and fury and signify nothing’. It certainly was no place for widows and orphans. As we can all see, the emotional content of all global financial markets was huge, sowing confusion…

Silver Market Morning: Nov-9-2016 -- Oops, President Trump!

November 09, 2016

The U.S. now knows that ‘Brexit’ feeling and then some! As you can see above, gold and silver will be direct beneficiaries. But here we are not just talking about a rise in prices, but a change in concept for gold, as we see global monetary turbulence, uncertainty and substantial changes to the status quo we have had for nearly a decade.

Silver Market Morning: Nov-8-2016 -- Gold price waiting for results?

November 08, 2016

Global financial markets are on hold until we hear the results of the U.S. Presidential results tomorrow. As we saw earlier in the last week, when Mrs. Clinton looked to be in trouble with the FBI, gold rose, discounting a Trump victory, but when exonerated, the gold price pulled back as a Clinton victory was discounted. At current levels a Clinton victory remains discounted in all world markets.

Silver’s Roadmap

November 07, 2016

History tends to repeat itself and the more similarities to a past pattern we have, the bigger likelihood that it will continue to repeat. The day-to-date price swings of silver may seem erratic, but from a broader point of view, they are repeating – to a great extent – the same pattern that we saw in the past. The most interesting thing is what followed that past pattern.

Silver Market Morning: Nov-7-2016 -- Gold price retreat as Clinton victory looms?

November 07, 2016

We see the price changes after Shanghai’s close as being dealers marking prices down without much physical dealing going on. The strength of the dollar today before London opened was seen as the reason gold prices were lowered. And the strong dollar was attributed to the conclusion that Mrs. Clinton is going to be the next U.S. President. In two days time we should know! Of course, if Trump wins, the action last Friday confirms that the gold price will sprint higher taking silver with it.

Market Report: Technical rally holds

November 04, 2016

It has been a better week for gold and silver, with gold rising from $1284 to $1302 by Friday mid-morning London time, and silver from $17.76 to $18.34. Gold in particularly found its support at the 200-day moving average, and has run into some predictable profit-taking at $1300, which is also the approximate location of the 55-day moving average.

Silver Market Morning: Nov-4-2016 -- Gold price consolidating around $1,300!

November 04, 2016

The gold price is sitting below heavy resistance, if this were treated as a normal Technical picture. But this overhead resistance is a position where few are likely to sell as stale bulls. With the prospect of prices moving higher current holders are back waiting where they were a short while ago when gold was last hear. After all, the gold price at over $1,320 was the ‘norm’ for a good part of the second half of the year and then driven by buyers who will hold for the long term, particularly…
