As I hinted yesterday, SILVER and GOLD PRICES relaxed a bit today. The GOLD PRICE was pummeled, closing at $917.90, down $10.10,while silver dropped only 2.3 cents to $17.975.
Do y'all see the disagreement? The SILVER PRICE refused to back off the way gold did. With both metals blasting upward, that non-confirmation is positive. I expect silver and gold to close higher tomorrow, finishing out the week above $18 and $930. But I ought to add that if they do NOT end the week higher than today, that would taste of weakness.
The gold price is testing its 50% correction level, silver roughly 62% (actually 58%). It's not surprising a lot of sellers gang up on them at those predictable levels. Be patient. Keep buying silver and gold.
Turning the world upside down, it's not surprising after two days' fall of 427 points that the Dow would,bounce today -- but Oh! What a dead cat, only 24 points.
About the US DOLLAR INDEX. Today it climbed above 72 again to close at 72.146, up 25 basis points. Let us assess. If it dipped below 72, and doesn't again,fall below that, then the dollar has a double bottom,with the previous (lower) low. However, another close below 72 would be fatal at this stage.
Argentum et aurum comparenda sunt -- -- Gold and silver must be bought.
