The SILVER PRICE, it's true, punched into its 50 and 20 DMA's today, but in spite of its heroic rise to $16.48, finished the day only 1.3% better than it had started. I feel like somebody has shortchanged me, or the plastic gun I saved three weeks for broke the first time I played with it. Still, momentum indicators have turned up, and silver's 200 DMA stands only at $16.74. A 60 cent move is nothing for silver when it has its back up. Next week it should exploit today's gain.
I'm telling y'all, this is bottoming you are watching. This is the time you ought to be accumulating silver and gold. Low will come between now and mid-July. Besides, would you prefer to leave your money in the bank making 0.25%?
I will be away at Lake Pickwick with my sons tomorrow, so I won't be here to write a commentary. Accordingly, I'm closing out the week with Thursday. Trends are clear enough: stocks have perhaps begun their last little rally, US dollar index confirmed its intent to tunnel to the earth's core, silver and gold prices are rallying.
At one point today the US dollar index, leprous king among scrofulous fiat currencies, had dropped to 93.3, 119 basis points below yesterday's close. However, it clawed its scrawny, repulsive self back up to 94.24, down only 25 basis points (0.26%) for the week. My o my, last week it closed 94.99, so for the week it's down a clean and perfect 75 bps. Them fingerprints look like the heavy hand of the Nice Government Men, Mama.
Euro finally is reaching for something. Closed $1.1368, up 0.29%, and nearer to the last high at $1.1469. Clearly the Fear of Greece hath left it. Maybe, but that goose ain't cooked through just yet.
'Bout the time you count a market out, it snaps back. Yen gapped up today and rose 0.38% to 81.34. Why, it's above its 20 day moving average.

Dow in Gold fell away from the upper gator jaw again and ended the week below its 20 and 50 DMAs. Ended at G$311.73 gold dollars (15.08 troy ounces). Chart's on the right:
Dow in Silver remains above its moving averages, but has never reached the upper gator jaw on this latest rise. Ended at S$1,452.10 (1,123.11 troy ounces).
Oh, when it cometh, that fall shall be great!
Y'all enjoy your weekend.

WARNING AND DISCLAIMER. Be advised and warned:
Do NOT use these commentaries to trade futures contracts. I don't intend them for that or write them with that short term trading outlook. I write them for long-term investors in physical metals. Take them as entertainment, but not as a timing service for futures.
NOR do I recommend investing in gold or silver Exchange Trade Funds (ETFs). Those are NOT physical metal and I fear one day one or another may go up in smoke. Unless you can breathe smoke, stay away. Call me paranoid, but the surviving rabbit is wary of traps.
NOR do I recommend trading futures options or other leveraged paper gold and silver products. These are not for the inexperienced.
NOR do I recommend buying gold and silver on margin or with debt.
What DO I recommend? Physical gold and silver coins and bars in your own hands.
One final warning: NEVER insert a 747 Jumbo Jet up your nose.
