Somebody has to explain the silver and GOLD PRICE laziness here. The price of gold can't get over its 20 DMA ($1,070.52) or its $1,080 resistance. Silver has just gone plumb to sleep.
Odd, this behavior. Odder still with today's big US dollar index tumble. Silver and gold price charts still look fine, indicators all point up, both have traced out V-bottoms, both have begun climbing. Only remains to ask, Why are they stalled?
Durn! Y'all didn't expect me to know, did you? I'm no more'n a nat'ral born durn fool from Tennessee. I can ask a milyun questions, but can't answer a danged one. Course, sometimes asking the RIGHT question might be better than spoutin' a bunch of no-good answers.
Bottom line is markets are worried, worried today, but that worry isn't slopping over into demand for silver and gold prices -- yet.

Santa Claus rally notwithstanding, stocks can't get up and fly. Dow sank 15.67 (0.77%) to 17,492.30. S&P500, however, fell much more, 13.53 or 1.17% to 2,047.62. Dow in Gold and Dow in Silver turned down again, too.

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.
