Analysis and Recommendations:

Silver did not fare as well as gold did in today’s trading, losing over 0.13 to trade at 28.33. In early trading silver followed cue from gold and moved up but the initial gains due to the news of the Spanish bailout, may not remain intact throughout the day as they still not mentioned the way to disburse the loan. In absence of any economic releases from the globe and doubt over the funds may keep market under pressure ahead of Greece re-election on June-17.

Taking cues from fall in gold prices coupled with mixed performance in base metals, Spot silver also declined by 0.6 percent in last week. However, weakness in the DX restricted further downside in the silver prices.

On a weekly basis, holdings in the iShares Silver Trust, the world’s largest silver-backed exchange-traded fund, increased around 0.3 percent to 9,643.17 tons on 1st June 2012 from the previous level of 9,669.08 tons on 8thJune 2012.
