Analysis and Recommendations:
Silver walked right behind gold in today’s session. You could almost over the charts. Silver lost an addition 0.158 cents today, adding to yesterdays disappointing finish. The demand for metals has decreased with negative eco data from China today, compounded by the ongoing political saga’s in Europe. The white metal touched an intra-day low of $ 28.93/oz and ended its trading session at $ 29.02/oz.
Markets are still in risk aversion mode, but in late day trading the USD lost a bit of momentum, after some positive data on consumer sentiment, allowed traders to move to a bit more risk.
