HPCsoYESTERDAY Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 I think that $50 is on the cards for September and once we are through it it will act as support, bit like the $1000 level for gold. why next month in particular? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixel8r Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 why next month in particular? Because September & May are usually the best months historically for gold and silver price appreciation. Silver (CMX): (High: May or Sep//Low: Jun or Dec) The effects of the normal contango price structure are especially pronounced. With each successive contract priced at a premium to reflect carrying charges, rollover produces a deceptive "rally." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixel8r Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 historically speaking, the summer move in gold was not the norm, hence i wonder how valid these seasonal trends are this late into the bull with gold coming off its recent highs, i cannot see the momentum for the move in silver just yet Well I think the move this summer was due to the continuing worsening of the situation, I am expecting this September to be even more dramatic than usual. The paper price of Silver has been beaten up from the 5 margin hikes, but all that has done really is increase the demand for the physical metal. In the end the physical demand will over power the paper games. Did you see this snippet from Ted Butler's subscription service, which was published by Ed Steer today? It looks like this could be the start of the commercial signal failure which has long been talked about. The commercials buying in a rising market certainly talks of pent up momentum to me. "From the COT report of August 2nd to the current report, the total commercial net short position [in gold] has been reduced by more than 57,000 contracts (5.7 million oz), as all three commercial categories bought short positions back aggressively. There should be no question that this commercial buying was the prime force behind the $300 surge in gold from August 1st thru the peak above $1,900. There should also be no question that the commercials uniformly panicked and took massive losses on their buybacks, as the technical funds and other longs cashed out at massive profits. This had never before happened in gold market history. The bottom line is that the buying back of commercial short COMEX gold contracts caused the price to explode. I believe the commer cials also bought back another large chunk of short positions on the big gold price decline after the Tuesday cut-off. Make no mistake – whether the commercials are buying back on price rallies or declines, they are booking massive losses on the buyback. That has never occurred before."

Carlton Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 He added, “This bull trend will end all the other major bull markets,” and singled out debt capital as an asset class for which demand and prices would decline. ...In addition, Gmuer said silver is set for an even greater upward run than gold, with the market due to correct a distortion in its pricing of silver in relation to gold. Gold and silver currently price at a ratio of around 45:1. However, Gmuer said declining silver output over the last 60 years—as a result of inventory depletion and mine closures—meant silver supplies currently outnumber gold by a ratio of less than 10:1, thus indicating a market correction is due. Once this occurs, Gmuer said that silver prices would settle at 10 percent to 15 percent of gold. This implies that if gold reaches $6,200 per ounce, silver will peak at between $620 and $930 per ounce. http://www.cnbc.com/id/44373049 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntergatherer Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Silver Prices Drop As Global Economic Fears Rise September 6, 2011 8:46 AM Prospects of a global slowdown, perhaps even a worldwide recession, weighed on silver Tuesday, leading traders to bid down the price of the metal as well as shares of companies that produce it. About half of silver's total world demand stems from industrial customers, so any sign of a slowdown in industrial activity hits silver assets particularly hard. http://www.ibtimes.com/news/209189/20110906/forex/silver.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Paragon Report: Silver Demand Declines Friday September 9, 2011 12:26 PM The Paragon Report, a New York based independent research portal, notes that there is a marked drop in demand for silver due to slowing in global production. More than half of the demand in silver is generated through industrial applications. According to the report, Silver Wheaton (NYSE: SLW.TO) amended their 2011 production tally in response to a slower than anticipated production ramp-up at their Panasquito mine located in Mexico. Silver production declined from 28 million to 25 million silver equivalent ounces, including 15,000 ounces of gold. Meanwhile Silvercorp Metals (NYSE: SVM, TSX: SVM) saw a 31 percent increase in silver production costs during its most recent quarter. The company posted record fiscal revenues of US$69.7 million corresponding to a 90 percent increase from the last quarter. http://www.kitco.com/reports/KitcoNews20110909_MM.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traders and investors are grappled with fear since the current crisis could cause a decline in demand for industrial silver. Another interesting point that has come forward is the growing inflation rate in China, hindering a country's growth that along with Brazil and other developing countries has until now ceased further recession dips. Across global markets, Friday and Monday have shown renewed improvement suggesting investors nature to risk probabilities. Silver as an industrial metal is demonstrating a reestablished interest, helping to stabilize prices. Silver's role to buoy prices and act as a safe haven asset depends much on its role as an industrial metal. Silver investors need to look deep into this factor of the need of silver as a commodity in the industrial sector. Despite anticipation of another recession, optimism still rules in favor of silver that there would be increasing demand from developing countries for silver intended for agricultural, industrial and energy-based goods. In spite of the fact that investment markets eat a major part of pie share in silver demand, industrial use of silver is still the largest market, advancing from 349.7 million ounces in 2001 to 487.4 million ounces in 2010. Presently, industrial demand for silver is 50% but is expected to increase to 70% by the next decade... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's simply saying that based on a historic 16 - 1 ratio silver should be $86.75 based on the price of gold at the time the article was written, $1,389. Did you read it before you posted it?
