Analysis and Recommendations:

Silver is trading at 34.912 just a drop down on profit taking. Silver prices declined 0.2 percent today taking cues from weakness in the base metals pack. Additionally, strength in the DX also acted as a bearish factor for the spot silver prices.

A surprising report in Germany showed a large drop in factory orders, which weighed on the metals today. Also the BoJ surprised traders and held rates and policy, when analysts were thinking that we would see some sort of stimulus to help bring down the value of the JPY. The lack of stimulus weighed on industrial metals also.
