Silver Fundamental Analysis July 24, 2012, Forecast

Analysis and Recommendations:

Silver is trading late in the day at 26.80 down over 1.84% taking cues from downside in gold and base metals prices, Spot silver prices declined 1.3 percent today. Additionally, strength in the DX also acted as a negative factor for the silver prices. The white metal touched an intraday low of $26.72/oz and hovered around $26.83/oz

As investors shied away from anything connected with the eurozone, the euro plummeted to 11 year lows pressurizing both precious metal and industrial metals. Also comments from an advisor to the People Bank of China, that China may see growth decline to 7.4% by year end, left the markets worried.
