The silver market continues to see inflow on Thursday, despite the massive selling that we have seen recently. With this, the market looks to bounce, but be careful, drops like we have seen rarely happen in a vacuum.
The silver market initially pulled back just a bit during the trading session on Thursday, but then rallied to start to recover. The question here is whether or not this recovery will actually matter. After all, this is a market that has been absolutely pummeled over the last couple of days. And I think you have a serious problem with the idea of this volatility, perhaps causing massive amounts of problems with stability, this stability that has gone missing from the market.
I think, really at this point it is going to continue to be the main story here with the $47 level offering a massive floor in the market. And this would be an area that we have to defend. If we cannot defend this area, I think you’ve got a real problem. I think more likely than not, we start to unwind the overall trend.
One problem that I think you need to keep in mind is that moves like this don’t happen in a vacuum, given the type of selling we’ve seen. I’d be very cautious here. I think this could just end up being a uh short-term relief rally. The type of selling that occurred, like I said, best case scenario, we may stabilize for a while, but I think the impulsive parabolic move is all but done at this point. The $50 level above will be a major area of contention. So, watch that. If we can’t get above $50, that might be your clue that the trend is about to change.
