Technical analysis

Silver prices moved lower as growth prospects dimmed. Prices remain above short-term support, which is seen near the 10-day moving average at 26.10. Resistance is seen near the 50-day moving average at 27.06. Short-term momentum has turned negative as the fast stochastic generated a crossover sell signal. Medium-term negative momentum has decelerated, and the MACD (moving average convergence divergence) index is poised to generate a crossover buy signal. The MACD histogram is printing in negative territory with a rising trajectory which points to consolidation.

Non-Manufacturing Data Slows

The U.S. ISM non-Manufacturing Index fell in June to 60.1, missing expectations that it would decline to 63.5 and down from 64.0 in May. Business production dropped -5.8 to 60.4. New orders, which is a gauge of future activity, dropped -1.8 to 62.1. Employment fell -6.0 to 49.3, back in contraction. This means that services providers believe that the “delta variant” could reduce future hiring.
