| Silver Recoups Sharp Loss And Rises 2% On Record Volume |
| Today’s AM fix was USD 1,378.75, EUR 1,070.21 and GBP 908.39 per ounce.
Yesterday’s AM fix was USD 1,353.75, EUR 1,051.95 and GBP 890.86 per ounce.
Gold climbed $19.40 or 1.43% yesterday to $1,384.30/oz and silver finished 2% higher.
Silver’s recovery yesterday from being 10% lower at one stage to recouping these losses and then rising over 2% was very positive technically. The key reversal is leading some to postulate that we may have seen the bottom or are close to a bottom.

| Gold market report: reduced volatility |
| This week has seen somewhat reduced volatility in precious metals, with gold ranging between $1,442 and $1,480 and silver between $23.20 and $24.60.

To help answer this question, let’s look at the position of the bullion banks on Comex, in the form of the four largest traders. The two charts below are for gold and silver, and representMonday, May 06, 2013 |

Waiting For Confirmation–  |
| Gold and Silver have been the hot trade over the last month. With both metals breaking down there was a lot of money to be made on the short side. There has also bee a great chance to make some money on the long side as both metals continue their bounce. The only long trade I initiated since that sell-off was the break UP from the silver pennant when it failed. I closed that trade out at the end of that day (Thurs).

| QUICK MARKET COMMENTARY |
| Despite further gold ETF liquidation in recent days and some short spec selling on futures exchanges, gold prices are moving higher on unrelenting physical demand for small bars, coins, and jewelry from the gold-friendly Asian markets as well as retail investment demand in US and European, especially for gold (and silver) bullion coins.
It is particularly encouraging to see gold move higher despite the stronger dollar (against the euro and yen, for example) . . . and at a time when equities areThursday, April 25, 2013 |

Short Covering Squeeze In Precious Metals and Miners?  |
| A week ago I wrote about a potential
rebound after capitulation and panic selling in precious metals and the
miners. It now appears Goldman Sachs (GS) is covering its short on gold as
it rebounds above $1400.
Meanwhile, many banks have helped confuse and misdirect the investment community
out of gold (GLD) and silver (SLV). This was a classic shakeout and bear trap
which may start a major short covering rally.

by James Anderson (Sales), Gold & Silver Staff
In mid-January of this year, the U.S. Mint announced that it was forced to suspend sales of 1-ounce American Eagle silver bullion coins because, “after just two weeks, it was sold out of its entire inventory.”
The demand for silver from small investors in the form of coins has been dramatic– “a record 7.5 million ounces of silver coins were sold in January.”
