Trading Update - Back Into Silver

Well, the bottom for silver was $33 as foreseen, but for various reasons I let it pass, and only got back in at the end of last week, at a little under $36. I'd be surprised if there isn't at least 10% to be had before the summer doldrums - purely MHO of course, and these are crazy 'conspiracy' markets.

Gold, needless to say, has soldiered on almost oblivious to the May massacre. Ditto oil: Brent has stayed resolutely in 3 figures throughout the carnage, and is now back on the steady rising trend that began at $70 less than a year ago (from under $40 at the end of 2008, lest it be forgot).

So - QE3 ? or even permanent rolling QE. It won't just be the FTSE that will see the 'benefit' ...

Gold seems to be struggling at the moment, almost painting a double top, I think $1560 is the limit before the summer hols.
Silver is playing catch-up for now, but if any of the rumours about evapourating inventories are proven, it could go ballastic.
As for crude I think we'll have to get used to staying above $100 for this decade!

"permanent rolling QE" if so why not give the money directly to the people to pay into the banks - almost the same effect. Just a small diversion that would encourage the populace to "believe" in money printing!
