Though this might sound political in nature, I just have one question: how far do you think silver and gold will drop to price in the recent U.S. election. I can see that they have already taken quite the hit. Any opinions on how far before bottom?

    It is a fair question. I’m wondering myself, with my finger hovering tentatively over that “sell” trigger…

    Gold went up from $2000 in March to $2800 the beginning of Nov. It is/was due for a 10% correction just to regroup. I retired one of my gold sets and sold quite a bit the past 3 weeks to take some profits in the mid 2700's, as I thought it had gone up too fast.

    It also now has a head and shoulder top with the head at $2800. I think $2615 or around there is some first good support at the Oct low. Around $2,525 is major support (10% down at Sept. low) and I would expect it to start back up from there. End of year variables also in play now. Good luck.

    The 10-year Treasury yield is going up on expectations that both nominal GDP growth and inflation will be heading higher.

    We've had a major upward move in the 10-year yield in the last 24 hours.....week....and last few months.

    I suspect gold will catch a bid shortly. Watch the 10-year yield...unless it drops big-time gold should rebound.

    Nothing fundamentally significant to gold or silver has changed.

    We did not automatically become fiscally responsible. “Stackin Jacks “ is my motto. And drops (in price) afford opportunities ( in markets).

    That's right. I shall use it as a buying opportunity.
