    I think Kitco is messing up, it seems that the difference in dollars is ten times what it should be.
    I read Ag high $15.58 and now $15.51 with a drop of $0.79 instead of $0.07.

    Always tough to determine the previous fix price. Especially when holidays are involved.

    I'm expecting a substantial change between now and Monday evening. Demand for COMEX delivery on Monday will determine which direction. image

    You don't have to wait for COMEX...remember, APMEX has a sale on ASE's, and we all know what that means.image

    $20 drop in gold so far on an "epic" gap down at the oversea open. Never seen a spot gold gap at $7 wide before ($1160-$1167). Silver was about 10c which equates to a $7.5 gold gap (75-1). Silver has filled that gap on a bounce but has since given it all back. Gaps of that size are extremely rare. If that gap doesn't fill within 24-48 hrs the potential of tanking through $1130 is quite realistic.

    Silver just collapsed on a bigger gap down (30c) to $14.41. That's at the 2006-2007 support ledge of $14.50-$14.60. That would equate to a >$20 gap in gold. Epic squared. Incredible hits. Gold to silver ratio with a 5 pt spike to 79.2. That meets the first target of 78 in the 13 month cup with handle pattern. And there's a bigger 5 year pattern still out there pointing much higher.

    Switzerland is the excuse

    The real reason is the run up is now history and the run down is in full force.

    Yep, at least briefly silver was down 9% in minutes. Essentially a $1 drop in seconds.

    Kitco Friday closes were gold at $1169.50 and silver at $15.68.

    At 7:00 pm, they are reading $1151.30 and $14.74 with a GSR of 78.11.

    Time to buy silver.

    I have been wrong before, and will be again. I meant to comment about exchanging gold for silver (ref comment on the GSR) but it didn't quite come out that way.

    Or a time to swap "some" of your gold holdings for silver. If GSR heads to 90, 100, or higher, both metals will continue to get punished. Momentum and longer term chart patterns suggest silver could under-perform gold for quite some time still. It's still up to the dollar (Euro), and the USD/Yen, USD/AUD currency crosses. They've been driving the bus since early to mid 2011. If that bus just got on the Autobahn for an acceleration run, that could be a problem for the PM bulls.

    Those who still think manipulation isn't happening should be biyitch slapped about the face repeatedly. This is a CLASSIC example of it.
    Thinly traded market over a US holiday weekend and someone with the ability to cause this IS making it a reality. I say that's manipulation by definition.

    I AGREE...It was quite apparent all last week that the Swiss referendum would be voted down and still Gold traded above 1200.00...Until the holiday set in...Thinly traded markets overseas on Thanksgiving were hit to the down side, which continued into Friday's thinly traded US Market's BLOOD BATH....and now...even though the Swiss voted came out as expected...a new round of selling occurs during thinly traded Sunday night Far East trading.....And NO ONE in power give a rats ass to look into it....Precious metal trading is dirty...right from the top....to the regulators that look the other way...

    I suppose manipulation is the cause for the partial recovery that is occurring. All you conspiracy nuts ... get a life and stop reading all the internet tabloids. Thin trading is a fact of life when the US market is closed.
