The Australian government scrapped the 30% tax on mining profits today,  as the PM's fell the Australian mining sector made gains, that may have had downward pressure on gold and silver along with the fear of deflation in the EU, many are predicting a QE money printing program to be announced Thursday.

 

But none of that explains the way gold and silver fell off a cliff today, same old same old and yet again the regulators turn the other way.

The £ is giving the $ a major whooping. The € is hanging on in there so all is not lost.

 

Actually it's the other way round since it's the £ that's devaluing.  But I'm sure you all knew what I meant :)

Yeah but PM's are still on the rise, Silver is in the mid £11.90's now   :(  and the pound is still 2 cents down on the pre weekend price

And 5 days later they are £14.02  :(

 

I hope everyone managed to get some nice big purchases in last week

Thats a price not including delivery 

 

say you bought 50 maples at £14.02 

when delivery costs are added in they come out at 14.30 anyway each so still a great time to buy just a touch more than before and the premium stuff is always higher

Price changes are interesting today. There must be a lot of currency movement. I think the Pound is still losing ground against just about everything. And, quite astonishingly, the Euro has picked up a little. The Dollar is also strengthening. 

 

Predictions for silver? Sideways. It won't go anywhere until the markets weaken, and that aint gonna happen until the US stops printing money!

according to the news, they recon it`s down to the whole Scotland thing, I can`t see it somehow, but that`s what they seem to blame it on.

 

as for silver going up a little, anything at 50p a gram or less is still good :)

 

Financial/currency markets do not like uncertainty so I would guess it has some bearing on the £.

The problem with common sense is, its not that common.

Well, if the Dollar continues to rise on expectation of an interest rate hike, and commodities continue to drop and there is a No vote then a strengthened £ will allow for some good metal prices.... As long as something really bad doesn't happen.
