Market outlook : silver

 
Silver June 2012 : spot price of silver along with important support and resistance areas
 
Back in 2010, QE2 (a controversial monetary easing strategy) was announced. Experts debated the strategy because many economists believe easing would lead to inflation that could spiral out of control down the road. Precious metals such as gold and silver (inflation hedges) naturally rallied after the announcement because traders began to price in inflation.


Eventually, those hyperinflation concerns drove silver to $49.82 in April 2011. However, only one year after its April 2011 crest, silver dropped back below $30. This retreat has many precious metal bugs salivating, thinking that another great buying opportunity is upon them.

Market outlook: silver (Aug 2012)

With this week’s rally, the silver futures market has broken a key monthly downtrend line dating back to the highs of last April and August 2011.  Silver has now formed a multi-month supportive base at $26.

If it can stay above $29.25, look for silver to travel to the top of its recent 12 month range, and approach the $36 area. The next important levels to watch above this area are $44 and $48.
