Summary

Yesterday saw considerable chop, but with price spiraling lower in the late afternoon, partly ‘inspired’, by NYC school closure chatter. S/t momentum settled on the very low side.

Overnight futures have been a little choppy, and we’re set to open flat/fractionally lower.

This morning’s higher dollar isn’t helping gold/silver, which is naturally impacting the related miners.
