Summary

Gold/GLD: gold printed $1940, partly just an ongoing s/t trend… partly the moderately stronger dollar. The concern should be bond yields, which look prone to climbing across the summer. If the US 10yr >4.10%, gold looks highly vulnerable to around $1700.

Silver/SLV: silver printed $23.10, not helped by the main market, and the stronger dollar. It remains difficult not to see sub $20 late summer/fall.

GDX: miners smashed lower, especially pressured by silver.
