Summary

Gold/GLD: gold printed $2015… not great, but its still managing to hold above giant psy’ $2K. Set for a net weekly decline of -0.6%.

Silver/SLV: silver printed a low of $22.81. I’d still favour Gold. Set for a net weekly gain of +0.8%.

GDX: miners have seen early gains fully fade, not helped by gold/silver, and a marginally shaky main market. Set for a net weekly gain of +1.5%.

*I hold the quartet of NEM, GOLD, AG, HL. I’m tempted to buy back AEM, but not until next Monday.

notable gold miner: AEM

notable silver miner: AG
