Summary

Gold/GLD: gold printed (overnight) a new hist’ high of $2772, but has cooled to $2722, pressured by further upside in bond yields and the moderately stronger dollar.

Silver/SLV: silver is powerfully lower, printing $33.61, washing out some of the weaker s/t bulls. Even the bold will favour gold, not least for a better geo-political fear bid.

GDX: miners whacked lower by silver/gold, and a weak main market.
