June 23rd, 2022 - Market Update
Gold and silver are both under some pressure this morning, with gold price currently trading at $1826.70 down $12.30 or 0.67% and silver price at $21.21 down $0.31 or 1.45%. The strength in the US Dollar Index is influencing lower metal prices, with the index moving from 104.08 to 104.616 within the past couple of hours, it correlates directly with the move in metals. On the bond side, the 10-year has gone from 3.089% to 3.136%, a small move but in the right direction for lower metal prices. We will continue to monitor both markets to see if we get a test of the previous support on gold at $1807ish and on silver at $21. With the volatility we've had as of late in this market, nothing is off the table. This morning at 8:30 AM ET, we will have the continuing jobless and initial jobless claims, which traders/investors will be monitoring to gauge the employment picture. Then at 10 AM ET, you have the Feds Powell speaking, which we will be watching. Many economists are saying that we are at the beginning of a recession, any hint of this type of language out of Powell, and you can rest assured the market will react. It is easy to get discouraged in a market like this, especially if you're of the mindset that you need to buy at the market's low. Being in the market close to the low is often better than being out of the market waiting for the low and missing it.
