Looks like they got the call overnight to stomp silver back down. Currently, gains from yesterday are gone. Gold faring a little better, but that will change.
Dollar looks to open higher, but 10 yr. down 3 bips.
This action from Friday makes a lot of sense if the Fed is about to cut. If they do, despite their best efforts, gold and silver will explode. That’s the only hope I can see. Otherwise, it will probably be another long and ugly summer of despair.
