They’ve held together all week despite the weak metals.
Hopefully the metals get back on track next week even though we lost the battle for the $33’s.
Never know. I was bummed to see Michael Lynch’s report on deliveries, hope we haven’t topped out.
Nice close for the shares
SM sure took a quick header
Course, took us with it, especially silver.
Probably not good on a Friday
deer79 – maybe we’re finished after all.
David Hunter is one of the best
David Hunter WARNS: Final Melt-Up to S&P 8000 – Then an 80 % Crash
From Michael Lynch
- Last night was first notice on the June contract and 20,105 contracts (prelim number) stood for delivery. That is far less than the two previous active month contracts indicating the physical gold rush is over, or at least paused. See the trend on the plot below.
The prime mover of the 2025 buying binge has been non-bullion banks as I’ve written numerous times. I focus on non-banks because banks tend to flip metal whereas non-banks tend to hold positions for a longer period which is more representative of true demand.
The non-bullion banks were slight net sellers on the June contract. This is a sharp change from the prior 3 contracts where they were on a buying binge adding a net 3.2 million oz. See the trend on the plot below:

Been posting that platinum will break out soon, and it is now happening.
PLATINUM has broken out on weekly time frame, and it is now in the making of doing it on all bigger time frames – monthly, quarterly and yearly.
The secular bull market for platinum is now resuming.
Morning deer79
Weird start to the day. Shares volatile in this first hour. Dollar firming up.
We’ll see if it lasts all day. They are losing the war despite these end of month shenanigans.
They’ve got rates moving down some too. I’m not sure a bond market rally is out of the question, there may be some players that want to get out in front of the Fed. Falling rates used to be good for pm’s and bad for the dollar, have they changed the rules?
A valiant battle
but it looks like the algos will win the battle today (still early), but will eventually lose the war….
Numbers were inline
Everything was spot on except that personal income was better 0.8% vs. 0.3% That’s actually good news.
Nothing bad enough to hurt us, in fact silver and some silver shares are perking up. Gold slowly creeping up too as the dollar goes flat.

Hanging out
Not much movement in the last few hours.
There’ quite a bit of eco data this am PCE’s, Chicago PMI’s. that could make a difference. I’d think the data will be soft adding more pressure to the Fed.
Dollar up some. PM shares weaker. Another week in the books.
The battle for the $33’s rages on tonight
They had us back below them an hour ago, but someone (in London?) has decided to put up a fight and losses have been cut in half, moving them back above.
The overnights have not been as friendly to us lately as they were for quite awhile, but the US markets have been more friendly and not moving to waterfall us after a weak session overseas.
That’s unusual.
Long way to go.
Interesting
…How the Kremlin said that Berlin could become a target if the Taurus missiles are used against Russia. Suddenly Germany gets cold feet about supplying the missiles.
And Russia holds all the Hazelnuts.
