Gold and silver held their prices well today with silver actually gaining some ground. Not bad for the day after a Comex option expiration.
This Friday the December contract becomes active on first notice, so we might see some changes in open interest.
Not much to report in the delivery category, but the Comex warehouse show the continued drip, drip of bullion out of their domains.
There is a nor'easter moving up the eastern seaboard now that will be arriving in the New York metropolitan area tomorrow morning. It will be bring snow to the western and northern suburbs, which may dampen an already quiet trading day before the four day holiday weekend.
Goldman, HSBC, and BASF have been accused of rigging the price of platinum and palladium. Gold and silver must be the only two global markets that haven't been rigged, if one is to believe that sort of thing.

Have a pleasant evening.
