Gold Daily and Silver Weekly Charts

Just another day in the snoratorium as the precious metals and miners took a little hit when the Bernank turned his crank, jawbone-wise, in a very light holiday week trade.

The premiums on the bullion funds are impressively low as pointed out in intraday commentary.

They *could* hit the metals in the thin trade, and we can buy the dip for a later date. Life goes on.

The adults will be leaving for the Thanksgiving holiday sometime after noon tomorrow, unless they do not bother coming in at all.

And he is willing to print some more, but would rather not tip his hand.

Otherwise it was an uneventful, boring market.
