I am finding multiple references to an anticipated rally for Monday in PM. This is due to terrible job numbers out on Thursday should be associated with a Dow tumble. http://www.rttnews.com/1855609/analyst-precious-metals-to-rally-after-easter-break.aspx Ty Andros Says Wait Till Monday - http://financialsurvivalnetwork.com/2012/04/ty-andros-says-wait-till-monday-06-apr-2012/ Perhaps that is the reason they hit PM so hard this past week ?

Just announce QE3 already, I'm sick of my metal maintaining it's value, I want it to increase damn it! Is that really too much to ask?
Can ya just hold off a couple of weeks first? Want to make a big purchase but don't get paid until the 15th lol
If the dollar nose dives because of the jobs number then markets and the PM's will rise. Been the same for months. However, not sure if Monday will see quite so big a sell off; as they've had all weekend to try and spin it more positive. They are also trying to balance a market decline with rising oil prices (irate American consumers) which means the dollar has to rise. Lot of balancing to do in election silly season!
Just relax. I highly doubt there will be anything amazing happening this year with pm's. Accumulation year stack away for 2013-15. There might just be another drop to come but i have positioned myself to take some advantage of the current spot price. Keep some powder dry this year just in case.

Every time he opens his trap, price of gold and silver is going down. ATM price of gold is 1641 silver 31.53 Found link CNBC http://www.cnbc.com/id/24596546
My impression from today's news is that QE3 is not expected in the near future since "job numbers are good in context." Be prepared for a PM price drop after the speech.
