Dollar has weakened, US economy seems solid. Perhaps we are seeing some return to inflation that gold and silver like.
US exports could use a weaker dollar. The strong USD (and/or weak foreign currencies) has been beating up overseas sales and profits for US companies.
That's still pretty eh. It's still down from 6 months ago if it starts getting above that that would start to be something. Most of the 60 day gain has been during half of Texas getting wiped out and the Hurricane. Metals aren't doing those people any good, but people generally tend to flock to them during big disasters.
If I'm right, the bear metals market may be over. If Baseball is right, we're just going to slide right back into the bear.
Yeah, but gas went up here 20 cents in one day. Price gouging for Labor Day. It's old gas, not a result of hurricane Harvey.
Gas is priced based off of future supply. There generally is a slight price bump on holiday weekends, but Harvey is absolutely the driving force in the rising gas prices.
