Silver at least had the decency to give us much more warning than gold that
it was going to cave in. It marked out a rather fine Head-and-Shoulders top,
although the "Right Shoulder" was deceptive as it was very stunted - we had
been been looking for a larger one, but remained aware throughout that a break
of the neckline of the formation at $11.50 would lead to a rout. Despite being
now at strong support, we could see more downside in silver before the decline
is over. Another warning was the number of commentators touting the "wonderful
fundamentals" of silver.
