Gold and silver took the usual early morning hits and then floundered sideways for the rest of the day. I ascribe this action to the pre-Non-Farm payrolls jimmy-jive. The regulation of US markets is near an all time low in my judgement.

The young man is coming to spend some time here for the next couple days. He has been working weekends on his research projects.
