· Gold and silver are mildly bearish
US flash manufacturing PMI is at a twenty two month high. Chinese manufacturing conditions have shown growth over the previous months. These are signs that manufacturing in these key nations are improving. But there can be cyclical involved in the form of higher Christmas and New year related spending in the USA which could slowdown over the coming months and higher increase in inventories by Chinese factories to meet upcoming Chinese New year demand next month. The economic progress from April in every nation will be crucial. We have an early Easter this year in March so Easter related spending will be in March. The quarter April to June could see a decrease in consumer spending in the USA, China and Europe and could force the central banks to rethink on the proposed quantitative easing exit strategy. Economic will be the key for gold and silver for the first six months. In the second half of every year, we have seen that central bank gold demand generally increases which results in gains for gold and silver.
