Gold is up $27.50. Silver is up $0.68. Today, someone has bought a half a billion dollars of gold futures.

Could be gold increasing due to oil prices increasing. Maybe its the ending of the London Silver Fix nearing. The unrest in the world that is causing the petro dollar to lose ground is my bet. Recently, Russia has been trading oil for Yaun and Rubble instead of the USD. Iran has been trading oil for gold and was sanctioned for this move off the petro dollar. Iran has continued this oil for gold trade with Russia and China. Russia has decided to attack the petro dollar in retaliation for the sanctions in regards to taking Crimea.
Since silver prices are still low and have been kept low through market manipulations it makes sense that when the manipulation ends this August with the end of the London Silver Fix that silver prices will do something. Silver prices are still at or below production costs.
