SILVER weekly uptrend opportunity based On 1.00 Lot Calculation:
- SILVER AND GOLD RISE ON HIGHER INFLATION IN THE USA: US INFLATION (CPI) FOR APRIL AT THE HIGHEST SINCE 2008 (4.2% VS. 3.6% expected). Inflation has continued to rise, moved up by big stimulus packages provided by the US Federal Reserve and the US Congress. A rising inflation usually increases demand for gold and silver as those assets are traditionally considered a store of value, which tends to protect the purchasing power of people’s wealth amid higher inflation.
- FEDERAL RESERVE KEEPS SAYING THE HIGHER INFLATION IS TEMPORARY, SIGNALLING NO INTERVANTION ANY TIME SOON. The Fed is expected to keep interest rates unchanged close to 0.00% until the end of 2023. They are also expected to continue to purchase 120 billion dollars of bonds per month in 2021 (equivalent to 1.44 trillion dollars per year). Given current evidence of rising inflation in the US, the addition monetary stimulus could affect negatively the US dollar, while Silver and Gold prices could continue to rise. Fed is expected to meet next on June 16.
- US FISCAL STIMULUS TO CONTINUE TO RISE: US President Joseph Biden signed the $1.9 trillion stimulus into law on March 11. In December 2020, the U.S. Congress approved an $892 billion coronavirus aid package. Infrastructure bill that could be worth around 2 trillion dollars has been also discussed, while child care bill could be worth around 1.8 trillion dollars.
- INDUSTRIAL DEMAND FOR SILVER TO RISE IN 2021: Global silver demand is forecast to reach 1 billion oz in 2021, rising 11% year-on-year and marking an eight-year high, largely driven by industrial end-users. Industrial demand is projected to increase by 9% year-on-year to 510 million oz this year (source: The Silver Institute), while the rollout of 5G technology in consumer electronics might be expected to increase silver demand.
- ANALYST OPINION: Goldman Sachs has kept its Silver Forecasts to $33 per ounce.
