Goldman Sachs have recommended ERM5/Z5 flatteners, with an entry at -13.0, targeting a move to -30.0, with a stop set at -5.0.
- They think “the trimmed risk of 50bp cut odds is reasonable given the modest upside surprises to recent inflation data in Europe and expect terminal rate pricing in H225 to lead any further rally from here.”

A bear cycle in Silver that started Oct 23 remains in play - for now - and recent gains appear corrective. However, the metal traded higher last week suggesting scope for a continuation near-term. An extension would expose key resistance at $32.338, the Dec 12 high. Clearance of this level would signal a reversal. On the downside, support to watch is $29.509, the Jan 13 low, and $29.748, the Dec 19 low and the bear trigger.
