important signal of overall economic health because consumer spending is highly correlated with
labor-market conditions;

Gold recovered today after yesterday's rout as equities dipped amid concerns over continued US government shutdown. The
metal opened at 1297.50/1298.50, dipped slightly to a low of 1297.00/1298.00 early on, before advancing to a high of
1323.50/1324.50 by mid-morning. Price traded around this level for the remainder of the session, closing at 1320.00/1321.00.
Gold dropped after U.S. Congress failed to reach an agreement on a budget for the next fiscal year, leading to the first
government shutdown in 17 years.

Monday's midnight deadline.

Ÿ After trading sideways overnight, silver opened today at the session low of 21.25/21.30. Price traded higher to peak
at 22.00/22.05 on weak private payroll growth and the continued standoff in the US government. The metal then
retreated from its high, closing the day at 21.88/21.93.
Ÿ Silver also traded higher, closing at 21.88 and erasing yesterday's losses. Interim support is at yesterday's low at

previously a big support level from April to June.
ŸYesterday we warned of a potential bearish move in the gold-silver ratio, and this was confirmed today with a close
lower at 60.45. The lower close is a sell signal, targeting 58.70, the last major low (from September 19). Resistance is
at yesterday's high at 62.37.
ŸSilver dropped as investors viewed metal as less profitable due to improving data and sentiments that a U.S.
government shutdown will be short lived.
ŸPrices fell due to technical factors as investors saw little to support the precious metal going forward
Ÿ.Market talk continued to persist that Fed will keep its monthly bond-buying program in place to offset any damage the
shutdown may inflict on recovery.
