The Overall Sentiment<\/strong><\/p>\n

The sentiment was negative in the first day of the fourth quarter with stock markets dropping sharply all over the globe. In the US the S&P fell 2.6% and the Dow lost 2.1%, the most since July, as disappointing economic data added worries about the recovery of the economy pushing the Dollar and the Yen higher in a typical risk aversion play ahead of Non-farm Payrolls. US Treasuries rose to their highest levels in four months. Slightly positive US data about personal income and consumption was overshadowed by negative figures in manufacturing and employment. The ISM Manufacturing Index posted its first decline in eight months showing that the sector expanded at a slower pace than the previous month and Jobless Claims unexpectedly rose from last week with investors expecting a decrease. Fed\u2019s Chairman Bernanke stated the he sees no immediate risk on the dollar losing its status as the world\u2019s main reserve currency. The economic figures coming from the Euro-zone were mixed with EU Unemployment Rate rising and PMI manufacturing gaining modestly. The Pound was little changed against the Dollar remaining under 1.60 and advanced against the Euro. Commodity-linked currencies lost ground versus the greenback as Oil traded below $70 in a volatile session and Gold corrected gains from a day before to trade back under $1000. In addition to the sell-off in US stock markets, positive data from Japan boosted the Yen against its major counterparties as the Japanese Jobless Rate surprisingly decreased in August and Household Spending rose to 2.6%.<\/p>\n

The Day Ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n

Market eyes are set on the US Non-Farm Payrolls due at 12:30 GMT. NFPs are known for causing high volatility on its release. Market expectations point to a 175K drop showing improved numbers from a 216K decrease the previous month. A better-than-expected figure could ignite risk-appetite sending the Dollar lower against higher-yielding currencies, where a negative surprise could spur risk-aversion strengthening the Dollar. In any case, past experiences show that the initial move can be rapid one way or the other but not necessarily in the market\u2019s real direction once the dust settles. US Unemployment Rate is also due at 12:30 GMT and expected to rise to 9.8%. Euro-zone PPI will indicate the direction of consumer inflation in the region and as German PPI rose, market forecasts point to climbing figures for the EU as well.<\/p>\n

Technical Analysis<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>SILVER DAILY<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

After rallying strongly Silver has slowly corrected from its peak just above 17.50 moving in a downwards channel for the past two weeks. It presents the opportunity to open a Short position as it is currently trading slightly below the channel\u2019s upper boundary. A break of the channel to the upside will signal that the metal has gathered strength to aim for new heights once again.<\/p>\n
