In commodity market discussions, silver gold price forecast shows an inverse correlation with U.S. Treasury yields; recent declines in yields could support a near-term relief rally for both metals. A bear market occurs when stock prices fall 20% or more. This article explores what a bear market means for investors, whether we're in a bear market right now, and what actions you can take to protect your wealth. XAG/USD Silver had yet another great week, showing yet another outsize rise in value of almost 4%, and powering up to a new 14-year high which is now very close to the all-time high made in 2011. It also outperformed Gold and all other precious metals. These are bullish signs, as is the breakout from the linear regression analysis shown within the price chart below – the price is well above the upper bound. With Silver’s outperformance against Gold, it is probably worth being bold on the long side here. Having said, if you are just entering a new long trade here, as the move is quite extended, a smaller position size might be wise. Volatility is high, so a strong downwards movement is possible when the retracement finally comes. I remain very bullish on Silver but worry that it may have peaked on such a large move. Trading the trend with a trailing stop is a good answer to this dilemma if you do it systematically. There could well be profit taking at $50, especially if Gold reaches $4,000 systematically. XAG/USD Weekly Price Chart XAU/USD Gold rose last week to rise to print a new all-time high, but closed a bit below that high and the round number at $4,000. It is worth noting that Gold underperformed Silver last week, but not by a lot The long-term bullish trend and break to new record highs are bullish factors, as is the strong US stock market, as the US stock market has tended to be positively correlated with Gold, to the surprise of many who see it as a hedge against inflation. For anyone who is only entering a long trade now, it might be wise to use a smaller position size to account for any sudden high-volatility snapback towards lower prices. Just like the stock market, you have to wonder how much further this bull run will last – but it is backed by a very strong long-term bullish trend, and you trade against that at your peril unless you start to see clear signs of a reversal in the price action – which is not showing here yet. There could well be profit taking at $4,000, especially if Silver reaches $50 simultaneously. I am bullish on Gold, but it might be wise to take a smaller long position here than with Silver, which looks more bullish.
