On last week’s Silver Doctors SD Metals & Markets I made the case (click here) that silver bottomed on May 10th.  This week, precious metals fund manager Dave Kranzler joined the show to update us on his take on market action and the probability that the so-called “summer doldrums” will go AWOL.  Mr. Kranzler notes:

• “It smells like desperation”: Is the day of reckoning almost here?
• Kranzler believes if you don’t have gold, you have a problem…
• The fund manager reveals his outlook: Don’t expect to find gold and silver bargains in July

Fund manager Dave Kranzler joins “Doc” and Eric Dubin to discuss the agressive management of precious metals markets.  This month, Comex silver open interest rocketed past 230,000 contracts as the cartel created new short issuance to match-up against persistent interest among speculators to get long.  The market finally cracked and the cartel has been taking a victory lap and covering their shorts and closing out positions, with Comex OI dipping below 200,000 contracts for the first time in many days.  Kranzler opines on these dynamics and places them into a bigger picture context of very strong worldwide demand.  If you’re in need of a review, click here to catch last week’s show with Craig Hemke for a description on how the shorting operation works.  Tune into this week’s show, below:

Today, we are seeing continued attacks on mining shares and the entire precious metals sector was taken down in the early New York afternoon trade.  This is a continuation of the near-term trends visible last week that I discussed with Dave Kranzler on Friday’s Silver Doctors SD Metals & Markets.   Precious metals will reverse very soon because the fundamentals are overwhelmingly positive for gold and silver.  What we are witnessing is nothing more than the desperation of the guardians of the fiat paradigm in the face of far stronger physical market trends than widely perceived to exist given the tonnage flow moving into China, under the radar of the World Gold Council and other methodology-blinded sources that form the basis of mainstream media and Wall Street consensus opinion.  – Eric Dubin, Managing Editor, The News Doctors
