April 26th 2011 Market Recap with Gold, Silver

Quick heads up, I will not be in the office this Thursday (4/28) so there will be no market recap on this day. Wednesday will be the last one for this week.

A big day for the markets as both the NASDAQ and S&P 500 broke through their key resistance on strong volume. As long as we do not see a quick reversal back into the base later this week, we should expect higher prices from here.

I have five charts tonight including both Gold and Silver for your viewing pleasure. Hope this market is treating you well. Stay frosty out there!
