(Kitco News) – Gold and silver prices are solidly up in midday US trading Thursday, supported by a drop in the US dollar index on this day. The near-term chart postures are improving for both metals, and that’s also inviting more technically oriented traders to the long sides. August gold futures were last up $ 24.70 at $ 1,873.50. July Comex silver futures were last up $ 0.42 at $ 22.34 an ounce.<\/p>\n

Today’s ADP national employment report for May showed a less-than-expected rise of 128,000. That report is a precursor to Friday morning’s US employment situation report for May, which is expected to show the key non-farm jobs number at up 328,000, after a rise of 428,000 reported in April. The US unemployment rate is expected to be 3.5% versus 3.6% reported in April. The ADP report’s jobs number has not been a reliable forecaster for the more important non-farm jobs number that follows it.<\/p>\n

Global stock markets were mixed overnight. US stock indexes are firmer at midday. The US stock index bears are still enjoying the firm overall near-term technical advantage, as risk appetite in the marketplace is not robust.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In other news, the Euro zone reported its April producer price index was up a stunning 37.2%, year-on-year. Most of that was rising energy costs, but excluding energy the PPI was still up 15.6% annually.<\/p>\n
