Between gold, silver and bitcoin, here’s the most popu-lar safety play with traders

Published Sat, Jul 27 2019 9:30 AM EDT

“Since last November — so, for about eight months or so — when the Fed started to move towards dovish, people flocked to gold and to bitcoin and they ran them both up,” Jim Iuorio, a veteran futures and options trader, said They forgot silver, but ... silver sometimes lags gold and then catches up all at once. We’ve seen that in the last couple weeks.” Now, trust in the trio is being tested. Gold is up almost 11% this year, with most occurring in the last three months; silver is up over 9% in the last three months and on track for third week of gains; and the Wild West that is bitcoin is up over 150% this year and has seen huge swings in both directions in the last several weeks.

“Bitcoin, all of a sudden, has shown some drastic volatility over the last two weeks, including a $3,000 drop in about a minute two weeks ago,” said Iuorio, who is managing director of TJM Institutional Services.

“So, to me, bitcoin’s out,” he said. “Silver’s rallied hard recently. That leaves gold. Yes, the dollar’s rallying. Gold and the dollar have rallied together at the same time before. I like gold the best.” On Tuesday, Iuorio — who said that he was long gold and planned on growing his long position — put on a gold trade by buying $1,428 contracts with an upside target of $1,448 and a downside stop at $1,417. U.S. gold futures were trading around $1,419 on Friday.Scott Nations, president of NationsShares, was less inclined to go for gold because of what he called its “horrible technical setup.” “It had a key reversal,” he said in the same “Futures Now” segment. “I’m not the biggest technician in the world, but I pay attention to key reversals. What does that mean? It means that the contract made a new high and fin-ished lower on the day, and that’s horrible. And, since then, gold has been terrible.” Instead, the longtime options trad-er settled for the second-most-popular precious metal: silver. “I would much rather own silver. ... I would be a buyer of the September contracts [at] $16.45,” Nations said. “Silver’s actually remained strong. My target to the upside would be $17.50 and my stop to the downside would be $15.75. A couple of reasons: [The] dollar’s been really strong, and that’s going to impact silver less than gold.” Silver will be slightly more protected that gold amid dollar strength because of its variety of “industrial uses” and fewer ties to interest rates, Nations explained.And, if the precious metal can indeed hold up and head higher, Iuorio wasn’t opposed to trading it, either.“I think if silver shows a little more strength, I like silver, too. I mean, I’ll say Scott’s wrong and gold’s way better, but I don’t hate his trade,” he said.

Special edition Victory Stampede coin

designed by Calgary artist

2019 coin features image of cowboy who won the roping event back in 1919

Maggie Macintosh · CBC News · Posted: Jul 04, 2019 9:19 PM MT The silver collector coin, which has some gold plated elements, costs $119.95. (Royal Canadian Mint) . A Calgary artist's sketch of a star cowboy competing at the Stampede a century ago is etched into the Royal Canadian Mint's latest collector coin. The silver coin was unveiled at Stampede Park on Thursday, on the eve of the Victory Stampede Parade.

The design has been a year in the making for local equine-artist Michelle Grant. This Victory stampede was the second

-ever Calgary Stampede. (Royal Canadian Mint) "It's a cowboy who won the roping event back in 1919 and he's gallop-

ing really hard on his horse to the right with his [lasso]," Grant said. The Victory Stampede of 1919 marked the first

Stampede after the First World War. When Canadian soldiers returned home, Calgary Stampede founder Guy Wead-

ick saw an opportunity to celebrate the win and showcase a rodeo. The American-Canadian banded together with

other cowboys and farmers to plan a special event that would boost morale in Alberta.
