Your humble scribe notes that the chartists out there are having a poke at this corner of cyberspace this morning, mocking some sort of "derision" that was supposedly heaped upon their tushes back on July 20th when I dared to oppose their squiggly line reading with a few charts based on solid numbers and reasoning that concerned U supply and demand going forward.
So let's see how Uranium has done since that big shill moment back in July when the U pumpers were trying to get everybody into the metal and claiming it was about to go to da moon, Alice. Here's a table that shows the changes in gold, silver, copper and uranium in the period from that post to today.
| Change in metals prices, July 20th to date (U$) | |||
| 20th July | Today | % change | |
| uranium | 46.50 | 49.25 | 5.91% |
| gold | 1183 | 1325 | 12.00% |
| copper | 3.28 | 3.80 | 15.85% |
| silver | 17.55 | 23.16 | 31.97% |
Here's a chart that shows the percentage changes in the spot prices of the metals in question.
So forgive me, but I'm going to continue to ignore the U lah lah brigade and stick with the metals that the world really cares about. DYODD.
