On May 1st, according to the Wall Street Journal, MetaPlatforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg provided new details about the companys aggressive AI plans and addressed the markets negative reaction to its first-quarter results at a company-wide meeting on Thursday. Zuckerberg attributed the 8% drop in Metas stock price to investor concerns about upward revisions to its expected capital expenditures and the companys forecast of slower growth in the second quarter. Zuckerberg said that Metas advertising business experienced a "trajectory shift" after the US-Iran conflict in late February. He said, "If oil prices rise, then consumers will spend more money on oil and gasoline, and less on non-essential items, which are typically targeted for advertising." Zuckerberg attributed the companys planned layoffs next month to the need to invest more in data centers and other AI infrastructure. He said, "The company basically has two cost centers. One is computing and infrastructure, and the other is people. If we invest more in one area to serve our community, it means we have less capital to allocate to the other area. So it means we really need to scale back the company a bit."① Iran 1. Iranian Foreign Minister: US and Israeli aggression is the root cause of regional instability. 2.

Silver Price Prediction - Silver Markets Remain Volatile

During Tuesday's trading session, silver markets were quite active, as we continue to trade over the $21 barrier. The $21 level has been a pretty significant region, but the overall picture remains bearish. It is difficult not to notice the large "H pattern" on this chart, thus it is probable that we will attempt to reach the $20 level given sufficient time.

 

The $22 level above continues to provide resistance and will likely be significant owing to the 50 Day EMA approaching it once again. Ultimately, I believe this is a market that will always have a large number of sellers at rallies, mostly owing to the fact that US interest rates will continue to rise, so working against the value of silver. Additionally, pay particular attention to the US Dollar Index, as it has a negative association with this market.

 

I would not consider this market a buying opportunity until the silver market breaks over $22.50, because it has been so bearish for so long. I do feel that we will ultimately test the $20 level in the future, and a breach below that level would create significant selling pressure. Long-term, silver's price might go as low as $12 if it falls below the $20 threshold. Keep in mind that silver is also an industrial metal, which is not helping it as a worldwide recession is imminent.
