Solid price gains for gold, silver as bears run out of gas

Gold and silver prices are posting good gains in early U.S. trading. Bulls have strongly stepped in to buy the price dips as it appears the bears became exhausted. This suggests both metals have put in near-term price bottoms. June gold was last up $57.10 at $3,030.70. May silver prices were last up $0.721 at $30.325.
