The silver price has finally stabilized this week after a rather brutal selloff over the past month. But is that it? Or is there more selling on the way? And what actually caused the recent selloff? To discuss those questions, as well as how the Fed's latest set of rate hikes is likely to impact the silver price going forward, technical expert Michael Oliver joined me on the show to explain what's happening.

J. Michael Oliver entered the financial services industry in 1975 on the Futures side, joining E.F. Hutton's International Commodity Division, headquartered in New York City's Battery Park. He studied under David Johnston, head of Hutton's Commodity Division and Chairman of the COMEX. In the 1980s Mike began to develop his own momentum-based method of technical analysis. He learned early on that orthodox price chart technical analysis left many unanswered questions and too often deceived those who trusted in price chart breakouts, support/resistance, and so forth. In 1987 Mike technically anticipated and caught the Crash. It was then that he decided to develop his structural momentum tools into a full analytic methodology. In 1992 the Financial VP and head of Wachovia Bank's Trust Department asked Mike to provide soft dollar research to Wachovia. Within a year, Mike shifted from brokerage to full-time technical research. His website is Olivermsa.com. He is also the author of The New Libertarianism: Anarcho-Capitalism.

Chris Marcus worked 2 years at bond rating agency Moody's, has an MBA from Wharton, and also worked 7 years as an equity options trader for Susquehanna International Group on the American and New York Stock Exchanges, before leaving in 2012 to create Arcadia Economics. In addition to publishing Arcadia's Monthly Market Snapshot, he also currently writes market commentary for gold and silver dealer Miles Franklin, Investing.com, and several others.
