The gold and silver markets have been a bit unstable recently. Gold has fallen from its high, dropping nearly $16, and is now at $4453 per ounce. Silver's situation is even worse, breaking through the $79 level with a single-day decline of approximately 2.81%. Over in New York futures, silver hasn't fared much better, dropping 2.64%. In short, there's significant short-term adjustment pressure. During such times, it's important to closely watch the subsequent trends, especially how macroeconomic factors move, as precious metals are still quite sensitive.
