Gold and Silver Prices After Historic Plunge; Are You Ready to Shine?
The precious metals market experienced extreme price changes throughout Monday. Gold and silver saw their largest single-day price drop in more than ten years, though this should not cause immediate worry. Spot gold recovered almost 1% after declining 4%, while silver reached $84.14 after rebounding 8% from a temporary 12% drop. Over the past year, both have soared to record highs. Are you holding gold or silver; or thinking of buying now?
Investors should watch the market closely, as geopolitical tensions, currency concerns, and Federal Reserve actions are driving current fluctuations.
