Gold Stays Steady on Mixed Signals from Iran Conflict

Gold is ending this week trading at about $4,540 per ounce, a price range it has held for nearly a week. This comes as traders remain undecided regarding the Middle East war’s direction due to the mixed signals coming from both sides in the conflict. It has therefore become hard for traders to have concrete ideas about the likely action of major central banks on benchmark interest rates in the near term. Iran is putting together its response to the latest ceasefire proposal from Washington, a proposal that some sources say has watered down a number of contentious conditions that…

Why Silver Often Pulls Back Harder Than Gold During Downturns

If you have been following precious metal prices for a few months, you may be wondering why the price of silver often pulls back much harder than the price of gold during those retreats.

Consequently, when a market force impacts both markets, the silver market exhibits more volatility because its liquidity is smaller and therefore reacts in a more pronounced way. For example, on May 14 the price of silver retreated…

The report indicates that PGMs like palladium, rhodium, and platinum that are used as autocatalysts have been registering deficits due to reduced supply by the leading producers. The authors of the report point out that recycling in the autocatalyst…
