We learn about the terrible performance of silver and gold over the past week.
For the year, silver is now marginally down.
Gold on its part was $14 down this week. It traded at $1915. Remember, it fell too last week.
Silver traded at $23.47 recently this week, which shows it down 62 cents, extending the recent falls.
Both the yen and euro have also fallen significantly over time these days.
There are perspectives that the dollar too is in trouble but we wait to see more of that in coming weeks.
