Historic Gold and Silver Price Collapse Triggers Mining Stock Selloff
- Historic Price Drop: On Friday, gold prices fell by 9.5% to $4,861 per ounce, while silver plummeted 27% to $84 per ounce, marking the largest single-day declines since 1980, leading to a sharp decrease in demand for precious metals and negatively impacting mining stocks.
- Mining Stocks Hit Hard: The collapse in gold and silver prices resulted in many mining stocks experiencing double-digit declines, reflecting a rapid loss of investor confidence in precious metals, prompting widespread sell-offs and putting pressure on the overall mining sector.
- Concerns Over Fed Independence Eased: The nomination of hawkish Kevin Warsh as the next Federal Reserve chair by President Trump has alleviated fears regarding the independence of the Fed, which may influence future monetary policy directions and investor sentiment.
