The entire precious metals complex is seeing red this morning as of 9 AM ET. Gold is down to $4,873.50 (-2.99%), silver has retreated to $76.60 (-5.69%), platinum is at $2,037.90 (-5.11%), and palladium sits at $1,550.00 (-5.60%). This synchronized decline across all four major metals is typical during "risk-off" days where a surging Dollar Index (DXY) forces a broad liquidation in dollar-denominated commodities.
