Honestly, it was a good time to cash in on the profit. Even as a fairly lazy investor who looks at long term gains, hindsight (and some time to look at the numbers) tells me that I would have sold off my holdings, then buy back in when it dropped lower.

The numbers within these couple of months have been great for precious metals. It started off with the hype in gold, which shone a light on silver, then palladium and platinium caught fire (figuratively). Precious metal as a safe haven calms the investors' nerves and everyone keeps flocking back when things get rough.

I'll look to pick up more if the slide continues a little more.

Silver Freefall! A Healthy Reset or End of Squeeze?

Spot Silver loses 5% before the market open. Citigroup expects silver to likely avoid U.S. tariffs, which could encourage metal outflows from U.S. warehouses and relieve global tightness. After a months-long security review, the Trump administration paused broad tariffs on key minerals, including silver and platinum, opting for bilateral talks. Wall Street remains constructive mid-term, citing supply deficits, industrial demand, and gold spillover. With tariff risk easing, is silver’s pullback a healthy reset or the end of the squeeze?
