Has the tide begun to turn for the precious metals, notably silver and gold?

Ahead of New York’s opening, gold was trading in London at $1,172.50 and in the euro at €1,094.57.

The Titanic Sinks At Dawn

The titanic creation of paper assets such as bonds, currencies, and stocks has created substantial risk.
