Lately there seems to be a lot more sudden spikes or dips. Just wondering if this is normal or if we are seeing a lot more volatility due to uncertainty. Gold has sometimes gone up or down by $50 or more at a time! These dips and spikes I assume they are due to paper trades?
There's always been spikes and dips, the May spike/crashes for Silver were more wild than anything over the last few weeks. A change of $50 in Gold as a percentage is around $1 change in Silver, so while the numbers may sound amazing, the change isn't all that much. The stock market, commodities market among many others are way more volatile than PMs. This is nothing . Stack on.
