Gold and silver prices rallied today after a shocking move by the Swiss National Bank to abandon its 3-year cap on the Swiss Franc. European shares and bond yields were sent tumbling after this announcement, along with the US dollar, while both gold and silver prices went on a tear. Spot gold rose as high as $1,263 which brings it just above its key $1,260 resistance level.

Will we be seeing more QE to come? Will this upward trend in both gold and silver continue into future weeks?
