Gold slips 0.3% to $4,159/oz after touching $4,200 intraday
The intraday reversal from $4,200 to a lower close, paired with silver's steeper 1.85% drop and a 1.73% decline in the Philadelphia Gold and Silver Index, points to a broad precious-metals pullback rather than a gold-specific move. Copper's modest softening suggests the pressure wasn't confined to safe-haven assets. Whether silver's underperformance persists, or the index's decline deepens, is the open question for gauging whether this is routine volatility or a shift in positioning.
