COMEX gold futures declined 1.46% to $4,121.90 an ounce, and COMEX copper fell 1.61% to $6.6175 a pound.
Gold Falls 1.4%, Silver Plunges Over 6% After US CPI Data
The scale of silver's drop relative to gold is the notable part: a move of that magnitude in a single session points to leveraged positioning being flushed rather than a simple rate-driven repricing, and copper falling alongside both suggests the reaction is broader than a pure precious-metals story. For RWA and tokenized-commodity markets, this is a reminder that on-chain metal exposure inherits the same volatility as the underlying, with less liquidity to absorb it. Whether silver stabilizes or continues to underperform gold is the open question worth watching.
