Gold slips 0.16% to $4,292.85/oz in New York trade; silver gains 0.70%
The divergence between silver's gain and gold's slight decline suggests the two metals are being driven by different marginal buyers rather than a single precious-metals bid. Miners underperforming bullion — the gold miners index down while the metal barely moved — points to equity holders pricing in margin or cost pressure that spot markets are not. Whether that miner-versus-metal gap persists is the open question.
