Sign InPrecious metals prices faced significant downward pressure as the US dollar gained strength and geopolitical tensions began to subside. Gold prices on the COMEX exchange slipped below the $5,000 per ounce threshold, marking a notable shift in market sentiment. Silver experienced a sharper decline, plunging more than 4% as investors grew cautious amid a firming greenback. The energy sector also saw losses, with Brent crude falling 1.5% to $67.64 and WTI slipping 0.3% to $62.59 per barrel. Analysts attribute this broad commodity sell-off to the reduced demand for safe-haven assets as global risks appear to be stabilizing. A stronger US dollar continues to make dollar-denominated commodities more expensive for international buyers, further weighing on the market.
