Precious Metal Prices Under Pressure as Risk Appetite Increases

Weaker prices were recorded for gold and silver at the start of this week, though both metals had recovered somewhat from their session lows. The decline was driven in part by a drop in crude oil prices and a strong rebound in U.S. equity markets.
