Global Market Factors

The price changes were partly due to worries around the world. U.S. President Trump talking about buying Greenland made people nervous. This led to more people buying gold and silver as a safe place to put their money, which pushed up the prices of these metals.

Gold futures in the U.S. also went up, and the biggest gold-holding investment fund, SPDR Gold Trust, saw an increase in its holdings. Platinum and palladium also moved, but generally in the opposite direction of gold and silver.
