Where Silver Prices Are Trading Today – and What's Next

This drifting comes after a dramatic drop of 35% in the first half 2013. As with gold, much of the drop is due to fears that the U.S. Federal Reserve will begin "tapering" purchases of bonds from its current $85 billion-a-month level. If this comes to pass, the financial markets currently believe this will reduce excess liquidity and therefore any possible inflationary fires.
