(Kitco News) - Gold prices are modestly down and silver prices modestly up in early U.S. trading Tuesday, just ahead of a key U.S. inflation report. Risk aversion remains elevated in the marketplace amid an active geopolitical environment. February gold was last down $25.80 at $4,589.10. March silver prices were up $0.474 at $85.58.

If interest rates are reduced, the dollar will be even weaker and put more upward pressure on precious metal prices!

Silver up 25% this year alone.

before FDR stole Americans Gold, the ratio was 20 to 1, then devalued to 35 to 1 after the massive theft. Silver still has a long way to go.

The last I looked the gold/silver ratio was closing to 65:1.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Yes, silver and gold are up and look to be trending up not down.

Maybe so but I cashed out my silver futures contracts this morning at a nice profit. Might go higher but sliver is already at an all-time high and I'm too old to gamble on all-time highs going higher.
