In less than 30 hours, the market violently reversed, with silver plunging from its peak. By Friday afternoon, January 30, prices bottom just below $75 per ounce, marking one of the most brutal daily corrections in silver’s trading history. Gold and the broader precious-metals complex were swept into the chaos as well, with massive upside and downside moves packed into a single week. Silver surged, then crashed in dramatic fashion—listen to understand what unfolded last week behind the price action.
