Reddit getting to grips with precious metals

Precious metals could be seeing some spillover from the Reddit community in the latest unexpected twist. Silver prices soared on Thursday and it’s up around 3% again today. Gold isn’t seeing quite the same moves but may be benefiting a little by association, with the yellow metal seeing gains of more than 1%, despite higher yields and a firmer dollar. It will certainly be an interesting one to watch and the situation unfold, with a move above USD1,875 potentially triggering a run at USD1,900. Volatility is only likely to pick up from here.

Musk sends bitcoin to the moon

It wouldn’t truly be a wild week without bitcoin getting in on the action. Elon Musk has suddenly become the most influential person on Twitter, taking the mantle from Donald Trump after his profile was deleted. All Musk has to do is mention something and traders go wild for it. Like, for example, put #bitcoin in his twitter profile, sending the cryptocurrency soaring, up 30% from its lows on Wednesday. Given everything we’ve seen this week, this is increasingly looking like normal behaviour. One thing is certain though, an apparent vote of confidence from the world’s richest man doesn’t half carry some weight and ends any chance of price breaking below USD30,000, something that was looking increasingly likely. Even Binance suspending withdrawals did nothing to shake it. Whether Musk is an investor or just having a little fun doesn’t even matter at this point. The markets are turning into his newest toy. Time to turn on Twitter alerts.
