In early March yellow metal’s price was the lowest since last year’s June. Today gold is trading higher again, as we can see on the daily chart (the chart includes today’s intraday data):

Gold is 0.6% higher this morning, as it is retracing yesterday’s decline. What about the other precious metals? Silver is 0.6% higher, platinum is 1.5% higher and palladium is 1.8% higher today. So precious metals are higher this morning.
