Here’s our weekly recap of the precious metals markets for June 6. As of this recording, here is where precious metals stand:
The price of gold is flat at $2,350. Gold has been in a trading range between about $2,320 and $2,360. This is after gold peaked at $2,450.
The price of silver had declined to just above $30 per ounce. Within the past week, it rose up all the way to $32.50 and dipped down under $30.
These pullbacks present a couple of different opportunities to purchase precious metals:
Ratio Trade in Silver
The gold-to-silver ratio has widened, and silver is hovering around $30. Now is a good time to buy more silver and hold it. When the gold-to-silver ratio narrows again, you can then sell your silver ounces and use the proceeds to buy gold — effectively increasing your number of ounces of gold down the road.
Dollar Cost Averaging into Gold
With the recent pullback in gold, now is a good time to dollar-cost average your gold purchases. You can use our Vaulted app to purchase smaller amounts of gold and get in while the price is lower.
