Metal price update

It’s been just under three months since my last metal price update post.
A little check on the markets …

As at 27th February 2012:

1. Gold price in US$ for last 12 months

The big dip at the end of December (which wasn’t in my last update) was due to the crisis in the Euro zone. Similary, the latest kick up was on the back of the Greek bail-out deal, but the price has slipped a little in the last few days.

3. Silver price in US$ for last 12 months

Looks like the best time to buy silver was in late December … and the price is increasing just in time for the start of the university year. Bummer.
