Just noticed precious metals getting hammered on MCX today after Trump's latest comments on Iran. Silver price crashed hard, down over 5% to around 229,888 per kg, while gold fell about 1.6% to 151,161 per 10 grams. The geopolitical tension is clearly spooking the market right now.



What's interesting is that crude is up more than 4% and the dollar index is climbing, which is putting real pressure on both metals. Spot silver price fell to $72.95 per ounce, so it's not just an India thing. The broader market seems to be pricing in inflation fears from potential military escalation.

Traders like Manoj Kumar Jain are suggesting silver could find support around $64 per ounce and gold around $4,470 per ounce on a weekly basis, but honestly volatility is the name of the game right now. If you're holding these metals, might be worth booking some profits on any bounces rather than averaging down. The uncertainty around US-Iran developments could keep things choppy for a while.
