Wow, investing really is a story of regrets. I sold off gold for several days in a row when it was high, and I even promised to sell more if it continued to rise, but I forgot today, and now the regret is here... Spot gold and silver prices plummeted, both falling after rising 3% and 4% respectively. Spot silver's intraday decline widened to 8%, reaching $107 per ounce.
