🚨 DECADES-LARGEST MELTDOWN — METALS JUST GOT OBLITERATED 💥📉
This wasn’t a correction.
This wasn’t profit-taking.
This was a full-scale liquidation event.
In barely 36 hours, the precious metals space saw over $7 TRILLION erased — a destruction level markets rarely witness. The assets investors run to for safety suddenly became the epicenter of chaos.
Silver led the carnage.
🥈 Down nearly 30%, crashing below $85 and vaporizing roughly $1.96 trillion. Volatility is normal for silver — but this kind of vertical drop caught even hardened traders off guard.
Gold wasn’t immune.
🥇 The ultimate “safe haven” plunged 13.6%, slicing under $4,900 and wiping out an astonishing $5 trillion in value. When gold bleeds like this, it signals something deeper than ordinary market stress.
Industrial metals followed straight off a cliff:
⚙️ Platinum: -27.25%, lost over $215 billion
🔩 Palladium: -21.5%, shed nearly $85 billion
So what triggered the avalanche?
• Overcrowded leveraged positions
• Aggressive margin calls
• Institutional de-risking
• Rapid capital rotation
• Panic-driven sell programs
Once the selling started, liquidity disappeared — and prices didn’t fall… they air-pocketed.
Let’s be clear:
👉 This was not emotional selling.
👉 This was mechanical.
👉 This was forced.
Events like this don’t just shake portfolios — they reset market structure.
The real question now isn’t “Why did metals crash?”
It’s “Where is the money running next?”
Because when traditional safety breaks…
Every market becomes vulnerable.
