Silver prices posted a historic intraday reversal.

According to The Kobeissi Letter on the 26th (local time), silver prices surged more than 14% before turning lower within a day, and in just 90 minutes roughly $900 billion in the silver market’s capitalization was wiped out.

Early in the session, after hitting a fresh all-time high, silver gave up all of its gains as intense selling pressure emerged. The move is seen as volatility spiking to an extreme as pent-up profit-taking and overheated positioning were liquidated all at once.
