As you can see from the other comments to your post, there seems to be funny stuff going on in the markets. From what I could research online, if there are margin calls a company may have to sell collateral to keep a certain amount in their account or get liquidated by the entity with the margin call. This MIGHT be why gold/stocks/crypto are all falling at the same time.
I was curious because typically you see gold go up in bad times, but if margin calls are close, you may see selling in all categories at the same time. I have not heard of any margin calls being made, but some Hedge Funds (either the whole company or one of their funds) have closed or closed positions. This is just my guess as this really makes no sense to me.
Why is gold and silver fallling too?
