That has got to be bad data.
Check this article written today:

"Copper fell the most in a month, leading metals lower in London,"
"Nickel lost $500, or 1.7 percent, to $28,800."
It looks like it is going to be a bad day for base metals in any case.

I have learned not to trust Kitco quotes. But it is a down market today. Silver slightly lower too. |

Kitco is a refiner and the prices quoted by them I believe are 1 month behind market. Current stock market prices for gold are usually always higher because I think are based on gold futures, whereas the refiner is buying in the present not the future.
I do not put all my faith into kitco, there is many a site to find the info. needed. You must be logged in to see this link. You must be logged in to see this link.
I do believe the drop in price is/was accurate, but the price has since rebounded to a mere deficit of only 1.54% WOW!! What a rebound! |

I saw the same thing on Kitco and almost fell out of my chair. But I thought it had to be an error. I logged on to LME, and they show no such price decline for today's trading. It has to be an error on Kitco's part. A drop like that would be catastrophic.
