Gold and silver prices dropped sharply on Friday, with silver falling over 10% and gold down more than 3%, reversing recent gains that had pushed silver to a two-month high. Analysts attribute the decline to rising inflation fears, expectations of higher interest rates by the Federal Reserve, and a stronger US dollar, all of which typically pressure precious metals prices.

Meanwhile, oil prices rose over 2%, continuing their inverse relationship with metals during recent conflicts.
