<p>Gold and silver continue to trade higher this week, receiving another boost today from new geopolitical concerns.</p>

<p>Poland fired shots at 19 Russian drones claimed to have violated Polish airspace…</p>
<p>…and it invoked Article 4 of NATO, seeking emergency consultation with other NATO members.</p>
<p>Poland's prime minister today warned the prospect of military conflict in Europe is "closer than at any time since the Second World War."</p>
<p>At the same time, Trump is floating 100% tariffs on India and China to pressure Russia over Ukraine.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, a U.S. District Court temporarily blocked Trump's firing of Fed Governor Lisa Cook, who stands accused of mortgage fraud. And the market is certain the Fed will reduce interest rates next week — possibly by even 50 basis points.</p>
<p>Indeed, the case for having personal exposure to physical gold and silver is as strong as ever, but Americans are mostly sitting out the precious metals market so far.</p>

<p>Retail demand has picked up over the past two weeks, but selling and profit-taking continue. It may take silver breaking above $50 before the American public jumps on board.</p>
<p>Premiums on coins, bars, and rounds are at 6-year lows — thanks to the high degree of retail selling and the glut of inventory in the U.S. dealer market. That spells opportunity for those who are actually accumulating gold and silver.</p>
