The actions of the global central banks reduced the attractiveness of precious metals

The ECB approved a range of financial measures to support the European economy. The US Federal Reserve will provide $ 1.5 trillion of short-term loans to US companies and banks. Similar measures were taken by the Central Bank of Australia, England and other countries. All of this can reduce the risks of a global economic downturn. Against this background, palladium quotes fell by 24% over the week, platinum and silver – by 12%. Gold is still behind and fell by 8%.
