How this page is made

Where the news comes from
- Reuters and Dow Jones headlines for gold, silver, platinum and palladium, through TradingView
- Kitco News and MetalsDaily
- The World Gold Council
- Google News, for wider coverage
- A daily AI web search for anything the feeds missed
How the briefs are written
Every hour we collect new headlines. An AI model from OpenAI tags each one by metal, topic and importance and writes a one-line summary from its headline and teaser. It doesn’t read paywalled articles. On weekdays at about 8 AM and after the 5 PM New York close, it writes a brief from the most important reports and our own spot price feed. Every point cites the reports it came from. On Fridays it writes a recap of the week.
Who publishes it
Bullion Trading LLC is a physical precious metals dealer in New York’s Diamond District, in business since 2008. Prices on this page come from our own live feed and LBMA history. We buy and sell bullion, so read the briefs as market context, not investment advice. Briefs are published automatically, without an editor’s review. If you spot an error, tell us.
