What's the price of gold?
That seems like a ridiculously easy question to answer. I'm looking at a trading screen right now, and it displays a price of $1,733.80 per ounce.
That price may change a bit by the time you read this, but it would only take a fresh glance at the screen to get the new price. Case closed.

What's the price of silver? Again, the question seems easy to answer. My trading screen right now says $26.82 per ounce. That price also changes, but it only takes another look at the screen to fetch the new price. Nothing to it.
If only things were that simple. They're not.
In fact, establishing prices for gold and silver is far more difficult than it sounds. Further, the different prices on offer and the reasons for those differences can tell us a lot about what's going on right now in precious metals markets. ...
