Gold is sold off on the world market

SJC and non-SJC gold prices both fell sharply domestically after the world gold price was sold off in last night's trading session in the US market.

Last night, in the US market, gold and silver prices fell sharply after gold overnight jumped to a new record high of $2,152.30, according to the February Comex futures contract. Silver hit a seven-month high overnight.
