Once the precious metals market turns weak, silver usually declines more sharply than gold—there are two key reasons behind this. First, silver's volatility is inherently higher than gold, making its price more sensitive to market sentiment; second, silver has industrial attributes, so when economic expectations weaken, industrial demand also contracts, and the combined negative factors cause a steeper decline than the risk-averse gold.
If you've been chasing silver recently, be sure to pay attention to this risk characteristic, especially during periods of rising market uncertainty.

Silver is just a high-risk toy; it’s great when the market is good, but it plunges immediately when it reverses. Industrial demand can disappear just like that.

Silver is indeed a sharp-tongued thing; when it falls, there's no room for negotiation. The double kill rhythm is unavoidable for everyone.

Silver is a double-edged sword; when it rises, it's great, but when it falls, it can make you vomit blood.

Another story of chasing highs and getting trapped, is it finally silver's turn this time?
---
Industrial properties combined with volatility kill two birds with one stone, no wonder it falls harder than gold.
---
Not now, what kind of mentality do people have to still chase high silver prices...
---
So, for safe-haven investments, buy gold; for profit chasing, go for silver. If you choose wrong, just wait to die.
---
That's why I only trade gold; silver is too刺激.
---
Double negative news stacking leads to a crash, it's not that complicated.
---
Whenever there's a slight change in the economy, silver gets hammered, serves it right.
---
If you want to make quick money, you have to endure violent fluctuations like silver. That's not true.

Silver is really just "emotional garbage"... A single drop can scare people to death, and those chasing the high this time are probably going to get caught.

Here's a comment:
Silver really is an emotional trash can; it crashes fiercely whenever it drops. I missed out on it once before, and now I feel scared.
