Silver drops amid profit-pocketing after touching 3-month high
Silver future prices declined about 2% in an early trade after investors booked profits as the metal touched the highest level in three months yesterday, as well as the uncertainty over stimulus tapering in the U.S. pushed silver lower. Silver plummeted 1.25% to $22.875 per ounce, after reaching $23.150 per ounce in the previous day.
