The ratio peaked at 126.56 on March 18th and has been falling ever since. In the past three weeks, due to the sharp rise in silver, the price has fallen from 115.35 to 100.00.

Silver rebounded below $15 on May 7 and rose to a high of $17.63 on May 20. During this period, the price of gold also rebounded from $1680 to $1765. In percentage terms, however, silver rose 17.5 per cent, much more than gold's 5 per cent rise and pushed down the gold-to-silver ratio.

Optimism about the easing of the blockade by major countries could further boost silver (a semi-precious / semi-industrial metal). The gold-silver ratio fell below the widely tracked 100-day moving average, echoing the same trend.
