Gold and Silver Report: EGO Stock and NovaGold Gain as Gold Slides

by Christopher Freeburn | April 22, 2014 5:15 pm

Gold fell modestly in Tuesday trading, declining for a third consecutive session. Investors sent the metal lower, ignoring a warning from Vice President Joe Biden that the U.S. would not recognize Russia’s annexation of Crimea. Biden, currently in Kiev to meet with Ukraine’s interim prime minister, also pledged additional American financial support for the embattled country.
