What it means
- If you buy silver for the bench: the metal is $2.19 an ounce cheaper than at the 9 September mark. Re-quote.
- If you scrap palladium: bid and ask sit $40.00 apart, 3.10% of the bid.
- What this is not: a Friday sell-off. Kitco's own session runs higher on all four metals.

The fall sits on 10 September
No mark Thursday. No mark was filed for 10 September, so these changes span two sessions rather than one. The 9 September marks are the last in the record.
Friday runs higher. Kitco's own session change prints all four metals higher on Friday. That field runs from Kitco's prior close, a different reference point from the marks above.
| Metal | 11 Sep | 9 Sep | Against 9 Sep | Kitco session |

Column four. measures against the 9 September marks in Carat Capital's own record and spans two sessions, because no mark was filed for 10 September.
Column five. is Kitco's own change field, which runs from Kitco's prior close. The two use different reference points and do not agree.
Changes and percentages. in column four are Carat Capital's arithmetic.
Palladium's spread stays wide
Forty dollars apart. Palladium is bid $1,290.00 against $1,330.00 asked, a spread of 3.10% of the bid. That is the widest of the four metals.
Range covered the fall. Silver covered $1.549 between $62.912 and $64.461 on the session, about seven-tenths of the fall it printed.
The ratio widened to 68.0
Sixty-eight to one. It takes 68.0 ounces of silver to buy an ounce of gold, against 66.4 at the 9 September marks.
Silver moved furthest. Silver fell further than gold in percentage terms, and palladium furthest of the four. No source read this run named a cause.
What to watch
- 12 SepThe next mark, and whether silver holds above $62.912, Friday's session low.
- 14 SepThe Monday refresh of the natural and lab-grown price lists, both still dated 30 July.
- 17 SepFH Swiss August export figures, the demand read on precious-metal watch cases.
The story so far

What would change this call
Silver back above $66.13 on the next mark. That would make this two quiet sessions rather than a move, and a bench that re-quoted would have given away margin for nothing.
Which change you are reading
A price board prints its own change field, measured from its prior close. A paper that reads the board once a day prints the change from its own last reading. The two use different reference points and will not agree on a metal that trades around the clock. Carat Capital carries the second and names the first wherever it differs.
Method
Marks are Kitco's bid, re-read at press time at 06:01 ET on 11 September 2026, superseding the 05:00 ET opening mark under the one-price rule; the opening mark read $4,345.80, $63.98, $1,795.00 and $1,288.00, all four were re-read because a metals story runs, all four differed, and all four were written back. Both the dated tape file and the live tape file carry these values and were compared against each other after the write. Prior marks are the 9 September levels in Carat Capital's own record, $4,389.30, $66.13, $1,841.00 and $1,335.00, and every change and percentage here is computed against them: −0.957%, −3.312%, −2.390% and −3.371%. No mark exists for 10 September, so each change spans two sessions; that is stated rather than presented as a one-day move. Kitco's own change field prints all four metals higher on the session; that field runs from Kitco's prior close and is carried in the table as a separate column, never mixed with column four. Second board: livepriceofgold.com quoted gold at $4,347.19, 0.0025% from Kitco's bid, inside the band the price desk treats as timing noise; silver's second reading stands on the 05:00 check, 0.21% apart, and the press-time move on silver is four cents, too small to require it again. Spreads, the session ranges and the gold-silver ratio are Carat Capital's arithmetic on those quotes. One note on the source's clock: Kitco's originalTime field reads 06:01:57Z while its own epoch resolves to 10:02 UTC, so the field is Eastern time carrying a Z; the quote used here is identified by the epoch, not by that string.
