UPDATE: Silver Crashes Down $74 (Profit-Taking, Forced Selling, and Fed–Dollar Pressure!)

Описание: As of February 18, silver is trading at $74.67 per ounce, and today’s drop has investors asking serious questions.
Was this the start of a larger reversal?Or just a textbook correction inside a bigger uptrend?
In this video, we break down every single force behind today’s sell-off:
• Profit-taking after a sharp rally• U.S. dollar strength• Federal Reserve rate expectations shifting• Thin liquidity conditions• Algorithmic technical selling• Broader risk-off sentiment
More importantly, we separate short-term noise from long-term structure.
Because while the paper price fell today, physical inventories continue tightening, industrial demand remains strong, and institutional capital continues flowing into silver-related assets.
This is not panic content.This is context.
