Due to market volatility and to ensure sufficient collateral coverage, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) raised the margin requirements for precious metal futures for the second time within a week, involving gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, effective after the market closes today (31st), meaning traders must provide more collateral for precious metal futures trading. The CME had already raised the relevant margin requirements on Monday (28th)
