Gold brick – NYT Mini Crossword answer

Still struggling? The answer to three down in the April 11 NYT Mini Crossword is “INGOT.”

An ignot is a pure form of material cast into a shape for further processing. In the case of gold ignots, they tend to be oblong-shaped, hence gold bars.

Nowadays, gold is mostly traded on the stock market, rather than in physical, ignot form. As of today, an ounce of gold is worth over $3,200 per ounce. This is actually the highest its ever been, thanks to the U.S-China trade war. Commodities like gold usually perform well when there’s uncertainty in the market—and thanks to an orange man named Trump and a million tariffs, there’s definitely a lot of uncertainty.
