Gold prices (December 24th) in the European session were stable at $4,491 ahead of Christmas Day tomorrow, with the market closing early tonight. Gold prices surged past $4,500 per ounce for the first time, while silver, platinum, and palladium also hit record highs. This increase was driven by surging demand for safe haven assets amid geopolitical and global trade risks, as well as expectations of further US interest rate cuts in 2026. Investors flocked to precious metals as a hedge.According to analysts, this trend is reinforced by the de-globalization narrative, where gold and precious...
Gold remained weak on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, moving below $4,000 per ounce, around $3,970-$4,020, after dropping to a nearly three-week low. Selling pressure came as the market grew more optimistic about the potential for a US-China trade deal to be discussed directly by Trump and Xi, leading to a decline in safe-haven assets like gold, and investors shifting to riskier assets. Technically, gold's failure to hold above $4,000 also triggered profit-taking. However, this doesn't mean the gold trend is over. The market is almost certain the Fed will cut interest rates by another 25 basis...
Silver remained weak on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, after falling to the $46-$48 per ounce range. Selling pressure arose because the global market was risk-on: sentiment regarding the US-China trade deal has caused investors to seek less safe-haven assets like silver and instead invest more in stocks and riskier assets. Profit-taking after the previous price surge also hindered silver's rapid rise. However, fundamentally, silver is not yet completely bearish. Expectations of a Fed rate cut remain supportive, as lower interest rates are generally good for precious metals. Furthermore, silver...
Silver fell to around $48 per ounce, continuing its correction after falling more than 6% last week. Safe-haven sentiment weakened as the market grew more confident that US-China trade relations would ease ahead of the Trump-Xi meeting. The US said 100% tariffs were almost certainly canceled, and China was prepared to withhold rare earth exports for a year. As global tensions eased, hedging interest also declined. At the same time, the Fed is expected to cut interest rates this week after US inflation data softened. Lower interest rates are usually good for precious metals like silver...
Gold is under pressure again as global markets enter risk-on mode. Signals of peace on the US-China trade front have reduced investors' need for safe haven assets, leading to a correction in gold prices after a major rally. However, this is more of a relief trade deal than a complete bearish one, as gold's annual price remains high, and government debt, currency weakness, and central bank purchases remain key drivers. Going forward, the key focus will be on the Fed's interest rate. If the Fed cuts interest rates, this would be bullish for gold, as holding gold becomes cheaper than holding...
Silver fell on Friday, October 24, 2025. Spot prices moved in the range of $48-49 per troy ounce, slightly weakening from the previous day after significant volatility earlier this week—even falling sharply after hitting a new record above $54.

The price of silver at the time of this analysis was released was $48,561. Disclaimer: This article is...
