Data from Tiger Trade, as of April 17th 2025

A Comprehensive Analysis

The surge in the precious metals market is primarily driven by several key factors:

• Firstly, the ongoing tension in global trade relations and policy uncertainties have become the new normal. The possibility of a trade war cannot be ruled out, prompting investors to flock to safe-haven assets such as $Gold - main 2506(GCmain)$.

• Secondly, the appreciation of the US dollar has put pressure on commodities like gold and $Copper - main 2505(HGmain)$ , but it may also trigger a sell-off in the stock market.

• Additionally, the rise in copper prices is fueled by expectations of increased demand and supply shortages, a trend that also applies to the precious metals sector.
