Gold price have flown to new all-time highs now. The current gold surge is due to increased demand as a safe-haven asset amid global economic uncertainty, high inflation, the Federal Reserve’s independence and geopolitical risks. The price of gold relies on market sentiment and demand. When people are fearful of the economy, demand for gold rises and its price increases. But when people become less fearful, demand for gold falls, and its price decreases. Gold price is always volatile and difficult to gauge. Most investors would invest in gold ETF for example $iShares Gold Trust(IAU)$ or $SPDR Gold Shares(GLD)$ to play safe. Thanks @Tiger_comments @TigerStars @Tiger_SG @GoodLife99
CME Raised Margin: Silver -9%! Time to Pivot on Precious Metals?
Silver futures fell 9% after CME Group announced on December 30 that margin requirements for gold, silver, platinum, and palladium futures will be increased following Wednesday’s market close. The higher margin requirements mean traders will need to post more collateral when trading precious metals futures, effectively reducing the amount of leverage available. This regulatory move has put investors on alert and sparked concerns over whether the recent rally in precious metals can be sustained. Is this a healthy risk-control measure—or a signal that the rally may be overheating?
