Introduction 

In a world of fluctuating economic landscapes and geopolitical uncertainty, gold and silver continue to serve as reliable safe-haven assets for investors. The resilience of these precious metals amidst market turbulence underscores their value in portfolio diversification and risk management. As central banks adjust their monetary policies and global events unfold, it is crucial to stay informed about the fundamental and technical drivers shaping gold and silver prices.

Fundamental Analysis

Gold:

Gold remains on a strong upward trajectory, stabilizing near the $2,650 mark despite the upbeat market sentiment driven by recent Chinese stimulus. With the Stochastic Oscillator reading at 87 and the RSI at 72, the metal is in overbought territory, but bullish momentum persists. A break above the previous high of $2,676 could see gold testing the $2,700 level. On the downside, immediate support lies at $2,623, followed by a critical level at $2,600, which if breached, could indicate a deeper correction.
