Introduction

In today’s ever-shifting global markets, gold and silver remain steadfast as essential safe-haven assets for investors looking to safeguard their wealth amidst economic uncertainty. As central banks navigate evolving monetary policies and geopolitical tensions continue to influence financial markets, precious metals offer both stability and growth potential. This report provides an in-depth analysis of the fundamental and technical factors impacting gold and silver prices, giving investors the insights they need to stay ahead in these turbulent times.


Fundamental Analysis

Gold:

Gold continues to struggle to gain significant traction, remaining range-bound as investors weigh mixed economic data. The $2,686–$2,700 range serves as immediate resistance, while support lies around the $2,623 level. Despite this consolidation, the oscillators remain comfortably in positive territory, suggesting that the market may still be in a bullish phase. However, further gains will depend on a sustained break above $2,670. The Stochastic Oscillator currently reads 81, indicating overbought conditions, while the RSI stands at 68, suggesting room for moderate upside.
