Gold (XAU/USD) Slips 1.2% Before 50-Day MA Provides Support. Acceptance Above $4500/oz Remains Key
Gold (XAU/USD) price dipped 1.2% before finding support at the 50-day MA ($4419/oz), but acceptance above $4500/oz is key. Geopolitical risks (US/Venezuela/Russia tensions, Greenland acquisition talks) and softer US employment data (job openings, ADP) are underpinning the metal. Investors now focus on Friday's NFP data, which is set to be the next catalyst. Technical support is strong, but a strong NFP could threaten $4400/oz.

Chart Alert: Gold (XAU/USD) is losing bullish momentum below US$4,500, bearish reversal next
Gold (XAU/USD) is showing signs of a short-term bearish reversal as prices struggle to break above the critical US$4,485–4,500 resistance zone. Bearish RSI divergence and a completed Fibonacci retracement suggest the recent rebound may be a countertrend move. A break below US$4,430 could trigger deeper downside toward US$4,333–4,243, while only a clear move above US$4,500 would restore bullish control.

Silver (XAG/USD): A major top or a correction before new highs?
Silver was the standout performer of 2025, surging 159% on the back of safe-haven demand and robust industrial use in solar, electronics, and data centres. While fears of a speculative bubble have resurfaced after a sharp late-December pullback, historical indicators suggest silver has not reached a major long-term top. Technical signals instead point to a multi-week corrective phase before the next potential leg higher.
