Chart alert: Gold rally faces risk of exhaustion below $5,170
Gold’s 15% rebound from $4,405 is losing steam as prices stall below key $5,170 resistance. The usual inverse correlation with the US dollar has weakened, while the Shanghai gold premium has flipped into discount, signalling softer physical demand. Bearish RSI divergence raises the risk of a pullback toward $4,795–$4,703 unless bulls reclaim momentum above $5,170.

Precious metals after the correction: stabilisation, not a new rally
Gold and silver have partially recovered after a sharp correction, but valuations remain elevated. The recent rally was not supported by falling real rates or higher inflation expectations, leaving prices vulnerable. Safe haven demand driven by geopolitical and policy uncertainty remains strong, limiting downside risks, but future gains are likely to be slower and more volatile.
