â#âGold hit $4,734/oz ATH a few weeks ago. Now itâs $4,188.
âSilver? Down 31% in 2 days after hitting $95/oz.
âCopper wiped out its NY premium too.
â
âWhy it happened:
1. âTrump tariffs: Threatened 25% tariffs on Europe â fear â metals pumped to ATH. Then said âwaitâ â pump faded.
2. âFed pick: Trump nominated Kevin Warsh for Fed Chair. Warsh = hawkish, fewer rate cuts. Dollar up, metals down.
3. âCME margins: Exchange raised margin requirements on gold/silver futures right after. Forced selling.
â
âWhatâs next for traders:
· âCopper: Supply still tight. JPMorgan sees $12,000/ton in Q1 2026. Long-term bullish on EVs/AI.
· âGold/Silver: Rangebound until Fed path is clear. BofA still calls $5,000 gold for 2026, but 270+ tons of ETF gold underwater below $4,250.
· âRisk: Trump tariffs + China demand + Fed rates = 3 triggers to watch.
â
âTranslation: Expect more wild swings. Donât use max leverage on metals right now đïž
