๐ŸŸก Gold Overview

 

Gold started the period at $3,355.91/oz on July 12 and experienced strong bullish momentum, peaking at $3,431.50/oz on July 22, marking a new 2025 high. This rally was largely driven by weaker U.S. dollar performance, easing bond yields, and heightened safe-haven demand following trade tensions and geopolitical uncertainty.

After the July 22 peak, gold faced profit-taking pressure, leading to a mild correction. By July 25, prices dipped to $3,337.18/oz, before stabilizing and closing at $3,336.22/oz on July 25.

On July 23, silver hit $39.278/oz, its highest price since 2011, supported by industrial demand from sectors like electric vehicles (EVs), solar energy, and AI-related technologies.

Silver Analysis:
Silver’s price action highlights both industrial demand strength and speculative buying, as traders react to tight global supply and rising technological consumption. A breakout above $39.50/oz could push silver toward $40–41/oz in August, while $38/oz remains a key support level.


Market Drivers for July 12–26

  1. U.S. Dollar & Treasury Yields: A weaker dollar and lower yields supported gold and silver, reducing the opportunity cost of holding metals.

  2. Geopolitical Risks: Tariff tensions between the U.S. and EU, plus ongoing conflicts, drove safe-haven demand.

  3. Industrial Demand: Silver benefited from increased consumption in EV batteries, solar panels, and tech components.

  4. Central Bank Activity: Continued gold buying by central banks provided an additional bullish backdrop.

  5. Speculative Momentum: Both metals saw strong speculative trading volumes, especially silver after breaking the $39 barrier.
