Physical Gold Steady, Silver Surges Past $36 as Investors Eye Trade Developments

Spot gold prices are trading at $3,323.85 per ounce this morning, reflecting a modest $13.71 gain as optimism over easing U.S.-China trade tensions tempers safe-haven demand. The market remains cautious ahead of high-level discussions between U.S. and Chinese officials, with traders hesitant to take significant positions until more clarity emerges. Gold is maintaining a weekly gain of over 1%, underpinned by ongoing central bank purchases and persistent geopolitical uncertainties. Analysts note that the $3,300–$3,400 range is a critical support zone, with any sustained move below potentially signaling a buying opportunity for long-term investors.

Silver, meanwhile, has extended its impressive rally, breaking above $36.63 per ounce for the first time in over 13 years and posting a $0.65 gain today. The surge is driven by robust industrial demand—particularly from the solar sector—and significant inflows into silver-backed exchange-traded funds. Silver’s year-to-date gain now approaches 26%, and the market is closely watching the $36.78 resistance level. Both metals remain in focus as global economic and policy uncertainties persist.
