Gold and Silver Rebound After Historic Wipeout as Analysts Say Thematic Drivers Stay Intact
Gold and silver prices rebounded after historic declines, driven by short-term factors while core demand, including industrial uses and investment interest, remains strong, Deutsche Bank said.
- On Tuesday, spot gold jumped as much as 4%, trading at $4,771.76 per ounce, while silver futures rose 7% to $82.67 in New York futures markets.
- Following a near-10% gold plunge on Friday, silver suffered a roughly 30% collapse amid a dollar rebound and position-trimming.
- Deutsche Bank strategists said short-term catalysts explain last week's moves but raise questions about market positioning, while eToro analyst Zavier Wong noted that silver has attracted more retail participation than gold, and Barclays acknowledged overheated technicals but said gold's broader bid remains resilient.
- Investors' intentions across official, institutional, and individual channels have not likely changed for the worse, and Deutsche Bank said the broader investment case for gold and silver remains intact.
- Long-Term forecasts show total demand reaching 48,000 tonnes to 54,000 tonnes by 2030 while supply is expected to rise only to about 34,000 tonnes, with the solar sector consuming 10,000-14,000 tonnes annually.
