What drives precious metals.
Precious metals are priced in US dollars and pay no interest, so they are particularly sensitive to changes in interest rates, the US dollar and market sentiment.
Real yields
Changes in interest rate and inflation expectations alter the opportunity cost of holding a non-yielding asset.
US Dollar
Precious metals are quoted in US dollars; they usually come under pressure when the dollar strengthens and find support when it weakens.
Risk sentiment
When uncertainty rises, safe-haven demand may drive flows into gold.
Industrial demand
Silver’s use in solar, electronics and other industries makes it more sensitive to the economic cycle.
Volatility is part of the product.
Precious metals are not a byword for “stable” or “safe”. In leveraged trading, metal prices can move quickly on data releases or unexpected events, and leverage magnifies both gains and losses.
- Silver usually moves in wider ranges than gold
- Spreads and slippage may widen around major data releases
- Check margin, swaps and trading sessions before trading
