在大宗商品指数年度再平衡临近之际，白银连续第二个交易日大幅下挫，市场预计未来几天将有价值数 十亿美元的期货合约被动卖出。相比之下，黄金走势趋于稳定，收复了盘中部分跌幅。 白银盘中一度下跌5.5%，此前一个交易日已重挫近4%。随着指数权重调整，跟踪指数的被动型基金自 周四起开始抛售贵金属期货，以匹配新的配置要求。这一过程通常属于例行操作，但在黄金和白银去年 经历大幅上涨后，今年的再平衡对市场的影响显得尤为显著。 汇丰控股贵金属首席分析师James Steel表示，黄金的涨势源于避险与风险规避需求的叠加效应，美元走 弱和政策不确定性进一步放大了这一趋势。他预计，在地缘政治风险上升和财政赤字扩大的背景下，黄 金有望在2026年上半年升至每盎司5000美元。 世界黄金协会1月6日发布的数据显示，各国央行在去年11月合计净买入45吨黄金。与此同时，中国人民 银行已连续14个月增持黄金，官方需求持续成为支撑金价的重要力量。 市场目前正关注周五将公布的美国12月就业报告。若数据表现偏弱，可能强化市场对美联储进一步降息 的押注，从而为不生息的贵金属价格提供新的上行动力。 相比黄金，白银去年的涨势更为强劲，全年涨幅接近150% ...
