Core Viewpoint - The international gold and silver markets experienced a significant pullback, with gold prices falling below the $4800 mark, reflecting a volatile trading environment influenced by geopolitical tensions and market reactions to U.S. policy announcements [1][6][11]. Market Performance - As of January 22, gold was reported at $4793.99 per ounce, with a daily decline of 0.82%. Silver also faced a drop, initially falling over 3% before rebounding to around $93 per ounce [1][11]. - The A-share market saw a collective decline, with major gold stocks like Western Gold and Shandong Gold dropping over 4%, while Hunan Silver surged over 6%, marking a year-to-date increase of over 110% [2][11]. Price Fluctuations - Gold prices reached a historical high of $4890 per ounce on January 21 but subsequently retreated to the $4800 range due to easing geopolitical tensions regarding Greenland [5][16]. - The market's volatility is attributed to U.S. President Trump's statements regarding Greenland, which alleviated fears of a trade conflict that could have driven investors towards safe-haven assets like gold [6][16]. Influencing Factors for Gold Prices - Goldman Sachs raised its gold price target for the end of the year from $4900 to $5400, citing increasing demand from private investors and central banks [9][19]. - Four key factors are expected to influence gold prices this year: 1. Rising U.S. fiscal risks due to increasing national debt and economic policies under the Trump administration, leading to a decline in the attractiveness of dollar assets [7][17]. 2. Global central banks' increasing willingness to hold gold as part of their asset allocation strategies amid economic uncertainties [8][18]. 3. Continued expectations of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, supporting the appeal of gold as a non-yielding asset [8][18]. 4. Escalating geopolitical risks, particularly related to U.S. interventions in Venezuela and Greenland, which heighten market demand for safe-haven assets [8][18].
