Report Industry Investment Rating The provided content does not mention the report industry investment rating. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The pricing logic of gold has undergone a profound transformation, with the traditional "real interest rate" and "US dollar" pricing anchors losing effectiveness after 2022. A diversified pricing system centered on "fiat currency credit hedging" and assisted by "global geopolitical order reconstruction" has emerged. In 2026, gold is expected to verify and extend the stability of this system, with an annual operating range of $3,900 - $4,800 per ounce and an average annual price of around $4,500 per ounce [2][113]. - Silver is likely to follow the trend of gold, with a greater price elasticity. In 2026, the shortage in the silver fundamentals and inventory liquidity risks are expected to become consensus and supporting factors, with the expected regression of the gold - silver ratio as the main driving force. The London spot silver is projected to fluctuate between $50 - $80 per ounce [2][116]. - In the context of the systematic re - evaluation of gold as a core credit - hedging asset, 2026 will be a year of both opportunities and further differentiation for platinum and palladium. Their prices will not only follow the upward trend of gold's financial attributes but also continue the divergent trend of "strong platinum and weak palladium" due to their different fundamentals. The London spot platinum is expected to find strong support in the $1,450 - $1,550 per ounce area and challenge the key resistance range of $1,800 - $2,000 per ounce, with an average annual price of around $1,750 per ounce. The London spot palladium is expected to oscillate in a wider range, with support at $1,050 - $1,250 per ounce and resistance at $1,600 - $1,800 per ounce, and an average annual price of around $1,300 per ounce [5][117]. Summary According to Related Catalogs 1. 2025 Year - end Review and Influencing Factors of Precious Metals - Gold: In 2025, the gold market was influenced by multiple factors such as global macro - economic conditions, geopolitical changes, and market sentiment. The London spot gold fluctuated between $2,613.9 - $4,381.17 per ounce, with an average price of about $3,400.79 per ounce, a year - on - year increase of about 40%. The price increase was driven by factors including Trump's policies, Fed policy changes, and concerns about the US dollar's credit [7][8]. - Silver: The London spot silver achieved a historical breakthrough, fluctuating between $28.311 - $58.968 per ounce, with an average price of $38.192 per ounce, a year - on - year increase of about 33.2%. The price increase was promoted by the strong rise of gold and the expected regression of the gold - silver ratio [8]. - Platinum and Palladium: In 2025, the platinum and palladium markets were a game between supply - demand mismatch and financial attributes. The London spot platinum fluctuated between $878.3 - $1,770 per ounce, with an average price of about $1,253.3 per ounce, a year - on - year increase of about 30%. The London spot palladium fluctuated between $870.5 - $1,695 per ounce, with an average price of $1,165.7 per ounce, a year - on - year increase of about 18.5%. On November 27, 2025, the Guangzhou Futures Exchange officially launched platinum and palladium futures [5][10]. 2. 2025 Precious Metals Fundamental Analysis - Gold Supply - Demand Balance: In 2025, the supply of gold increased slightly, with a 1.2% increase in output to 3,717.4 tons in the first three quarters compared to the same period last year. The net demand for gold increased by 10% to 3,639.7 tons in the first three quarters. The gold surplus decreased to 77.7 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 78.7%. Investment demand returned, with an increase in the demand for gold bars, medals, and an increase in the holdings of gold ETFs. However, central bank gold purchases decreased by 12.5% to 633.6 tons [28][41][43]. - Silver Supply - Demand Balance: In 2025, the global silver supply increased slightly, reaching 32,055 tons, a year - on - year increase of about 1.5%. The total demand was 35,716 tons, a slight decrease of 1.4% compared to 2024. Industrial demand remained stable, investment demand recovered, and traditional photography, jewelry, and silverware demand declined. The silver market was in a supply shortage for the fifth consecutive year [46][47][49]. - Platinum and Palladium Supply - Demand Balance: The supply of platinum and palladium was unstable in 2025. Global platinum mine production was expected to decline by 6%, and palladium mine production was also expected to decline by 6%. However, recycling improved. Platinum demand was diversified, while palladium demand was highly concentrated in the automotive sector. Platinum demand was supported by the "platinum replacing palladium" trend and the growth of hybrid vehicles, while palladium demand faced a structural decline due to the increase in electric vehicle penetration and platinum substitution [58][59][62]. 3. Macro - analysis: Multiple Narratives of Gold in the Intersection of the US Mid - term Election Year and Geopolitical Fission - US Mid - term Election Year: In 2026, the US government may adopt expansionary fiscal and monetary policies to boost election support. Fiscal deficits are expected to widen, and the Fed may cut interest rates. However, these policies may also lead to concerns about "stagflation" or "re - inflation" and increase short - term volatility in gold prices through trade and tariff policies [74][75][76]. - Geopolitics: The geopolitical situation in 2026 will be more complex, with a shift from traditional military confrontation to a "composite game" in the economic, trade, and technology fields. Although the peace process in the Middle East and Ukraine may bring short - term stability, potential risks still exist. Gold will have a structural premium due to geopolitical uncertainties, and central banks and large institutional investors will continue to increase their gold holdings [91][92]. - Financial Market Narrative: In 2026, the narratives of "soft landing", "re - inflation", or "stagflation" of the US economy will compete, leading to further differentiation in asset prices. Gold has become an asset for hedging against the volatility of US stocks, and the impact of the US dollar on gold prices needs to be considered in terms of its short - term and long - term trends [105][110][112]. 4. Conclusion - Gold: In 2026, gold is expected to oscillate upward and set new historical highs, with an annual operating range of $3,900 - $4,800 per ounce and an average annual price of around $4,500 per ounce. The price may experience different stages: high - level oscillation in the first half of the year, a main upward wave in the second half, and a potential technical correction in the fourth quarter [113][115][116]. - Silver: Silver is expected to follow the trend of gold with greater elasticity. The London spot silver is projected to fluctuate between $50 - $80 per ounce in 2026 [116]. - Platinum and Palladium: Platinum is expected to show stronger price elasticity and upward potential, while palladium is likely to oscillate in a wider range with a downward - shifting center of gravity [117].
