Xin Lang Cai Jing· 2025-12-17 05:15
责任编辑:陈平 12月17日,金价周二小幅上涨,主要受美国11月失业率上升的数据推动,市场认为这将强化美联储未来 降息的预期,并导致美元走软,增强了黄金的吸引力。截至收盘,现货黄金上涨0.2%,报每盎司 4310.21美元。美国黄金期货则微跌0.1%。美元指数跌至两个月低点,同时美国10年期国债收益率小幅 走低,均为金价提供了支撑。市场分析认为,最新的就业报告为美联储提供了更多降息的理由,而低利 率环境通常利好黄金。数据显示,美国11月非农就业岗位虽有所反弹,但失业率从9月的4.4%升至 4.6%,高于经济学家预期。目前利率期货市场预计2026年美联储将累计降息约59个基点。投资者正等 待本周晚些时候公布的美国11月消费者物价指数及个人消费支出物价指数,以进一步确认通胀路径。有 分析师预测,若黄金在2025年收于每盎司4400美元上方,2026年可能有望上探4859至5590美元的区间。 当前盘面来看,维持大原则看涨黄金不变的前提下,继续看黄金在这个周期的调整力度和上涨空间,首 先要强调,在趋势中的上涨空间有多大,这个周期目前的高点是4350,4350破位就看4385,不管是本 周,还是上周的高点都有相对应的 ...

黄金行情走势分析: 12月17日,黄金昨日先承压4320震荡修整,下方一度回撤至4272附近,晚盘行情有所回弹,非农数据与 失业率虽矛盾,但最终也触发了市场对美联储降息预期的增强,黄金因此在数据后再回升,高点测压 4335附近,其后行情有所回撤至4300附近,日线最终收得一阴十字星线。 日线结构上来看,在前两个交易日均收冲高回落线的情况下,昨日市场情绪已经有回撤修整表现,而非 农数据又打乱了这一技术趋势节奏,不过昨日最终收得高位十字星线,依然还是有负面影响的,即多头 还是有所顾忌的,并不是无脑亢奋式上涨,那么短线也就有进一步调整的可能性。日内黄金上方可关注 日线级别区间上沿4355附近压力测试,下方着重关注5日线4300附近争夺,大概率会在此区域内先震 荡,至于最终是选择上破还是下破暂时不好预判,需要结合后期基本面情况以及市场的实际情绪趋向再 做调整。 小时图上来看,原本预期昨日黄金会有一个较大的回修动作,甚至可能回到4240附近去,然在非农数据 的干扰下,行情并未完全调整到位,技术上积压的空头调整需求也就未能得到充分的释放。隔夜非农后 的行情走势反倒使得行情在小时图级别再度进入高位三角区间震荡的可能,当然基 ...

Group 1 - The core viewpoint of the articles highlights the significant rise in silver prices, driven by multiple factors including expectations of Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, global supply constraints, and its inclusion in the U.S. critical minerals list, with silver reaching a historic high of $65.163 per ounce, marking a nearly 110% increase this year, outperforming gold and platinum [1][2][6] Group 2 - The surge in demand for precious metals is attributed to rising debt levels in major Western economies and the risk of currency devaluation, with supply shortages becoming a key support for silver prices [2][5] - The structural supply constraints in the silver market are emphasized, with about 70-80% of silver production being a byproduct of mining for other metals, indicating that supply cannot quickly expand even if prices rise [3][5] - The anticipated interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve are seen as supportive for precious metals, with a recent slight decrease in the probability of a rate cut to 87.4% not diminishing investor interest in silver [6][7] - Analysts suggest that while silver prices may experience high volatility and potential corrections in the short term, the long-term outlook remains bullish due to structural supply-demand imbalances [8]
