白银却呈现出相对坚挺的走势，盘初一度触及每盎司38.36美元的高点。这可能反映了市场对白银在工 业和金融双重属性下的乐观预期，尤其是在新能源、半导体和制造业复苏背景下对白银需求的重新评 估。白银价格在某些阶段会受益于黄金的带动，但当黄金自身动力不足时，白银能逆势走强，往往意味 着资金正在寻找更高波动率、更具杠杆效应的配置标的。 尽管全球贸易摩擦再起、经济数据即将出炉，市场本该进入避险模式，但本周二现货黄金却自三周高位 小幅回落，未能延续前一日的强势走势。与此同时，白银却在盘中触及2011年以来的最高点，维持强劲 表现。这种"金弱银强"的分化行情在贵金属市场并不常见，尤其是在美元大幅走强、宏观不确定性上升 的背景下，更加值得警惕。 DLSM从价格表现来看，现货金报3344.46美元/盎司，回落0.1%，美期金同样小幅收低，显示市场在短 期内对黄金的追涨意愿并不强烈。美元则是关键影响变量之一。近期美元指数创下近三周新高，受到特 朗普关税政策不断加码及美联储短期内不急于降息的支撑。强势美元压制以美元计价的黄金价格，令其 吸引力下降，部分短期资金转而观望或流向更具弹性的资产。 钯金与铂金的同步回调则进一步表明，整体贵 ...
