截至 2025年9月15日，黄金快速上涨至 3674 美元/盎司，首次突破1980年通胀调整峰值。其主要原因是美国就业疲软，市场担忧美国经济基本 面，交易"低增长+高通胀"的滞胀逻辑，并提高了美联储降息的预期，叠加特朗普频繁施压美联储换人，市场质疑美联储政策的独立性。 一、我们认为虽然黄金长牛的逻辑仍在，但短期或存在回调风险。从交易指标上看： 1、黄金处在超买水平，波动可能加大。当前黄金14日RSI达78，已经超买至近10年超90%的分位水平，意味着或有部分止盈兑现离场。更重要的 是，相较于表现更为极致的RSI，全球ETF流量、现货和期货持仓等并没那么热。所以我们担心黄金交易短期过热，存在回调风险。 2、黄金ETF的资金流并未形成一致性趋势。从区域来看，近一个月，美国黄金 ETF 流入量较大，中国反而在流出。美国前三大黄金 ETF共流入 约 3670 亿美元，中国两只黄金 ETF 合计流出超 265 亿美元，成为全球唯一显著减持区域。从机构与散户行为来看，散户在边际增持黄金机构则 边际减持黄金。 4、Comex 黄金投机性净多头仓位回落。根据美国商品期货交易委员会（CFTC），投机性黄金净多头头寸快速下降，机 ...
