12月4日，黄金与白银在12月初同步上行，显示市场风险偏好与宏观预期正发生显著切换。白银率先突 破每盎司58美元的名义历史新高，而黄金在经历短暂获利回吐后重新企稳约4232美元附近，为下周的联 储会议积累进一步冲高的空间。本周初金价一度攀升至4265美元的六周高点，虽然次日回调至4164美元 附近，但随后迅速恢复至4200美元一线，年内累计涨幅依旧维持约60%，呈现数十年来最强劲的一次年 度表现。FPG财盛国际表示，贵金属在宏观不确定性升温阶段展现出典型的避险属性增强。 展望后市，短期关键变量集中在周五就业数据与联储12月政策指引。若政策基调偏向鸽派，黄金有望向 历史高点靠拢，白银甚至可能上试65美元区域。FPG财盛国际认为，当前行情虽具备突破动力，但在前 期涨幅过大背景下，市场进入事件密集期前的波动与获利了结压力也需被投资者纳入考量。 白银的波动性与趋势力度更为突出。12月2日创出58.39美元新高后，白银维持在57.60–58.00美元之间震 荡整理，同时其强势走势促使金银比进一步压缩至73：1。过去数月市场预期金银比将持续下行，而当 前结构也确实指向这一趋势仍未结束，首个支撑区在72附近。同时，历史经验 ...

市场解读： 12月4日，周三国际金市呈现出持稳态势，现货黄金价格大多数时间稳定在每盎司4200上方，疲软的美 国就业数据一度帮助金价盘中触及4241.40美元的高点，但尾盘回吐涨幅，收报4203美元附近，接近收 平。与此同时，白银价格周三刷新历史高点，盘中一度达到58.96美元附近，仍为黄金提供了支撑，也 反映出市场对美联储降息的强烈预期，推动美国债市收益率回落、美元走软以及股市上涨。随着美国劳 动力市场意外下滑和美联储宽松政策信号日益明显，白银的强势飙升已点燃贵金属板块热情，而黄金作 为传统避险资产，似乎正蓄势待发。 黄金技术分析： 黄金日内依然会走震荡，等待破位性行情。周三更加缩小区间在4240/4195，都没有超过50美金，收盘 价位保持在4212附近，暂时的思路要维持周二，周三的看法不变，先看震荡走势，再看周四的美盘是否 破位区间。 从技术面来看，日线连续两个小阴线收低，布林开始收口了，但是均线没有破位，所以暂时还不能说要 走出大跌空间，能看跌，至少要跌破布林中轨4150的支撑，跌破后空头的力度就来了，再看周五的下跌 空间。H4周期的区间范围比较明显了，布林收口，均线系统粘合，基本没有上面扩展性，所以 ...

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core View of the Report - The Fed's future interest rate cut expectations support precious metal prices. Economic and employment data are mixed, which disturbs the probability of the Fed cutting interest rates in December. Global central banks' continuous gold purchases and geopolitical risks may support precious metal prices in the medium to long term. The supply - demand expectations of platinum and palladium are different, and their prices may be adjusted due to various factors such as interest rate expectations and supply - demand changes [1] 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 3.1 Precious Metal Market Data - **Shanghai Gold**: On December 3, 2025, the closing price was 956.70 yuan/g, the trading volume was 273,359.00, and the inventory was 90,873.00 (ten - gram). Compared with the previous week, the closing price increased by 9.54 yuan/g, and the trading volume decreased by 26,737.00 [1] - **Shanghai Silver**: The closing price of the futures active contract was 13,423.00 yuan/ten - gram, the trading volume was 2,664,403.00, and the inventory was 626,633.00 (ten - gram). Compared with the previous week, the closing price increased by 159.00 yuan/ten - gram, and the trading volume increased by 2,464,589.00 [1] - **COMEX Gold**: The closing price of the futures active contract was 4,133.80 dollars/ounce, the trading volume was 169,613.00, and the inventory was 36,573,657.72 (troy ounces).

The US ADP employment in November unexpectedly declined, with a decrease of 32,000 jobs, the largest decline since March 2023. However, the US ISM services PMI expansion speed was the fastest in nine months, the price index was at a seven - month low, and the employment index was at a six - month high [1] 3.3 Gold and Silver - **Multi - empty Logic**: US economic and employment data in November were mixed, disturbing the probability of the Fed cutting interest rates in December. But the probability of a December rate cut was still over 80%. Fiscal stimulus policies in multiple countries led to expectations of debt expansion and fiscal deficits, and central banks' continuous gold purchases and geopolitical risks may support precious metal prices in the medium to long term [1] - **Trading Strategy**: Buy on price dips. For London gold, pay attention to the support level around 3,800 - 4,000 dollars/ounce and the resistance level around 4,300 - 4,600 dollars/ounce. For Shanghai gold, the support level is around 890 - 920 yuan/g and the resistance level is around 970 - 1,000 yuan/g. Similar support and resistance levels are provided for silver [1] 3.4 Platinum - **Multi - empty Logic**: Supply is affected by high mining costs, unstable power supply, etc., and demand is expected to increase due to stricter emission standards. The supply - demand of platinum is expected to be tight from 2025 - 2026. However, the expectation of the Bank of Japan raising interest rates and high platinum prices may suppress downstream demand, leading to price adjustments [1] - **Trading Strategy**: Hold previous long positions cautiously or take profits on rallies. Consider the "long platinum, short silver" arbitrage opportunity. For London platinum, pay attention to the support level around 1,300 - 1,500 dollars/ounce and the resistance level around 1,800 - 2,000 dollars/ounce. For domestic platinum, the support level is around 335 - 385 yuan/g and the resistance level is around 465 - 516 yuan/g [1] 3.5 Palladium - **Multi - empty Logic**: Supply is affected by mining difficulties but may increase due to vehicle scrapping. Demand from the automotive industry is expected to decline, and the supply - demand of palladium is expected to shift from tight to loose from 2025 - 2026. Interest rate expectations and supply - demand changes may lead to price adjustments [1] - **Trading Strategy**: Hold previous long positions cautiously or take profits on rallies. For London palladium, pay attention to the support level around 1,190 - 1,390 dollars/ounce and the resistance level around 1,600 - 1,800 dollars/ounce. For domestic palladium, the support level is around 305 - 357 yuan/g and the resistance level is around 415 - 465 yuan/g [1]
