#贵金属黄金与白银刷新历史高位 The geopolitical situation is heating up, and various assets are all on the move. David Wilson, head of the commodities research department at BNP Paribas, recently shared some interesting insights: the current political uncertainty is becoming the main driver pushing gold prices higher, and he predicts that the momentum for gold to surge toward $5,000 per ounce could be more aggressive than the market initially expected.

The situation with silver is a bit more complicated. From a price perspective, as $BTC breaks out, silver indeed has a chance to reach the psychological threshold of $100 per ounce. But the problem is—once the disturbances in physical supply subside, a wave of selling is likely to follow, and the rebound momentum may not last as long.

Therefore, the precious metals market is now in a delicate stage: gold and silver have upward support mechanisms, but silver's sustainability is relatively fragile, and it still depends on whether the actual supply side can continue to create support points.

Gold price $5000? Oh, now retail investors are back to bottom fishing. Just don't cry if you're trapped later. Silver at $100 feels about the same. Supply stabilizes and it immediately plunges. I've seen through it long ago. Geopolitical chaos has indeed fueled precious metals, but honestly, how long can it last... I have no confidence. BTC has already hit new highs, and following gold and silver is a bit forced. It doesn't seem sustainable. Supply is the real boss; other factors are just虚的. But speaking of which, the logic of political uncertainty is quite solid. When risk assets are volatile, precious metals indeed become attractive. Silver is much more fragile than gold. I agree with this judgment—easy to be sold off, easy to be sold off. $5000 sounds great, but if you ask me, it's hard to reach in one step. Repeated shakeouts are inevitable.

Gold prices breaking 5000 is not that simple, and the geopolitical situation is also uncertain about how long it can hold up. Silver at 100? Uh... don’t get too excited yet, once supply stabilizes, it will have to run. This round of precious metals is just a hot potato, gold is okay, but silver is truly fragile. The folks at 法巴 (BNP Paribas) love to make big promises, believe half of it to stay safe. In reality, silver has been supported mainly by speculation; without heat, it quickly falls behind. Gold prices are pushing upward, no doubt, but whether they can truly stabilize depends on the supply side. Geopolitical risks this time may not really sustain the price long-term. That 100 level for silver... feels like it’s about to become a trap again. The precious metals market is delicate as hell; honestly, it’s just gambling on geopolitics + supply. Optimistic about gold prices, but silver really just touches and runs.

The gold price of 5000 is indeed tempting, but I don't want to jump into the silver trap anymore. Last time, I got cut deeply.

Gold and silver are both soaring, but I still only trust BTC. Silver at $100 might be just a flash in the pan.

If gold prices really hit 5000, I'll buy a house. Silver is unpredictable and not very meaningful.

I have to question this logic about silver—does a supply disruption necessarily mean a sell-off once it subsides? What about data support? Let's look back at the historical context.

Gold is indeed fierce this time, but I still have some doubts about silver. As soon as the supply side eases, it has to run away.

Will gold prices hit 5000? Sounds good, but I always feel like it's about to plunge. This wave of silver feels like a false fire; once supply stabilizes, it will immediately revert to its original state. The real money makers are probably stockpiling physical assets, I think.

Gold price at 5000, I think it's a gamble, silver at 100 is really tempting Wait, is the supply side going to dump again? This trick is getting old The logic that political uncertainty pushes up gold prices is not wrong, but silver's fragility will eventually let it down BTC hits a new high, gold and silver follow suit, it all feels like speculation... Is there any real support? This wave of silver feels a bit虚, once it hits 100, you better run quickly, or you'll lose big The upward mechanism for gold is indeed there, but its sustainability? Well... it depends on what happens next When geopolitical tensions heat up, do precious metals necessarily rise? It's always the same story, when will there be a real breakthrough?
