Silver (XAG/USD) has resumed a powerful uptrend, surging to fresh record highs above US$91 after erasing its early-January correction. Supported by rising geopolitical risk, softer US inflation, and expectations of extended Fed rate cuts, bullish momentum remains intact. A sustained break above the US$90.90 resistance could trigger further upside toward the mid- to high-US$90s, with the long-term secular uptrend firmly in place.

Gold (XAU/USD) has broken into price discovery after a shallow pullback, surging above its previous all-time high as bullish momentum accelerates. Supported by softer US labour data, easing inflation pressures, rising geopolitical risks, and capped US real yields, gold’s uptrend remains intact.
