    Although the high gold-silver ratio might suggest that silver has been a laggard, that is far from the case. Silver has rallied 43% in the past year, and gold has been just a bit better with a 44% gain. This year, using popular exchange traded funds as a gauge, iShares Silver Trust (SLV) is up 10% and SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) is up 11%.

    Gold still looks good, dollar dropped

    “The de-escalation of tensions in the Middle East is the primary factor that’s weighing on gold. The safe-haven bid has diminished and the market is in more of a risk-on mode,” said Peter Grant, vice president and senior metals strategist at Zaner Metals.

    “We’ve got pretty good support around $3,300 and then even better support probably at $3,250.”

    Global shares surged and the dollar dropped on Tuesday after news of the ceasefire between Israel and Iran, while markets shrugged off what U.S. President Donald Trump called violations by both sides.

    Gold to remain stong, silver expected to rise

    Gold prices firmed on Wednesday as investors stayed cautious amid lingering uncertainty over the U.S.-China trade truce and waited for key U.S. inflation data for clues on the Federal Reserve’s interest rate trajectory.

    Spot gold XAU= was up 0.3% to $3,330.69 an ounce at 1122 GMT. U.S. gold futures GCcv1 were up 0.3% to $3,351.60.

    “Gold should remain supported as long as global trade tensions risk escalating further, or even just staying elevated for longer.”

    “We expect silver to reach $38/oz in the coming months. Market deficit considerations and a weaker USD hold the key for even higher prices – a test of $40/oz is possible,” UBS said.
