Although gold and silver saw disappointing price action on Friday, experiencing their worst daily loss since mid-December, some analysts note that the damage to the broad rallies has been limited.
The gold market started the week holding initial support around $2,880 an ounce. Spot gold last traded at $2,896.50 an ounce, up 0.50% on the day. Silver is also finding solid support, as it has bounced off its overnight lows just below $32 an ounce. Spot silver last traded at $32.20 an ounce, up 0.20% on the day.
Alex Kuptsikevich, Chief Market Analyst at FxPro, said in a note that gold’s price action has become a little more complicated following Friday’s selloff, as buyers have become more cautious.

The precious metal has gained nearly 12% in the year-to-date and is set to benefit from continued macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, alongside potential U.S. interest rate cuts, according to the industry body’s World Silver Survey 2025.
“While ongoing uncertainties elsewhere, along with silver’s healthy supply-demand conditions, will offer support, we do see prices easing back in late 2025.”
Supply is expected to rise by just 2% and demand to ease by only 1%, setting the stage for a 117.6 million ounce deficit.
“We very much expect such a dynamic will emerge eventually, but we feel that a few more years of deficits are needed first to further erode above-ground silver inventories.”

“Silver’s been a laggard, and some would refer to it as the Cinderella metal, because it always misses the ball. Having said that, silver has finally woken up and broken above some key technical resistance,” independent analyst Ross Norman said. If current momentum continued, silver could challenge the $35 level, he added.
“Silver has a long history of higher volatility than gold, and that when gold makes a decisive move, silver’s amplitude is usually 2.0-2.5 times that of gold,” StoneX analyst Rhona O’Connell said in a recent note.

The metal is showing strong upside potential, with the next target range between $34.87 and $35.40. However, traders should remain cautious as silver is currently well above key support levels at $32.53 and the 50-day moving average at $31.75.
