FXStreet Insights Team FXStreet

The report from OCBC Bank, authored by Sim Moh Siong and Christopher Wong, notes that Gold and Silver have rebounded due to dip-buying interest as liquidation pressures eased. However, sentiment remains cautious, and the report anticipates consolidation rather than a trend reversal. The year-end forecasts for Gold and Silver remain at USD5,600/oz and USD133/oz respectively.

Gold and silver rebound on dip-buying

"The rebound suggests that forced selling and margin-related liquidation pressures may have faded, at least for now."

"While positioning has likely reset to some extent, confidence may not have fully restored, pointing to a potential period of choppier, two-way trading."

"We stick to our year-end forecasts for gold and silver at USD5,600/oz and USD133/oz respectively."
