Gold and Silver Prices Rebound Dramatically

On Tuesday, both gold and silver experienced significant gains, with gold on track for its largest single-day increase since November 2008. This surge came as investors returned to precious metals after a historic two-day selloff. By 12:34 GMT, spot gold had jumped 5.3% to $4,913.59 per ounce, recovering from Monday’s low of $4,403.24. Last week’s high of $5,594.82 per ounce still stands as a record. Meanwhile, U.S. gold futures for April delivery advanced 6.1% to $4,936.20 per ounce.

Silver also saw a remarkable turnaround, soaring 9% to $86.60 per ounce on Tuesday. This follows a dramatic 27% plunge on Friday—the largest one-day drop on record—and an additional 6% decline on Monday.

The 5% Era of US Treasury Bonds Arrives: No Short-term "Explosions", but Pressure May Appear in 12 to 18 Months

The real impact of high interest rates lies in their duration. A large amount of debt issued at 2%-3% in 2020-2021 is now facing the pressure of being rolled over at a cost of 6%-8%, and this shock will concentrate and erupt in 12-18 months. The US housing market will bear the brunt, while commercial real estate, highly leveraged companies, and private equity-backed firms are also at serious risk. If high rates persist for more than half a year, the market’s tolerance will be completely exhausted.
