1. Macro & Sovereign Bullion Dynamics
Gold and silver's macro backdrop continues to hinge on real yields, the US Dollar Index, and central bank reserve buying. Check a live macro data source for current US 10-Year real yield and DXY levels rather than relying on this summary alone; sustained central bank gold accumulation, reported quarterly by the IMF and World Gold Council, remains a structural demand theme worth tracking.
