It depends on a lot of things. I got a big shock waking up with a 5+% drop and plummeting this week (or last 🥹🤔🤦♀️), but I did predict that exact pullback to dip and show a strong signal (you know that dip before going up steadily for awhile). It seems to be flashing that for me so I'm going to go with A. At least by Monday. Friday is usually selloff day so it may only reach it's previous levels. Depends on the US index/$ (& how other safe havens are doing). I think we'll see XAU hit $6000 sooner than April/early May. Might be $8000 towards the tail end of this year!
CME Relaxes Margins: Will "Gold Rush" Comeback?
Effective after the close on March 6, 2026, the CME Group has slashed initial margin requirements for Gold (from 9% to 7%) and Silver (from 18% to 14%). This move signals an end to a relentless cycle of six consecutive margin hikes that aimed to curb the "volatility" in early 2026.
The fundamental demand remains institutionalized: the World Gold Council reports a massive $5.3 billion net inflow into gold ETFs in February, 9 consecutive month of growth.
Will margin cut invite a fresh wave of leveraged speculators?
Will gold start a sustained rebound?
