Iβm closely tracking the sharp dislocation between precious metals and equity markets as July closes out with fireworks. While silver has broken out decisively, equities are contending with macro shocks and volatility whiplash.
πͺ Silver Streaks Ahead, Gold Lags Slightly
Since 2015, gold and silver have traded with a strong positive correlation. But from May to July 2025, silver has clearly taken the lead, surging 15.1 percent compared to goldβs modest 0.9 percent gain. This short-term divergence suggests speculative momentum is building around silverβs industrial demand and inflation hedge appeal. Goldβs slower ascent may reflect its role as a more defensive reserve asset, but the trend remains firmly upward with both now testing new highs.
On the 4H chart, gold ($3,380.50) has just cleared a Keltner and Bollinger cluster, riding the upper bands with rising EMAs and narrowing volatility; typically a sign of trend continuation. MACD crossovers and RSI shifts support this bullish continuation unless it closes back below the 13EMA.
π From Trillion-Dollar Panic to Tech-Led Relief
The U.S. stock market saw a $1.1 trillion evaporation on August 1 following weak job numbers and new tariff rhetoric. The sharp 1.7 percent drop was the steepest daily loss since Q1. But by August 4, a 1.6 percent recovery emerged, almost entirely retracing the selloff. Driving the rebound: renewed Fed rate cut expectations, mega-cap tech resilience, and a pullback in trade war fears.
Yet Iβm cautious. This recovery could be a relief bounce rather than a full risk-on regime. Volatility remains sticky, and goldβs strength may be signaling hedging flows into hard assets as real rates peak.
π§ What Iβm Watching
β’ Gold resistance near $3,420 and $3,465 from upper channel extensions
β’ Silver continuation above $38 could ignite a new leg targeting $42
β’ SPX sector rotations and breadth recovery to validate equity follow-through
β’ Options flow in GLD and SLV ETFs for directional bias confirmation
Iβm positioning with a macro lens: watching for confirmation in yields, the dollar, and cyclical data. If silverβs breakout holds while gold consolidates, I may consider short-dated SLV call spreads as a risk-defined trade.
