Gold, Silver, Platinum, and Palladium Surge: Go Long or Short? Which ETFs to Choose?
$XAU/USD(XAUUSD.FOREX)$ rises to a fresh all-time high near $4,500, marking roughly the 50th record break this year and positioning both gold and silver for their strongest annual performance in more than four decades. $Silver - main 2603(SImain)$ passes $70!
The latest surge has been driven by renewed bets that the Federal Reserve will deliver two rate cuts in 2026, alongside heightened geopolitical risk, with major banks including Goldman Sachs arguing that structural support for gold remains intact into next year.
While the U.S. dollar has remained superficially stable during the surge in metals prices, this does not necessarily contradict the broader “currency debasement” narrative taking shape beneath the surface.
Since the Federal Reserve’s Jackson Hole meeting in August, precious metals have moved sharply higher in a short period of time.
Silver has surged 76%, palladium is up 65%, and platinum has gained 45% over roughly four months, while gold—often seen as the primary hedge—has lagged with a still-significant 30% increase.
The synchronized rise across gold, silver, platinum, and palladium has reinforced the view that this is a systemic trade rather than an isolated commodity move.
The idea of currency debasement has re-entered market discussions as U.S. federal debt continues to expand, recently reaching $38.5 trillion and growing at an annual pace of around $3 trillion.
