The crazy precious metals market continues. On December 22, spot gold surpassed 4,400 US dollars/ounce, spot silver surpassed 69 US dollars/ounce, both of which reached record highs. Spot platinum rose above 2,000 US dollars/ounce for the first time since 2008. According to the news, the recent rise in geopolitical tension is one of the triggers. According to a Xinhua News Agency report, according to a NBC report on the 20th, Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is preparing to inform US President Trump that Israel may attack Iran-related facilities again amid concerns about Iran's “expanding its ballistic missile production.” Furthermore, the US intercepting the tanker has further exacerbated the tension between the US and the US. According to a Xinhua News Agency report, several US media reported on the 21st that the US Coast Guard was still chasing the “Bella 1” tanker in international waters near Venezuela that day. This is the third tanker the US has intercepted in less than two weeks to put pressure on Venezuela. Looking back over the past year, the precious metals market was extremely booming. Thanks to factors such as the global central bank buying boom, interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, and rising safe-haven demand, as of December 22, the price of gold had risen by more than 60% this year, while the price of silver had risen by more than 130%.
