Gold and silver prices hit record highs last week as the fear and greed index tilted toward extreme fear, pushing investors into safe-haven assets. Spot gold climbed to nearly $4,550 per ounce, while silver surged past $79, gaining over 10% in one session. Low liquidity in the precious metals market amplified price swings. The Fed’s December 31 meeting minutes will be closely watched for rate-cut signals. Analysts at Goldman Sachs and BMO Capital Markets differ on 2026 outlooks, with some bullish on gold and others wary of silver and platinum corrections.
