In December, the US CPI year-over-year rate remained at 2.7%, and the market reacted quickly. Spot gold rose by more than $10, and silver also followed suit. Stable inflation expectations have attracted funds to focus on the safe-haven value of precious metals, indicating a reassessment of the market's view on the Federal Reserve's policy path.

【BitPush】The US December CPI data just released—annual rate of 2.7%, the same as November, no surprises. The market had already digested this number quite a bit.

What’s interesting is the reaction speed. Less than a moment after the data was released, spot gold shot up rapidly, with a short-term increase of over $10, now standing at $1,613/oz. Silver is also not idle, rising by $0.3, now at $87.04/oz.

This wave of market movement signals—under the expectation of stable inflation data, the market is beginning to reassess the safe-haven value of precious metals. A stable CPI means the Federal Reserve’s policy path has a reference, and as a traditional hedge, precious metals naturally attract a lot of capital attention. For those focused on macro trends and asset allocation, this kind of volatility is worth paying attention to.
