Gold & Silver Afternoon Update 12/8/2025 | The Bregar Minute
Another frustrating rest of the day for the gold bulls, mainly because of a spike higher for US yields into the London close and due to the market’s inability regain Friday’s lows when a solid 3yr note auction calmed bonds down a little bit. I think it’s fair to blame the stock market, which trended lower all day; and the fact that the S&Ps can’t bounce materially into the close now makes me skeptical of this late gold breakout attempt above its COMEX closing range. Silver surprisingly still looks in relatively better shape here, thanks to it coming nowhere close to re-testing the overnight and Friday’s lows. A hawkish hold to policy is expected from the Bank of Australia tonight when it announces its latest decision. The ADP Average Employment change data for the 4-weeks ending Nov 22, and the October JOLTs Job Openings number, highlight tomorrow morning’s economic calendar.
