Ghana's finance minister proposed a two percentage point cut in a mining levy to facilitate a new gold royalty regime, which aims to replace the flat rate with a sliding scale of 5%-12%. This change, set to take effect soon, has raised concerns among miners about its potential impact on less profitable operations. The Chamber of Mines is advocating for a lower royalty range of 4%-8% and wider price bands to avoid squeezing higher-cost mines. The government is open to dialogue, but the new regime may still be enacted unless amended by parliament.

Morgan Stanley warns that copper miners' valuations are becoming risky, urging investors to be selective. The bank notes that while strong metal prices and M&A speculation have driven stock prices up, companies with limited growth potential may face challenges. They downgrade Antofagasta, citing its high valuation and the risk of rotation away from expensive stocks. Overall, the market is seeing a bounce in precious metals, with European stocks rising.

GLOBAL MARKETS-Global stock index flat with oil rallying on Iran worries as gold, silver rise

Institutions are reducing positions due to extreme volatility and gold and silver breaking key trend lines, while retail investors are "bottom-fishing" in physical assets to form support. Whether the current rebound is a short-term "dead cat bounce" or a restart of the bull market depends on whether gold can stabilize above key resistance levels (such as around $5,100) and whether silver can break through the $92 resistance. The long-term bullish logic (central bank gold purchases, interest rate cut expectations, etc.) has not been overturned, but the market needs time to digest high volatility and rebuild technical structures

- The gold and silver markets are at a critical juncture following historic sell-offs, with investors split on whether recent price rebounds are temporary or indicative of a long-term bull market.  
- While institutional investors are reducing risk exposure due to volatility, retail demand remains strong, particularly for gold, as buyers capitalize on lower prices.  
- Despite short-term uncertainties, major financial institutions like Deutsche Bank and Goldman Sachs maintain bullish long-term price targets for gold, driven by ongoing central bank purchases and macroeconomic factors.

Gold's recent volatility challenges its status as a safe haven for investors. The metal experienced a 10% drop, its largest in over 40 years, followed by a significant rise, leading to a one-week volatility spike above 90%. Central banks have increased gold reserves amid concerns over U.S. fiscal policy, but recent price swings may prompt a reevaluation of gold's role as a hedge. Analysts remain divided on gold's long-term viability, with some suggesting it still serves as a useful hedge, while others recommend exploring alternative portfolio strategies.
