Precious metals markets rebound sharply after a historic selloff, posting one of the strongest two-day recoveries on record. Gold surges 15.62% from Monday’s lows, climbing back above $5,000 per ounce and restoring roughly $4.74 trillion in market capitalization within 48 hours.
Silver delivers even steeper gains, rising 26% from its recent trough. The rally adds about $1 trillion to silver’s market value over the same period, underscoring extreme short-term volatility and aggressive repositioning by traders following forced liquidations.
In total, nearly $6 trillion flows back into precious metals markets in just two days. Analysts say the speed of the rebound reflects a combination of short covering, renewed safe-haven demand, and fragile liquidity conditions that continue to amplify price swings.
