JP Morgan: Technical indicators show that precious metals will enter a consolidation period in the coming weeks > JP Morgan expects that gold will form a wide fluctuation range that may last for several months, above the support level of USD 4,264-4,381 and below the resistance level of USD 5,100-5,150. The long-term theme of "currency devaluation" remains intact, as long as the US dollar index continues to stay below 100, the weak dollar environment will continue to support the long-term bullish logic for precious metals and commodities The unilateral rise in precious metals has temporarily come to a halt. According to news from the Chase trading desk, JP Morgan technical strategist Jason Hunter and his team released a report on Thursday stating that although the foundation for a long-term bull market trend remains solid, the recent sharp fluctuations have led to a technical pattern indicating that the market has officially entered a consolidation phase. **The bank expects gold to form a wide oscillation range that may last for several months, above the support level of $4264-$4381 and below the resistance level of $5100-$5150.** The report also pointed out that the US dollar index hovering below the 100 mark, along with the trend of the S&P 500/gold ratio, suggests that the long-term "currency devaluation trade" has not ended. The current consolidation in precious metals is a pause in the bull market, rather than a bear market reversal. ## Short-term consolidation in gold, long-term bull market logic unchanged JP Morgan's technical team analyzes that the recent performance of gold prices shows short-term "explosive" reversal characteristics, which is often a precursor to the arrival of a consolidation phase, but this is by no means the end of a long-term rebound. **From a tactical perspective, gold prices will undergo a necessary consolidation period before challenging the 5100-point mark.** Investors need to pay attention to key technical levels to define the oscillation range: **On the downside,** the initial rebound in gold prices will be tested by mid-term support levels, especially the 50-day moving average around the 4500-point mark, as well as the breakout area in the 4264-4381 point region from the fourth quarter of 2025. **On the upside,** the rebound momentum is expected to weaken near the 5000-point mark, with stronger resistance located in the 5100-5140 point range. The report emphasizes that, in conjunction with long-term price patterns and comparisons to the end of the currency devaluation cycle in the late 1970s, the long-term currency devaluation cycle has not yet been completed. This means that the foundation for a bull market still exists, and the current consolidation is more about building momentum for future movements. ## Copper: A pullback is a buying opportunity Compared to precious metals, JP Morgan believes that base metals will show stronger resilience. Although LME copper prices have shown signs of fatigue and formed a deceleration pattern after reaching the mid-term target range of 14095-14596, the pro-cyclical rotation will provide support. From a technical perspective, **as the market enters consolidation, the first support level is expected to be in the 12074-12105 point area.** A more critical mid-term support level is located in the 11100-11200 point range. As long as market trading remains above this multi-year breakout area, the long-term bullish trend will remain intact. It is worth noting that the report indicates through regression analysis that the surge in copper prices is partly driven by "currency devaluation capital flows," with implied global manufacturing PMI expectations (around 53) significantly higher than actual readings (around 50.5). Although copper prices may have slightly overestimated the strength of the cyclical recovery, the integrity of the pro-cyclical trend means that copper will attract substantial buying interest during pullbacks ## Macroeconomic Drivers: Weak Dollar Supports Long Bull Market The core support for the long-term bullish logic of commodities still comes from the foreign exchange market. The US Dollar Index experienced significant fluctuations after attempting to break through the support level in the second half of 2025 in late January, and it is currently still trapped within a defined range. JP Morgan pointed out that the key is that the US Dollar Index has mainly operated below the critical long-term turning point of 100 for the past eight months. As long as prices remain below this level, the market is likely to resume the downward trend that began in early 2025. This weak dollar environment will continue to support the long-term bullish logic for precious metals and commodities ### Related Stocks - [IAU.US - iShares Gold Trust](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IAU.US.md) - [601899.CN - Zijin Mining](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/601899.CN.md) - [AEM.US - Agnico Eagle Mines](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AEM.US.md) - [GDX.US - VanEck Gold Miners ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GDX.US.md) - [GOLD.US - Gold.com](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOLD.US.md) - [SGDM.US - Sprott GLD Miners Etf](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SGDM.US.md) - [GDXW.US - Roundhill Gold Miners Weeklypay ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GDXW.US.md) - [GDXY.US - YieldMax Gold Miners Opt Inc Strgy ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GDXY.US.md) - [600489.CN - ZHONGJIN GOLD](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/600489.CN.md) - [GLD.US - SPDR Gold Shares](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GLD.US.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | 贵金属市场中，黄金价格保持稳定，市场正在等待美国与伊朗核谈判的结果 | 黄金价格保持稳定，投资者在等待美国与伊朗在日内瓦的核谈判结果。现货黄金的价格为每盎司 5,168.72 美元，而美国黄金期货下跌了 0.6%。分析师指出，黄金和白银在突破阻力位方面面临困难，地缘政治的不确定性影响了市场行为。一位伊朗高级官员 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277084332.md) | | 贵金属——由于避险需求，黄金正迈向连续第七个月的上涨 | 黄金价格预计将连续第七个月上涨，2 月份上涨超过 6%，主要受到美国关税不确定性和美伊紧张局势的影响。现货黄金价格为每盎司 5,181.18 美元，过去七个月上涨了 58%。分析师指出，地缘政治风险和关税政策是支撑黄金吸引力的关键因素。同时 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277169657.md) | | 黄金价格接近四周高点 | 黄金价格保持在每盎司 5180 美元以上，接近四周高点，受到地缘政治紧张局势和美国贸易政策不确定性的影响。美国在中东的军队增兵和对伊朗的制裁加剧了投资者的焦虑。此外，特朗普政府计划将关税提高至 15% 也引发了贸易伙伴的担忧。持续的通胀担忧 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276968775.md) | | 由于金价上涨提振了收益，中色金矿的下半年利润激增 384.1% | 中色金矿报告称，2025 财年下半年净利润增长 384.1%，达到 2620 万美元，主要受黄金价格飙升和产量增加的推动。收入增长 112.7%，达到 7560 万美元。公司提议 2025 财年末期股息为 0.008 新元，特别股息为 0. | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277035915.md) | | 印度放松监管，允许股票基金配置金银，持仓比例最高 35%！ | 印度证券交易委员会修订规则，允许主动管理型股票基金将最高 35% 的资产配置于黄金、白银及相关工具，为规模达 3840 亿美元的市场拓宽投资边界。此举正值全球贵金属需求升温，今年 1 月印度黄金 ETF 资金流入首超股票基金。 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277008783.md) | --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
