Macro funds played a role in last week’s melt-up in Gold prices, TDS’ Senior Commodity Strategist Daniel Ghali notes.

Recent liquidations are likely related to constrained risk-budgets

“Our advanced positioning analytics corroborates our view that macro funds played a role in last week’s melt-up in Gold prices, suggesting that recent liquidations likely related to constrained risk-budgets, as opposed to a directional view on Gold.”

“Considering this cohort’s net position still remains at levels broadly consistent with early-2024, and that prices continue to hold north of $3000/oz, we think their repleted warchest will chase the run higher in prices, fueling more FOMO into the yellow metal. It’s still ‘heads I win, tails you lose’, but it’s the other side of the coin that is now screaming FOMO.”
