Rising geopolitical tensions and falling Treasury yields boosted demand for precious metals.
Gold gains ground as traders focus on falling Treasury yields. Interestingly, demand for gold remains strong ahead of the Fed meeting, which may send hawkish signals.

The nearest resistance for silver is located in the $23.40 – $23.60 range. A move above the $23.60 level will push silver towards the next resistance at $24.40 – $24.60.
Platinum tests new highs amid a broad rally in precious metals markets.
In case platinum manages to settle above the resistance at $925 – $935, it will head towards the next resistance level at $900 – $1000.
