Friends, the past week has been very interesting for gold and silver. Silver showed a dramatic rally of almost 12%. Gold was up 2%. If we analyze this entirely, the silver delivery on COMEX saw a jump of approximately $5, from around $9, and closed with a gain of $1.60. It is currently trading around $88. If we look at it in terms of weekly gain, this is the largest weekly gain since December 2026, after the week that ended, and it has been trending upwards for two consecutive weeks. Before that, it was a bit down. The previous week and the week before that were slightly down. It has shown a gain of $0.53 in the last two weeks, and a total gain of approximately 25%. That is, in the current rate, there has been a gain of 24.85%, approximately 25%, in the last two weeks. Out of the last 11 weeks, it has been trading with gains for 9 consecutive weeks. If we talk about Friday, there was a decline of 4.12%. It closed down by approximately $3.78 last week and last Friday, and it slightly pulled down the winning streak of the last week. This decline is the largest decline since January 7th, and this close is the third highest close in history, and it closed 4.12% below its 52-week high. Its 52-week high was $91.87. This is the COMEX delivery data that I am telling you, and it touched its high on January 15th. And if I compare it to its 52-week high, which was $29.11, it is 202.202% higher. The low it made was on April 4, 2025, at $29.11, and from there it is 202% higher. And if we talk about its 52-week high, it has shown a gain of around 185% in its 52-week high. So, this is the story of silver.
Now let's come to gold. If we look at gold for January delivery, it saw a gain of $8 last week, and it gained approximately 2.18% in the last week. It has been around $4588, its last traded price. And it has been showing gains for the last two consecutive weeks, and it has gained $274 in two weeks. That is, it closed approximately 6.35% higher. If we compare the last two weeks, it has been strong for five consecutive weeks. If we analyze six weeks, it has been strong for five out of six weeks. On Friday, it closed down by approximately $28. In percentage terms, this is 0.6%. It closed with a decline of about half a percent. And this is the largest decline in dollar terms after Wednesday, since January 7th, and it is the fifth highest close in history. If we look at it, it closed down by approximately $37.90. And if we talk about the last two sessions, it dropped $37.90 in the last two sessions. And out of the past four sessions, it has been down for three consecutive sessions. In four sessions, it was positive for two consecutive sessions before that, then negative before that. So, out of four, it was down for three sessions. And if we talk about the 52-week high, it hit a high of $4626. From there, it is approximately 82.82% lower, meaning around 1% lower. And it hit this high on January 14th. And if we compare it to the 52-week high it touched on January 27, 2025, it is trading approximately 68% higher from there. Its high was $372737. From there, it is 67% higher, and it is also around 67% higher than its 52-week high.
So, now we will talk about the fundamentals. In fundamentals, we will first look at the geopolitical scenario, which has eased. There has been some relief because earlier there was talk that Trump could attack Iran at any moment, and America was ready for military action. Many news reports were coming in. Even Trump had threatened that there could be serious consequences if action was taken against the protesters there. But later, his statement came that we are not attacking there for now, and we are in talks with Iran, and Iran has agreed that it will not take action. Because of this, we saw that the market was weak on Friday. Anyway, in our astrological calculations for the previous week, it was mentioned that the market could be weak on the 15th. We talked about weakness on the 15th and 16th, and it was weak on the 15th and also on the 16th. These two days were not good for gold and silver investors. That is why we saw some downside. This was about the easing of the geopolitical scenario. The second factor is the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve has a meeting on January 27th and 28th. In the meeting on January 27th and 28th, the Fed may decide to cut interest rates. If interest rates are cut, it will ultimately give gold and silver another push. Because in the speeches of many Fed members, the FOMC, which is their monetary committee that decides on interest rates, we are getting signals that a rate cut may come. Additionally, we will see the impact of the Rupee-Dollar in the coming week. We saw that on Friday, the Rupee showed its worst one-day fall in the last two months. So, keep this in mind. The tightness in the physical market has started to ease out a bit. If we look at the physical market, especially for silver, because COMEX warehouses have started coming back to Europe. Due to this, the physical tightness has eased out a bit in silver. This is also why we are seeing some weakness. And if we look at China, speculative demand there is very high. Even now, if we compare, the price in Shanghai is running $10 higher compared to COMEX. This means that fundamentally, China will remain a big factor. It will remain a factor next week as well. Compared to London, the rate there is still $10 higher, which is about 10%. So, if we talk about trading days next week, COMEX will be closed on the 20th due to Martin Luther King Jr. Day. That is, trading will only happen in our markets on the 20th. Trading will happen in China, and there will be no trading on COMEX on the 20th. COMEX gives us direction, so it is important for us to know that COMEX will be closed on the 20th. So, this was about the fundamentals of gold and silver for the coming week. Now let's see what astrology says.
If we look at astrology, on January 17th morning, meaning Saturday, the day we are shooting this video, at 10:27 AM, Mercury also entered Capricorn. Venus, the Sun, and Mars are already here. So, a four-planet conjunction has formed. The Moon will also be here. On the 19th, at 9:37 AM, Mercury and Saturn will come to a 60° axis. This axis is not good. That is, the 19th will also not be a good day. There will be a lot of volatility. On January 20th, at 1:09 AM, meaning midnight between the 19th and 20th, on Tuesday, Uranus will change its nakshatra pada. It is currently transiting in the Krittika nakshatra. This is a very important event, especially for silver. On January 20th, at 11:28 AM, Mars and Saturn will come to a 60° axis. This axis can also cause a stir in the market. Although COMEX is closed on the 20th. On Tuesday, January 20th, at 12:13 PM, Saturn will enter the Uttara Bhadrapada nakshatra. Rahu is already in its nakshatra. Saturn will enter its own nakshatra. The geopolitical scenario will be disturbed from here. After this, the market will turn around. After this, the market should see a rally. On January 21st, Wednesday, Venus will enter the Shravana nakshatra. At 2:54 AM, meaning the night of Mars and Mercury, Venus entering the nakshatra of the Moon is good for silver because both Venus and the Moon are factors for silver. So, it will become comfortable here. Thursday seems to be a slightly better day. After 2:20 PM, the Moon will also enter Jupiter's nakshatra. This will be a bit better for you. On Wednesday, January 21st, at 9:15 PM, the Sun and Mercury will come to a 0° conjunction. The 0° conjunction of Mercury and the Sun can also cause some volatility in the market. On Friday, January 23rd, at 10:27 AM, Mercury will enter Shravana. Here, you might see some decline in the market. Be cautious at this time. January 24th is Saturday, and on Saturday, at 10:56 AM, the Sun will enter Shravana. But the market will not be open at this time. So, its effect will be seen in the following week.
So, overall, the 19th-20th days seem a bit dicey. On the 19th, pressure may be seen. After the 20th, the market should improve. It seems that after the evening of the 20th, the market should improve, and on Thursday, in the afternoon, we may see good moves in the market. As for the Moon's position, I analyze it in detail in our group. Because the Moon changes its nakshatra pada four times in 24 hours and transits in a rashi once a week. For example, it will come to Capricorn, then to Aquarius, then to Pisces. But the change of the Moon's nakshatra pada also has its own impact. Where it is going, at what time it is going, and what volatility is there in the market at that time, that is a separate subject. But the coming week is going to be volatile, just like the past week. The market will remain mostly under pressure. Therefore, I think those who are trading in the market will have to be very careful.
