Gold and silver prices rose in 2025 amid inflation fears but fell sharply in early 2026 as expectations for Federal Reserve rate hikes increased. Rising core inflation pushed bond yields higher globally, though U.S. Treasury yields rose less due to increased short-term debt issuance and less quantitative tightening. Large fiscal deficits in the U.S. and other major economies pose risks of higher long-term bond yields or increased demand for precious metals as safe havens. Near-term precious metals prices and bond yields will likely respond to central bank rate changes, while long-term trends depend on fiscal policy and political actions to control deficits. Equity market performance also remains a key factor influencing inflation and monetary policy outlooks.
