Market sentiment shifted away from an extremely defensive stance toward more rational observation, easing concerns over potential conflict and policy escalation. As safe-haven demand softened at the margin, the precious metals market entered a phase of adjustment. Short-term funds took profits at elevated levels, triggering a pullback in silver that corrected the&nbsp;previous&nbsp;session\u2019s sharp rally. Gold also came under pressure, trading in a volatile range and briefly retreating to around USD 4,756 intraday. Buying interest on dips stayed active, limiting downside risk for gold. Overall, precious metals are transitioning from one-sided,&nbsp;sentiment-driven moves toward high-level consolidation and a structural repricing phase.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Asset Performance and Fundamental Analysis<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>1.
