The rebound in domestic prices tracked a strong recovery in global precious metals markets. Gold and silver prices surged on Tuesday after heavy selling pressure at the end of last week, lifting mining stocks and precious metal-based investment products across major exchanges.

According to goldprice.org, spot gold prices jumped sharply on Tuesday. As of Feb. 3, 2026, at 10:56 a.m. New York time, gold was trading at $5,070.13 per ounce, up $436.25 or 9.41%, reflecting a swift rebound from recent losses.

The rally followed an abrupt collapse on Friday, when gold prices fell nearly 10% and silver plunged as much as 30% in a single session, the steepest daily decline for silver since 1980. Investors have since been reassessing whether the drop signaled a structural shift in the market or was merely an exaggerated response to short-term pressures.

Mining entrepreneur Frank Giustra, quoted by Kitco, described last week’s sell-off as a liquidity-driven event rather than one caused by changes in underlying fundamentals. He argued that thin market conditions amplified the decline, particularly as Asian markets were closed at the time.

Giustra also pointed to high leverage, especially in silver, as a key factor behind the sharp fall. The volatility was followed by tighter trading conditions, with the CME Group raising margin requirements for gold and silver futures effective Feb. 2. Maintenance margins for speculative gold positions were increased to 8% from 6%, while silver margins were lifted more sharply to 15% from 11%, forcing traders to post more collateral.

He added that a correction had been inevitable after a rapid, near-parabolic run-up that pushed gold prices close to $5,000 per ounce, stressing that the long-term investment case for the metal remains intact despite the sharp pullback.
