Precious metals extended an advance for a second straight session on Aug. 6, with capital rotating around safe-haven demand, according to WEEX TradFi market data. Gold, silver and platinum all moved higher over the latest 24-hour window: GOLD (PAXG) gained more than 4.88%, SILVER (XAG) rose more than 4.71%, and PLATINUM (XPT) climbed more than 2.30%. The synchronized move put all three metals on an uptrend at the same time. WEEX Labs said the rally is mainly driven by repair trading after a recent pullback. Market participants are weighing geopolitical risks as well as moves in the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields, which has brought renewed focus to gold's safe-haven and portfolio diversification attributes. WEEX TradFi's trading carnival is now live, with zero-slippage execution, first-order compensation, and a 200 USDT reward for new users. The data was flagged by ChainCatcher on Aug. 6, citing WEEX TradFi's market snapshot.
