U.S. stocks slightly pull back, but mining stocks defy the trend and strengthen—what's going on with the precious metals sector?

Abstract generation in progress

【BiTu】U.S. stocks opened with slight adjustments today. The Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 0.06%, the S&P 500 fell 0.05%, and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 0.04%.

Interestingly, amid the weakening of the indices, mining stocks performed remarkably well. The group of precious metals and rare metals miners saw significant gains—Gold Fields (GFI.N), Pan American Silver (PAAS.O), and Harmony Gold (HMY.N) each rose about 3%, while Coeur Mining (CDE.N) and Newmont Mining (NEM.N) increased by more than 2%.

This divergence is worth noting. When macro risk appetite decreases, safe-haven assets tend to be favored, and demand for precious metals also rises. For friends who focus on macro trends and asset allocation, this wave of mining stocks may offer some reference.

Wait, mining stocks are soaring against the trend? What does this imply, is risk coming? --- Gold is starting to bleed again, always like this, whenever the market weakens, it jumps around wildly. --- NEM and CDE are rising so fast, it feels like I need to reassess safe-haven allocations. --- Why does it seem like mining stocks soaring together is like shouting "economic problems," it's terrifying upon closer inspection. --- This wave of contrarian moves in the precious metals sector, contract traders are probably going to get wiped out. --- Just by looking at the performance of mining stocks, you can tell what institutions are doing—quietly bottom-fishing gold. --- Here we go again? Every time the market adjusts, someone calls for investing in precious metals, then? Then it continues to fall. --- This divergence looks interesting, but do I dare to go all-in on mining stocks? I wouldn't dare. --- So should I allocate to gold now or keep holding onto tech stocks? I'm really torn. --- Mining stocks are surging so strongly, it feels like the market is deleveraging, which is not a good sign.

Gold is starting to attract investment again, and this time it's really different... Sure enough, when the market trembles, precious metals begin to pick up the slack. Mining stocks are up by 3 points against the trend, how timid is that... The market is signaling risk.

Reverse trading in mining stocks is indeed interesting. When risk aversion sentiment rises, gold and rare metals become popular. I understand this logic, but I don't know how long it can last.
