## Cross-asset
| Instrument | Close | Day Δ |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Spot gold (GC=F) | $4,016.00 | -2.76% |
| GLD | $365.92 | -3.02% |
| IAU | $74.99 | -3.03% |
| SLV (silver) | $51.78 | -7.09% |
| SI=F (spot silver) | $57.55 | -7.21% |
| HG=F (copper) | $5.99 | -2.50% |
| SPY | $733.24 | -0.05% |
| 10Y yield (^TNX) | 4.402% | -5 bps |
| TLT | $87.38 | +1.37% |
| DXY | 101.58 | +0.16% |

## What's unusual
Gold sold off 3% **despite** a bond rally (10Y -5 bps, TLT +1.37%) and an essentially flat tape (SPY -0.05%). The standard yield-gold correlation broke: falling real rates should have supported GLD, not pushed it lower. DXY barely moved (+0.16%), so it's not a USD-strength story either. Silver collapsed 7% and copper fell 2.5% — broad metals deleveraging, not a gold-specific event.

## Rates backdrop
10Y yield 4.402%, holding below 4.45% intraday and breaking under the 4.45–4.50% corridor that capped gold for two weeks. Yields falling is supportive for gold on a macro basis, but the price action ignored it today. This is the cleanest signal in two weeks that the move is positioning-led, not macro-led.

## Implications
- Long gold/PM trade has been unwinding for a week; today's action looks like the third leg of forced selling / margin pressure in the metals complex
- Silver's -7% versus gold's -3% is the Au/Ag stress signal — historically a deleveraging/positioning extreme rather than fundamentals
- Copper participating (-2.5%) means industrial metals joined the sell, ruling out a "safe-haven gold unwind" narrative — this is a wholesale metals-complex liquidation
- The yield-gold divergence is the key tell: when bonds rally and gold falls, the move is flow-driven, not macro-driven
- Watch: GLD $365 area is the next support test; $360 / $355 below that. If 10Y holds <4.45% and SPY doesn't break lower, this likely fades within 1–2 sessions. If yields bounce and SPY sells off, GLD could see another 3–5% leg down before stabilizing
- Tomorrow's NAV update will be the first read on whether today's selling exhausted or accelerated
