Precious metals have posted high-double-digit YTD gains but extreme RSI readings across the precious metals complex resemble prior late-cycle exhaustion phases.
Prior silver (2011) and platinum (2008) peaks saw weekly RSI above ~88–91, conditions that historically preceded blow-off tops and sharply negative forward returns.
With long-only demand exhausted, mean reversion in Gold–Platinum and Gold–Silver ratios offers cleaner late-cycle exposure than outright metals.
