Jordan Roy-Byrne argues gold and silver are in the final capitulation phase of an intermediate-term correction and likely near a bottom before July. He ties the weakness to higher real and nominal rates, a flattening yield curve, and washed-out sentiment/breadth, while identifying support zones in gold, silver, and the miners as the setup for a coming buying window.

Jordan Roy-Byrne’s core thesis is that gold and silver have entered the final stage of an intermediate-term correction, and that the selloff is close to exhaustion rather than the start of a new bear market. He says the probabilities favor the correction ending before July, and frames the current phase as “final capitulation,” with a possible V-bottom after one last wave of panic selling in the next one to two weeks. He starts with the macro backdrop: higher nominal and real interest rates, plus a flattening yield curve, have been bearish for gold and precious metals. In his view, a steepening curve is bullish for gold, while a flattening curve is bearish; what changes the setup is either long rates rising faster than short rates or, eventually, rates topping out and the 2-year yield rolling over, which would likely precede rate cuts. …
Near term, the setup is still vulnerable to one more flush in gold, silver, and miners before a tradable low forms. The actionable risk is being early while breadth and support levels are still being tested.
Over the next several weeks, the base case is for the correction to complete and for precious metals to recover if rates stop rising faster and breadth stabilizes. If support breaks cleanly and participation keeps deteriorating, the bottom likely shifts further out.
Structurally, he sees gold in a secular bull market with the current decline as a pause inside a larger uptrend. The regime implication is that weaker macro growth and eventual easier policy should ultimately re-ignite the metals cycle.
Gold and silver have entered the final capitulation phase of an intermediate-term correction.
This is the central thesis stated immediately at the start and repeated throughout the video.
Higher nominal and real interest rates, along with a flattening yield curve, are the main drivers of gold's weakness.
He explicitly says the weakness is related to rates and explains the yield-curve mechanism.
A steepening yield curve is bullish for gold and precious metals, while a flattening curve is bearish.
This is a direct framework statement that he uses to interpret current market action.
