Could be some safe-haven demand given the recent equity market volatility, or perhaps just a technical breakout after consolidating for a bit.
It looks like the dollar weakness is a major factor, with the DXY dropping significantly today. That, combined with some renewed inflation concerns, could be driving demand for precious metals.
