On the evening of Thursday, January 14, US Eastern time, Biden will announce the details of a new US epidemic rescue plan, according to CNN, citing people familiar with the matter. Biden's aides recently told allies in Congress that the bailout package is about $2 trillion.

According to a congressman who has been in close contact with the Biden team, although the specific size is still likely to change, the Biden team has "set great goals" for the package.

On Friday, Biden proposed a trillion-dollar stimulus package in his speech. "We need fiscal spending now, and the whole package will reach trillions of dollars." In order to prevent the economic collapse and deterioration this year, we now need to invest a lot of money to develop the economy. "

According to previous media reports, Biden's economic stimulus package will be divided into two steps: the first is to hand out $2000 in cash for each person, and the second is to pass a $3 trillion tax and infrastructure package.

Biden's move surprised Wall Street. The reason is that Wall Street had expected that it would be difficult for the Democratic administration to come up with a stimulus bill of more than $1 trillion. Goldman Sachs, for example, believes that after Biden took office, its stimulus bill was about $750 billion.

[SMM Silver Weekly Review: Silver Prices Swing Wildly with Center Moving Up; Spot Shifts from Discount to Premium] This week, silver prices swung wildly with the center moving slightly higher.

Macro factors were mixed, and the market awaited guidance from CPI and the US Fed meeting, with wild swings expected in the short term. Inventory saw a slight buildup of 6 mt, ETF holdings edged up, and wait-and-see sentiment strengthened.

WPIC Revises 2026 Platinum Market to 265,000 oz Surplus as Investment Demand Weakens
[SMM Flash] The World Platinum Investment Council (WPIC) has revised its 2026 platinum market balance to a 265,000 oz surplus, reversing its previous forecast for a 297,000 oz deficit. The latest Platinum Quarterly, published on September 9, showed a second-quarter surplus of 244,000 oz as total supply increased 1% year on year to 1.91 million oz while demand fell 16% to 1.66 million oz. The revision largely reflects investment outflows during the first half of 2026 rather than a significant recovery in mine supply. Despite the full-year surplus forecast, WPIC says above-ground inventories remain constrained following three consecutive years of substantial deficits. The organisation expects the market to swing from a 548,000 oz surplus in H1 to a 283,000 oz deficit in H2, as investment selling moderates. The H2 balance remains a forecast rather than a confirmed outcome.
