As a globally important derivatives exchange, CME Group announced a significant margin adjustment on December 26, stating that the performance margin for gold, silver, lithium, and other metal futures contracts will be raised after the close on December 29 (Monday). Market participants believe that this move reflects the exchange's deep concerns about the abnormal volatility in the precious metals market. In order to address market volatility and ensure adequate collateral coverage, CME Group will increase the performance margin for various metal futures contracts, including gold, silver, palladium, platinum, lithium, and corresponding settlement price trading contracts (TAS), after the close on December 29, 2025, covering standard, mini, micro, and other contract specifications for almost all core metal trading products under CME Group.
