随着停火重塑牛市，金价攀升

Gold rose because the ceasefire triggered a broader shift in markets: oil prices fell, the US dollar eased from recent highs, and bond markets strengthened, which lowered pressure on real yields. These moves improved the macro backdrop for a non‑yielding asset like gold, even though safe‑haven demand might normally cool when geopolitical tensions ease.

‍

Not necessarily. The ceasefire is temporary and conditional, and major outlets highlight that there are still significant unresolved issues in the negotiations. That keeps a degree of uncertainty in the system, so some investors continue to hold gold as a hedge against the risk that talks break down or the conflict widens.

‍

When oil prices surged earlier in the conflict, they reinforced worries that inflation could stay elevated, prompting investors to scale back expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts. That helped push US Treasury yields and the dollar higher, a combination that tends to pressure gold and contributed to the metal’s sharp decline in March despite ongoing geopolitical risk.

‍

The Fed’s stance on interest rates is central to how gold trades. Recent minutes from the March meeting show officials still concerned about inflation and willing to keep policy restrictive, and possibly even tighten further if needed. That limits how far real yields and the dollar can fall in the near term, and markets are watching upcoming inflation data to judge whether the Fed can eventually move toward cuts, which would be more supportive for gold.

‍

If inflation data come in stronger than expected, markets may reinforce a “higher for longer” view on interest rates, lifting yields and the dollar and potentially capping gold’s advance. Softer‑than‑expected inflation, on the other hand, could make it easier for the Fed to contemplate future rate cuts, which would generally be more favourable for gold.
