To prevent a spiral into a cycle of violence, Western governments issued 🔴 red alerts. An escalation into a full-scale regional conflict could have devastating global effects.Led by the United States, Western countries condemned Iran's actions. The international response varied:Turkey urged Iran to prevent further escalation; China adopted a policy of appeasement; 🇷🇺 the Russian Foreign Ministry called for "restraint" from all parties; and Syria, an ally, emphasized Iran's "right to self-defense."🌐📉 The Middle East's unrest has global implications, affecting capital

The situation in the Middle East has once again become the focus of the market in recent days, with some concerns about the conflict between Iran and Israel. Although both sides have shown signs of perseverance, it is more likely that there will be “big thunder, little rain”. At the same time, referring to the geopolitical conflicts and small-scale military operations that have occurred several times before, the financial market can basically digest the impact within a week, so short-term fluctuations are difficult to shake the market trend.In theory, gold and crude oil are naturally the most sensitive to this topic. Last Friday's rise and fall seem to have previewed the weekend's soap opera in advance: Compared with a real fight, it seems more cost-effective to make a tough statement to g

Driven by the escalation of geopolitical conflicts, market concerns about the tense situation in the Middle East and the interruption of energy supplies such as oil, international crude oil once soared sharply. The picture shows the price trend of the May WTI crude oil futures contract, which is currently hovering at $86.35.PictureFrom the perspective of supply and demand, the sluggish demand has led to no large-scale destocking even though OPEC continued to cut production. However, U.S. crude oil took the opportunity to seize market share and increased production and exports on a large scale. The global crude oil supply is not tight. The rise in crude oil prices is mainly due to the geopolitical crisis and speculative buying under the expectation of the Fed's interest rate cut. Looking ah

The bulls in the crude oil market that continued in the first quarter have helped the price return to the central axis level we defined. With the emergence of high pressure and the small deviation between US stocks and stock indexes, we expect that it will be more difficult for oil prices to go up. For low buy/long investments, now may be the time to at least partially lock in profits.At the end of last year and the beginning of this year, we introduced the composition of crude oil price range: above 95/100 is the level of selling crude oil reserves by the US government (Biden made clear), while below 70 US dollars is the level of buying back crude oil reserves. The 84 line in the middle of the two is defined as the central axis because of the obvious change of hands. Under the big shock m

Among overseas institutions, one of the banks optimistic about this year's international gold price is Bank of America, which maintains its expectation of $2400 per ounce. Currently, the market believes that the influence of the Federal Reserve's interest rates and monetary policies on the international gold price is decreasing. In this situation, the rise in the $USD Index(USDindex.FOREX)$ and U.S. Treasury bond yields is unlikely to affect global gold purchasing demand, as central banks of various countries continue to diversify their foreign exchange reserves by purchasing gold.Will the gold $Gold - main 2406(GCmain)$ $VanEck Gold Miners ETF(GDX)$

$Gold - main 2406(GCmain)$ has been on a tear lately, reaching new highs. While this might sound positive, it could foreshadow some bumps in the road for the stock market. Here’s why. Gold Futures Gold is often seen as a safe haven during economic uncertainty. Investors flock to gold when they're worried about stocks, bonds, or the overall health of the economy. So, a rising gold price could signal that investors are growing anxious. When gold goes up, it becomes a more attractive investment compared to stocks. This can entice investors to move money out of stocks and into gold, potentially dampening the stock market's momentum. It's important to remember that correlation doesn't always equal causation. Just because gold is rising doesn't guar

In the past month, gold $Gold - main 2406(GCmain)$ prices are hitting new highs. And on the first trading day of April, the price of gold hit a record high of $2,265. Besides the latest inflation data in the US that solidifies the expectation of Fed rate cuts, precious metal prices are also supported by risk factors such as geopolitical tensions.Meanwhile, the price of large Gold mining stocks, represented by $VanEck Gold Miners ETF(GDX)$, is still down 2% over the past year; Junior Gold Miners, represented by $VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF(GDXJ)$, are down 1.17% over the same period, puzzling investors.This is the biggest disconnect he's seen in his 25 years

From the market situation in the past few years, it is not difficult to find that the current US government has a very strong control over the financial sector, and their trading methods are also comfortable. Since the first quarter of last year, NVIDIA, the first AI concept, is still the leading core variety, and they have also promoted the overall bull market of US stocks. This year, another one pushed to the front desk is BTC, which is well known but not much involved.Once upon a time, many Wall Street giants also said that BTC was defined as a channel for fraud and money laundering. However, this thing has boarded the hall of ETF in a twinkling of an eye. It is obviously unreasonable to say that there is no intentional promotion from Biden administration. Behind this is naturally the f

On Thursday night, the price of gold continued to hit a record high, which indicated that the market fully expected to cut interest rates. However, when the market fully expects, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell will come out and pour cold water on the market.After all, expectation management is one of the important tasks of the Federal Reserve, so no matter what he says, the key depends on how the Fed does its follow-up actions. Even if the interest rate cut is really delayed, it is only an adjustment to re-hype the interest rate cut expectation. The market does not think that you will really exceed expectations, unless this week's non-farm data can exceed expectations, which may bring some adjustments to asset prices.First, pay attention to the strength and weakness of the US stock indexS
