However, Iran is not a member state of UNCLOS and therefore is not bound by the transit regime stipulated in the Convention.

Iran can charge fees for the services it provides, provided that the fees are consideration for the services provided and not simply taxes or tolls."June 20th - Several European countries have recently experienced high temperatures.

Gold Price Prediction: The XAU/USD pair approaches $1,880 following a robust comeback amid weaker US yields

During the Asian session, the gold price (XAU/USD) has renewed its daily high above $1,880.00. As market participants' risk appetite has increased, the gold price has climbed sharply higher after recovering from $1,872.00. The precious metal is anticipated to extend its uptrend over $1,880.00 with confidence, as lower US Treasury yields have mitigated the risk-averse inclination.

 

The yields on 10-year US Treasury bonds have decreased to approximately 3.61 percent. S&P500 futures have rebounded in the Asian session following a decline on Wednesday. The expectation that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will not be aggressive in the future in hiking interest rates supports the 500-US stock index.

 

In the meantime, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is battling to maintain above 103.00, despite the fact that the market has begun anticipating a Fed interest rate rise above 5%.

 

Jamie Dimon, chief executive officer of JPMorgan Chase & Co., advised against prematurely declaring victory against inflation, saying that the Federal Reserve could hike interest rates above 5% if higher prices become "sticky," as reported by Reuters. He stated that Fed Chair Jerome Powell must exceed 5% if inflation does not fall to between 3.5% and 4%.
