On July 10th, Bernstein raised its 2026 gold price forecast, projecting a second-half price target of $4,375 per ounce and a full-year target of $4,533. The firm believes that continued central bank gold purchases and the high probability that the Federal Reserve will not raise interest rates in the next 12 months will be the main factors supporting gold prices. Bernstein expects the Fed to raise rates only one or two times at most, limiting outflows from gold ETFs. Bernstein noted that rising real interest rates in the second quarter of 2026 caused gold prices to fall from $4,650 per ounce to around $4,000, but with stabilizing interest rate expectations, gold still has room to rise. The firm also warned that if inflation continues to exceed expectations, prompting the Fed to take more aggressive interest rate hikes, this will be the main risk to rising gold prices.According to NewsNation: US officials say technical negotiations with Iran are ongoing and the US remains committed to finding a solution.

WTI price falls below the $76 mark amid altering financial dynamics and global growth concerns

The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) price is unchanged on Tuesday amid a weaker US Dollar and muted risk sentiment. WTI fell to a low of $72.31 on Monday as a result of a strong risk-off environment sparked by the repercussions from Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Banks. Since then, the WTI price has risen significantly as a result of the Federal Reserve's plan to intervene. After reaching a peak of approximately $76 on Monday, the WTI price retreated as the dynamics of the US Dollar shifted.

 

The financial system is being harmed by rising borrowing costs around the world and growth concerns are being raised. The WTI price is in a corrective decline as the narrative of China's reopening does not appear optimistic, as the country has lowered its growth forecast to 5.0%.

 

The SVB debacle exacerbates global growth concerns, as it is interpreted as the first of many financial system dings. Due to rising financing costs, businesses are struggling to make their repayments, which will eventually result in a decline in demand.

 

Despite tightened production and numerous voluntary cuts from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), the WTI price is struggling to surpass $80.

 

Oil prices are influenced by a number of variables, including the US dollar, inflation, OPEC, and global growth concerns. Considering the aforementioned factors, it is difficult to rationalize the directional nature of oil prices, but it appears that the oil market is primarily driven by development concerns.

 

Since these nations are struggling to maintain oil prices above the desired $80 mark, it will also be crucial to monitor the OPEC position on reduced oil prices.
