Market plunges: Precious metals traded weakly in the morning, with Shanghai silver falling over 5%, Shanghai gold over 3%, and platinum and palladium over 4%, indicating a concentrated sell-off by long positions accumulated at previous highs. 2. Fed shows hawkish stance: The Feds June decision kept interest rates unchanged, but new Chairman Warsh removed forward guidance indicating a tendency to cut rates in his debut meeting. Furthermore, the dot plot showed that half of the officials expect at least one rate hike this year, leading to an earlier-than-expected rate hike and a stronger dollar and US Treasury yields. 3. Geopolitical negotiations take a dramatic turn: After the US and Iran signed a memorandum of understanding, the first round of formal negotiations suddenly changed. Due to Israels continued attacks on Lebanon and threatening remarks from Trump, the Iranian delegation walked out of the meeting and announced the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, causing risk aversion and liquidity concerns to severely impact the market. 4. Fund Holdings Trends: Investment demand showed mixed performance. Holdings in the worlds largest gold ETF (SPDR) increased slightly to 1020.5 tons weekly, while holdings in the worlds largest silver ETF (iShares) decreased by 22.51 tons weekly, indicating a roughly equal increase and decrease in speculative funds. 5. Everbright Futures View: Current gold prices have largely priced in hawkish expectations, and marginal negative momentum is weakening. With falling oil prices, if inflation expectations remain stagnant, it may drive a short-term market correction due to easing concerns about tightening, allowing gold to maintain its bottom-range consolidation. 6. Nanhua Futures View: With geopolitical uncertainties in the Middle East, strong AI stocks, and rising expectations of interest rate hikes, precious metals are in a short-term weak position. However, in the medium to long term, the Peoples Bank of my country maintains its strategy of buying gold on dips, and the medium-term support logic for central bank gold purchases has not weakened significantly. 7. Shanghai Zhongqi Futures View: The pullback in gold prices is a result of the Federal Reserves policy shift towards hawkishness, changes in communication style, and a convergence of macroeconomic data. With interest rate hike expectations fully priced into the market, short-term adjustment pressures are expected. However, easing tensions in the Middle East are conducive to stabilizing inflation expectations, and precious metals will continue to exhibit two-way volatility.
