Amillex Daily Market Commentary | Ceasefire Hopes Ease Supply Fears, Gold and Oil Move in Opposite Directions

An March 11, 2026, global commodity markets showed clear divergence during the Asian session. Concerns about a prolonged disruption to global oil supply cooled sharply, pushing U.S. crude oil down to around $76 per barrel after a period of extreme volatility. Prices are currently fluctuating around the $80 per barrel level.

This diplomatic de-escalation signal has not only pulled global inflation expectations back from extreme levels but has also reduced the pressure that high energy prices place on the global economy. Meanwhile, spot gold remains relatively stable amid mixed safe-haven demand and macroeconomic expectations, currently trading around $5,188 per ounce. Moving into the second half of the week, market attention will focus on Wednesday’s U.S. February CPI data and Friday’s PCE inflation index.
