Amillex Daily Market Commentary | Gold Hits 5,600 in Historic Run While Markets Lock in June Rate Cut

January 29, 2026 — Global financial markets witnessed a historic bout of extreme volatility early today. Spot gold entered full-blown mode, ripping through multiple psychological levels like a runaway train and surging to an intraday high of USD 5,600 per ounce, marking a new all-time extreme in history. Although prices later pulled back on profit-taking and are now repeatedly testing the USD 5,500 handle, the scale and intensity of safe-haven demand—driven by extreme geopolitical uncertaint has reached near-euphoric levels. On the macro front, the Federal Reserve concluded its first policy meeting of the year in the early hours of today, opting to keep the benchmark interest rate unchanged at 3.5%–3.75%, in line with expectations. While the Fed acknowledged a clear improvement in growth prospects and easing risks to inflation and employment, policymakers stressed that inflation remains elevated. Markets reacted calmly, viewing the statement as broadly unchanged in tone. Traders continue to firmly price in June as the most likely window for the first rate cut in the upcoming easing cycle.

S&P 500 (SPX): 6,970 (intraday high: 7,012). The S&P briefly crossed the 7,000 milestone for the first time intraday, but the move resembled a “stress test” rather than a breakout.
