Amillex Daily FX Review | Geopolitical Tensions Surge; Oil Rally Sparks Inflation Fears, Weighing on Gold

July 24, 2026 — In Friday’s early Asian session, spot gold traded near $4,048.76/oz following a notable decline of nearly 2% on Thursday. The key driver behind this market turbulence was a sharp escalation in regional tensions, with security threats to critical maritime straits and rumors of major actions jolting energy markets. Brent crude surged over 6% on Thursday, topping $100/bbl. This surge in oil prices quickly raised global inflation expectations, forcing markets to reassess central bank policy paths. Rising rate-hike expectations heavily pressured non-yielding gold.

Looking ahead, market sentiment is caught between safe-haven demand and hawkish rate-hike expectations driven by inflation. High oil prices raise second-round inflation risks that may keep policymakers hawkish, pressuring gold in the short term. However, the evolving crisis provides strong underlying safe-haven support. Should tensions escalate further, gold retains momentum for a sudden rebound. Investors should closely monitor energy market dynamics and upcoming macro inflation data.
