Amillex Daily Market Commentary | Full-Scale Tariff Shock Rocks Markets, Gold Smashes Through the $5,000 Barrier

January 26, 2026, U.S. equities traded in a tight range near record highs, as investors remained on edge ahead of the Federal Reserve’s first policy meeting of the new year. Risk sentiment is being squeezed from both sides by the continued resilience of the labor market and the stickiness of inflation. Meanwhile, the U.S. Dollar Index hovered with only modest fluctuations, reflecting institutional caution as markets wait for major macro signals to crystallize. The key macro shock this round came from a sharp deterioration in geopolitical trade relations over the weekend. The U.S. government issued an exceptionally aggressive threat of 100% full tariffs on Canada via social media, directly responding to recent trade engagement between the Canadian Prime Minister and China. Driven by a surge in safe-haven demand and fluctuations in real yields, gold not only sustained last week’s powerful rally but decisively broke above the historic $5,000 per ounce milestone, surging to a peak near $5,050.
