During early Tuesday Asian trading, spot gold was trading near USD 4,327.50. Driven by renewed expectations of interest rate hikes, the U.S. Dollar Index continued to strengthen, placing significant pressure on gold bulls. Gold prices came under pressure on Monday and briefly touched the USD 4,268 area, with the potential to further test the key psychological level of USD 4,250 during the day. The market is gradually digesting the hawkish policy stance, while safe-haven premiums are experiencing a phased pullback, leaving gold vulnerable to a short-term technical correction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:18px\">In the energy market, U.S. crude oil is currently trading near USD 91.35 per barrel, with signs of cooling geopolitical risk premiums. Relevant parties have released positive statements regarding the coming weeks, while diplomatic representatives have also expressed expectations that multilateral negotiations could reach an agreement before the end of June. This easing outlook has effectively capped the potential upside for oil prices. Looking ahead, the gold market will closely monitor pressure from the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields, while the oil market remains focused on developments in geopolitical negotiations. Market bulls and bears continue to engage in intense competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Asset Market Performance and Fundamental Analysis<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>1.

Fell sharply by 200.57 points during the day, a decline of 2.64%. Driven by much stronger-than-expected nonfarm payroll data and renewed inflation expectations, concerns intensified that the Federal Reserve may resume rate hikes or maintain elevated rates for an extended period. The index experienced a significant technical pullback and broke below previous key support levels.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-7\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>Nasdaq 100 Index (NQ1)<\/strong>: Reported at 29,366.50. Declined by 88.25 points during the day, down 0.30%. Although the technology hardware sector showed resilience due to support from the AI capital expenditure cycle, market divergence remained severe, with high-valuation growth stocks experiencing increased volatility amid liquidity redistribution.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-8\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI)<\/strong>: Reported at 50,791.07. Fell by 81.01 points during the day, a decline of 0.16%. The index remained in a narrow consolidation range below the 51,000 level. Traditional value stocks and defensive sectors were weighed down by expectations of tighter macroeconomic conditions, but their relative valuation advantages helped limit losses compared to the broader market.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-9 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>Key Stocks<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-10\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>Tesla (TSLA)<\/strong>: Reported at USD 408.95.

Declined by USD 5.80, down 1.89%. The stock faced pressure near the psychological USD 300 level, primarily due to valuation compression among mega-cap technology stocks and broader liquidity outflows.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-12\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>Intel (INTC)<\/strong>: Reported at USD 110.27. Jumped USD 11.10 against the market trend, gaining 11.19%. Diverging fundamentals within the semiconductor sector, along with earnings expectations or industrial expansion prospects for specific companies, drove strong capital inflows and provided the largest support for technology stocks during the day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-13\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>Amazon (AMZN)<\/strong>: Reported at USD 245.22.

Markets are currently engaging in defensive positioning ahead of the upcoming CPI release.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-17\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>EUR\/USD (EURUSD)<\/strong>: Reported at 1.15308. Declined marginally by 0.00010 during the day, down 0.01%. Due to relatively weak growth momentum in the Eurozone economy and rising expectations of a hawkish Federal Reserve, the euro\u2019s rebound potential remained limited, continuing to trade sideways near the 1.15 level.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-18\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>USD\/JPY (USDJPY)<\/strong>: Reported at 160.155. Declined marginally by 0.023 during the day, down 0.01%. The Japanese yen approached the historic 160 level. Despite potential risks of verbal or actual intervention, the wide U.S.-Japan interest rate differential and active carry trades continue to exert depreciation pressure on the yen.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-19 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>3.
