Amillex Daily Market Review | Rising Inflation Concerns Put Pressure on Gold

On March 6, 2026, global financial markets experienced sharp volatility as complex macroeconomic forces continued to shape investor sentiment. During Thursday’s U.S. trading session, a surge in energy costs reignited concerns about a potential rebound in inflation. U.S. crude oil prices jumped nearly 4% in a single day, climbing back to around $79.25 per barrel.

This development significantly weakened market expectations for near-term Federal Reserve rate cuts, while the U.S. Dollar Index strengthened by 0.5%. Under the pressure of multiple negative factors, spot gold faced heavy selling, dropping sharply from the intraday high of $5,194.59 to around $5,086 per ounce.

Looking ahead, the short-term narrative for the precious metals market has shifted from pure risk sentiment to a deeper tug-of-war between inflation pressure and interest rate expectations. Market attention is now firmly focused on the upcoming U.S. February employment report.
