March 2, 2026 — Global financial markets were hit by a sharp shock during the Asian session, as a sudden escalation in Middle East tensions fully ignited risk-off sentiment. Over the weekend, reports of large-scale U.S.–Israeli strikes on Iran — including the deaths of several senior officials, among them Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei — sent shockwaves through markets.
Spot gold opened with a sharp upside gap and surged as much as 1.5% intraday to USD 5,373.49/oz, marking a near one-month high. The rapid spillover of geopolitical risk, combined with a steady recovery in physical gold demand, pushed bullish sentiment close to overdrive.
