Amillex Daily Market Review | Dollar Strength Triggers Long Liquidation — Can Geopolitical Risks Support Gold?

March 4, 2026 — Global financial markets were hit by sharp volatility as multiple macro forces collided. On Tuesday, spot gold came under heavy selling pressure, dropping more than 4% intraday to trade near $5,123 per ounce. Expectations for the Federal Reserve’s first rate cut have now been pushed back from July to September. As the rate-cut outlook softens, investors have shifted toward a “cash is king” stance amid extreme volatility, temporarily weakening gold’s short-term appeal. Although prolonged tensions in the Middle East continue to raise longer-term inflation concerns, tighter liquidity conditions have made it difficult for gold to sustain its previous one-way rally. Gold futures closed down 3.5%, reflecting defensive repositioning at elevated levels.
