Amillex Daily Market Commentary | Gold Volatility Tests $4,600 as Inflation Expectations Ease but Tug-of-War Intensifies

March 26, 2026 — Global gold markets saw another round of sharp volatility on Wednesday (March 25). Spot gold surged nearly 3% intraday, briefly testing the key $4,600 level before pulling back under profit-taking pressure, closing at $4,506.49.

The core driver behind this move lies in the market’s complex balancing act between macro risks and inflation expectations. On one hand, ongoing global uncertainty continues to inject safe-haven demand into gold. On the other, signals from major oil-producing nations have helped cap oil price gains, easing concerns over a second wave of inflation and indirectly tempering expectations for more aggressive rate hikes.
