Amillex Daily Market Review | High Risk Premium Shocks: Energy Pipeline Concerns Trigger Massive Volatility in Gold and Oil

On April 9, 2026, global financial markets experienced another major shock after a brief expectation of easing tensions. On Wednesday, spot gold suffered a sharp sell-off after breaking through the $4,850 mark, retreating to around $4,713 in early Asian trading, and may further test the key support at $4,700 during the day. Despite previous market hopes for improvement, safe-haven sentiment reignited rapidly following disruptions in key shipping lanes and escalating local frictions. The sharp short-term pullback in gold prices primarily reflects a combination of profit-taking at high levels and long position adjustments; under extreme market volatility, technical correction pressure is being gradually released.

Macro analysis shows that sudden variables on the energy supply side have become the core factor disturbing the market. Affected by blockade risks in relevant waters and military actions, WTI crude oil rebounded strongly after hitting a low of $91, quickly returning above $96.80, with further upside potential during the day. Since the closure of major shipping lanes directly threatens global energy security, inflation expectations and risk premiums have resonated once again. The market is currently in a period of transition between policy maneuvering and sudden events. Once gold completes its bottoming-out near $4,700, if supply-side tensions are not substantially relieved, both gold and crude oil may resume a strong upward trend.
