Amillex Daily Market Commentary | Resurgent Fed Rate Hike Expectations Weigh on Gold; Supply and Demand Outlook Adjustments Drag Down Oil Prices

On June 24, 2026, global commodity markets experienced a clear divergence driven by the interplay of macroeconomic policies and market sentiment. Against the backdrop of the Federal Reserve’s recent “higher for longer” tightening signals and rising market expectations for interest rate hikes, the US Dollar Index climbed strongly to a more than one-year high. This significantly suppressed the momentum of spot gold bulls, causing gold prices to fluctuate at low levels around the $4,100/oz mark during the early Asian session. At the same time, due to a marginal improvement in external uncertainty expectations, previously accumulated market correction pressure was heavily released, leading to a high-level pullback in major commodity prices.

The cooling of the external environment exerted more direct downward pressure on the energy market. Driven by expectations of supply chain recovery and the anticipation that major transportation channels will remain smooth, US crude oil vibrated lower to around $72.85/barrel, hitting a near four-month low. In the short term, due to the dual impact of profit-taking by institutional speculative long positions and macroeconomic liquidity tightening, the rapid upward pace of core assets such as gold and crude oil has slowed down. Moving forward, investors need to closely monitor the actual recovery progress of global shipping logistics as well as the upcoming US inflation and employment data to gauge the sustainability of the US Dollar Index at its highs and signals of a bottoming-out release for commodities.

3. 貴金屬和大宗商品

貴金屬

現貨黃金（XAUUSD）： Reported at approximately $4,110.80/oz. Edged up by $0.76 or 0.02% within the day. Geopolitical uncertainties and the long-term de-dollarization reserve demands from global central banks provided gold prices with strong resilience against declines at historical highs above $4,100.

以太坊（ETHUSD）： Reported at $1,668.16. Climbed by 3.12 points or 0.19% within the day. ETH’s performance was largely in sync with the broader market; in the short term, its on-chain activity dividend as a digital asset has not been fully released, and capital preferred traditional hard currencies or large-cap growth stocks.
