As the conflict between the U.S. and Iran escalates, why is gold experiencing an unusual decline? Deutsche Bank's latest research report breaks the illusion that "crises must lead to price increases": the safe-haven premium of gold is highly uncertain and lagging. The real hard logic for going long on gold currently lies in its price resilience demonstrated under a strong dollar trend, reflecting that there is demand support for gold independent of the dollar

- On March 3, the US-Iran conflict escalated, leading to increased market risk aversion, a drop in stock prices, and a 4.9% rise in oil prices, while gold showed resilience against the dollar.  
- Deutsche Bank's report states that gold's response to geopolitical crises typically requires 1 to 2 weeks to manifest and highlights high variability across individual events.  
- Investors should focus on structural signals, recognizing that while gold is a useful hedge, its performance during crises is unpredictable and requires careful position management.

U.S. stock index futures fell as investors reacted to escalating U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, raising concerns over inflation due to potential energy price surges. Oil prices jumped 2.2%, and the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield reached its highest in over a week. The conflict's impact on the economy has led to expectations that the Federal Reserve may not cut interest rates soon. Attention is now on upcoming U.S. economic data, including retail sales and employment figures, as markets remain cautious amid geopolitical tensions.

As tensions between the U.S. and Iran escalate, gold and silver prices have risen due to safe-haven buying. U.S. President Trump has stated that military operations against Iran will continue, aiming to eliminate its nuclear capabilities. Analysts predict a short-term increase in gold prices by 5% to 10% due to the geopolitical risk, but caution that such surges may not be sustainable. JPMorgan remains optimistic about long-term gold prices, forecasting them to reach $6,300 per ounce by the end of 2026.

- On March 3, during the Asian trading session, spot gold (XAUUSD) and silver (XAGUSD) experienced slight increases.  
- This rebound is primarily attributed to the escalating airstrikes by the U.S. and Israel against Iran, raising geopolitical tensions and global economic uncertainties, prompting safe-haven investments in precious metals.  
- Despite potential volatility in the short term, JPMorgan maintains a bullish long-term outlook for gold, predicting prices could reach $6,300 per ounce by the end of 2026.

Oil prices spike and stock futures tumble in first trading since weekend attacks on Iran

The Indian rupee is projected to fall past 91 per dollar due to escalating tensions in the Middle East following U.S. and Israeli airstrikes on Iran. The rupee is expected to open between 91.28-91.32, having settled at 90.9750. The conflict has led to a surge in oil prices and a shift towards safe-haven assets like gold. Analysts warn that sustained oil price increases could further weaken currencies linked to oil imports, including the INR. Asian currencies fell, and the Reserve Bank of India may intervene to stabilize the rupee.

Rupee to fall past 91 as Iran war puts oil on the boil, saps risk appetite

In the recent geopolitical tension, gold, oil, and military stocks are regarded as three essential assets. Despite market volatility, experts advise investors who do not hold these assets not to rush into buying, especially gold, as it performs well when risks increase. Oil prices may rise due to supply disruption risks, and military stocks benefit from countries increasing their defense budgets. Investors should operate cautiously and gradually accumulate assets to diversify risks

Three Essential Assets in Turbulent Times | Tang Niu

Investors are increasingly concerned about the Middle East conflict, particularly following the U.S.-Israel strikes that killed Iranian Supreme Leader Khamenei. This has raised fears of prolonged regional instability, impacting oil prices and global inflation. Analysts warn of complacency in markets, suggesting that the fallout could be more severe than previously anticipated. While Brent crude prices have risen, some experts recommend caution in buying equities, predicting volatility ahead. The potential for oil prices to spike and affect inflation remains a key concern, with varying opinions on the extent of the conflict's impact on trade and markets.
