Gold prices dropped about 1.5% toward $4500 as oil prices jumped 4% following renewed US-Iran strikes and ongoing tense negotiations. The conflict in the Middle East, including Israel's intensified strikes on Hezbollah, complicates a potential US-Iran deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and lift naval blockades. A stronger US dollar and concerns over prolonged talks have reduced gold's safe-haven appeal. Silver and platinum also declined, pressured by risk aversion and fears that high oil prices could slow economic growth and reduce demand for precious metals. Gold faces resistance near $4550, with support around $4450, while silver and platinum remain range-bound amid market uncertainty.
