Gold and silver prices fell after the North American cash-market close, pressured by rising oil prices and stronger U.S. Treasury yields that heightened concerns over Federal Reserve interest rate hikes. Despite renewed U.S.-Iran tensions causing some safe-haven demand, traders focused more on inflation and Fed tightening risks, leading to gold trading near $4,015.60 an ounce (down 1.79%) and silver near $58.18 (down 1.48%). U.S. equities recovered with the Nasdaq up 2.1% and the Dow closing at a record above 52,000, supported by expectations of resumed U.S.-Iran talks and continued, though reduced, shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. The situation in the Strait is seen as impaired transit rather than closure, with oil prices rising (WTI $70.75, Brent $73.15), reinforcing inflation concerns and Fed rate risks rather than boosting precious metals as safe havens. The market will watch for gold to test resistance above $4,100 and silver above $59.58, while downside risks remain if prices fall below key support levels.
