Gold prices face pressure amid Middle East conflict and Fed tightening, delaying a rally back to $5,000 an ounce.

Gold prices surged early in 2026 due to strong central bank demand but have since fallen as the ongoing Middle East conflict diverts focus to energy security. U.S. Bank strategist Rob Haworth says gold needs the Iran war to end and global energy markets to stabilize before central banks resume significant gold buying. Additionally, rising bond yields, a strong U.S. dollar, and cautious Fed rate hikes limit gold's appeal. While gold remains a strategic reserve asset long-term, near-term catalysts for a price rally are lacking as economic and geopolitical uncertainties persist.

The outlook for gold amid geopolitical tensions is provided here with Pluang's market data for context. For readers following US stocks on Pluang, 73 rose and 76 fell out of 150 priced stocks. Notable movers include Opendoor Technologies Inc at USD 1.90 with a 1-day change of -4.28% and Pluang order activity of 17% Sell / 83% Buy, Micron Technology, Inc. at USD 912.47 up 3.98% with 54% Sell / 46% Buy, and Vale SA at USD 11.91 down 3.95% with 6% Sell / 94% Buy.
