黃金一週內下跌10%,華爾街股市暴跌
本週,金價在每盎司 5000 美元的支撐位附近苦苦支撐了一段時間,但一系列悲觀的央行聲明和令人沮喪的伊朗戰爭前景最終對黃金造成了沉重打擊,塵埃落定後,金價回落了超過 10%。
現貨黃金本週開盤價為每盎司5,023.53美元,在接下來的近三天裡,金價走勢平穩。從週日晚間、週一到週二(金價一度觸及略高於5040美元的周內高點),再到週三的亞洲交易時段和歐洲交易時段的大部分時間裡,金價都在5040美元至4975美元之間波動,其中大部分時間都在30美元的區間內震盪。
然而,週三早上6點30分,交易員們必須保持警惕。現貨黃金跌破4,970美元的關鍵支撐位,金價在短短兩個多小時內暴跌120美元,直到觸及每盎司4,860美元才獲得支撐。隨後,市場消化了早間超出預期的PPI數據,並等待下午2點的重頭戲:聯準會的利率決議和最新的經濟預測。
利率維持不變本身並不令人意外,黃金價格也未受其影響,但聯準會主席鮑威爾的記者會卻將金價推低至股市收盤時每盎司4800美元附近。隨後,在亞洲交易時段,金價再次暴跌,創下2月初崩盤以來的最大跌幅。週四凌晨2點,金價為每盎司4,833美元,而北美股市開盤前半小時,金價則跌至每盎司4,538美元。
半小時後,黃金價格強勁反彈至每盎司 4,630 美元,並在 4,575 美元附近建立短期支撐後,週四黃金價格迎來本周唯一一次上漲趨勢,並在東部時間晚上 11:15 達到每盎司 4,733 美元的高點。
但第二次衝擊 4730 美元失敗後,黃金又回吐了本週跌幅的一半,從凌晨 4 點 15 分的 4722 美元一路下跌,到下午 3 點跌破 4500 美元,在此過程中創下 4477.54 美元的周內低點
美元可望上漲
週一,由於中東危機中報復性威脅升級,美元有望反彈,這抑制了風險情緒,並提振了對避險資產的需求。
週五,美元收盤走低,錄得自伊朗戰爭爆發以來的首次週線下跌,原因是油價飆升推高通膨,促使各國央行轉向鷹派立場。澳元早盤走低,此前股市開盤走低。
週末期間,人們對海灣地區停止敵對行動的希望變得渺茫,美國總統唐納德·川普威脅要打擊伊朗的電網,而德黑蘭則誓言要對鄰國的能源和水利系統進行反擊。
澳洲國民銀行貨幣策略師羅德里戈·卡特里爾在播客節目中表示:“市場正在接受這樣一種觀點:那些從能源供應中獲得積極衝擊的國家和經濟體,其表現可能會優於那些遭受負面供應衝擊的國家和經濟體。”
“所以你會看到歐元和日元表現不佳。而且,如果這場衝突持續時間過長,你可能會認為這些貨幣受到的衝擊會更大。”
美元指數(衡量美元兌一籃子貨幣的匯率)上漲0.03%,至99.53。歐元兌美元下跌0.06%,至1.1563美元。
日圓兌美元上漲0.06%,至159.11日圓;英鎊兌美元下跌0.06%,至1.3331美元。
川普週六晚間再次向伊朗發出威脅,而就在不到一天前,他還暗示美國可能考慮結束與伊朗的衝突。伊朗則誓言將對鄰國的基礎設施進行報復性打擊,並表示霍爾木茲海峽的石油運輸航道將繼續關閉。
該地區民用基礎設施可能遭受針鋒相對的打擊,這威脅到數百萬依賴海水淡化廠獲取飲用水的人們的生計。週日凌晨,以色列各地響起空襲警報,警告伊朗可能發射飛彈。
在2月底美以對伊朗爆發戰爭之前,投資人已預期聯準會今年會降息兩次。但現在他們普遍認為降息一次的可能性不大,其他主要央行的立場也變得更加鷹派。
聯準會上周如預期維持利率不變,但主席鮑威爾表示,現在判斷戰爭對經濟的影響範圍和持續時間還為時過早。
Gold’s bull run is set to continue in 2026, and crypto’s weakness could boost silver higher
While Bitcoin, AI and the tech sector are likely to take a step back in 2026, gold’s bull run still has legs – and crypto’s weakness could add to silver’s strength, according to Charlie Morris, CIO and founder of ByteTree.
ByteTree created the BOLD Index, which blends Bitcoin and gold on a risk-weighted basis, and the 21Shares BOLD ETP (BOLD) which tracks the index is listed across Europe. The theory behind the BOLD index is that gold and Bitcoin are uncorrelated alternative assets, so balancing between them is very advantageous.
Morris is very bullish on both Bitcoin and gold over the long term. Five years ago – well before the current bull market had even begun – he predicted that the yellow metal would hit $7,000 per ounce by 2030. This was an extreme outlier at the time, but with gold prices gaining around $2,500 in the five years since, it looks less outlandish by the day.
“Generally speaking, I don't make projections, but I did in 2020 make that projection,” Morris told Kitco News. “It's not looking so stupid now.”
“It's all worked for the wrong reasons, which is hilarious,” he said. “And maybe the [original] reasons come true later, but my simple thesis was that long-term expectations for inflation rose in the Western world, from 2% to about 4%, and the money printing would see lasting inflation.”
Morris said markets have since seen monetary inflation, but not yet sustained consumer inflation. Still, he believes this will materialize eventually. “It just seems so inevitable with these persistent deficits that at some point it will come through,” he said. “I just don't see how you can come into this world full of money and for it not to feed through eventually, particularly with policymakers so focused these days on the real economy. As money finds its way into the real economy, then that's got to be inflationary sooner or later.”
