On March 23rd, "Fed whisperer" Nick Timiraos stated that the surge in energy prices has made the Federal Reserve's already difficult transition even more challenging. This process was already quite complex. Kevin Worsh's appointment has been stalled due to a Justice Department investigation and obstruction from Tillis. Furthermore, unlike previous Fed chairs since Volcker, Worsh has pledged a complete break from his predecessor's policies, rather than continuing them. Market expectations are now split between a rate hike and a rate cut this year, which could put Worsh in a difficult position: caught between the president who nominated him and the committee he is about to lead. In 2008, after a period of aggressive interest rate cuts, oil prices suddenly surged. At the time, Worsh strongly argued that inflation risk "was the primary risk" and suggested the Fed's next move should be to raise interest rates. Trump's expectations were precisely the opposite.

On March 23rd, influenced by escalating geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East, investor risk appetite significantly cooled. Concerns over global inflation and economic growth continued to rise, putting pressure on copper prices. London copper fell 1.8% on Monday, following a 6.7% drop in the previous week, its largest weekly decline since April 2025. Prices have now reached a more than three-month low. Analysis suggests that the ongoing four-week war involving Iran has pushed up oil and gas prices, which could further drag down global economic activity and exacerbate inflationary pressures. This may prompt central banks to maintain a more aggressive stance on interest rate policy.

On March 23rd, Goldman Sachs' commodities research team predicted that high oil prices are expected to persist for an extended period. Goldman Sachs currently forecasts that oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz will remain at a low of 5% below normal levels for up to six weeks before gradually returning to normal. Furthermore, given the emphasis on risks associated with high production concentration and spare capacity, a structural increase in strategic reserves is anticipated, leading to a rise in long-term prices. Goldman Sachs now expects the average Brent crude oil price to be $85 per barrel in 2026, up from its previous forecast of $77 per barrel. (Jie Shi)

On March 23rd, the situation in the Middle East continued to escalate. U.S. President Trump issued a 48-hour ultimatum to Iran, demanding it "unconditionally open" the Strait of Hormuz, or face strikes on critical infrastructure, including power plants. Iran responded with a hardline stance, stating that if attacked, it would "completely blockade" this global energy lifeline and expand its strikes to include energy, information technology, and desalination facilities. The current conflict has entered its fourth week, with approximately one-fifth of global oil and gas transportation disrupted, significantly increasing energy supply risks. Meanwhile, both the U.S. and Iran are brewing potential peace talks, but significant differences remain. The two sides have not had direct contact, only communicating indirectly through multiple countries. Iran has proposed tough conditions, including the closure of U.S. military bases, compensation for damages, and the reshaping of rules for the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S., on the other hand, demands an end to uranium enrichment, limitations on missile development, and a cutoff of support for regional armed groups. The possibility of a ceasefire or agreement in the short term is low. Affected by the spillover of geopolitical risks, global financial markets have experienced violent fluctuations. Asian stock markets collectively declined, with the Nikkei 225 index widening its losses to 5%, the South Korean KOSPI index plunging 6%, and the Taiwan Weighted Index opening down over 3%. FTSE China A50 futures weakened. Safe-haven assets showed mixed performance, with spot gold falling below $4370 per ounce to a year-to-date low, and spot silver dropping over 4%. Concurrently, oil prices continued to rise. The foreign exchange market also came under pressure, with the Korean won falling to a new low against the U.S. dollar since 2009, indicating an accelerated flow of capital towards safe-haven and U.S. dollar assets. Market analysis suggests that as the Middle East conflict escalates and the energy shock compounds, global risk assets are facing selling pressure, liquidity is tightening, and short-term market volatility may further intensify.

On Monday, March 23rd, spot gold briefly touched $4320.30 per ounce – just under a dollar higher than its price at the end of last year, effectively wiping out nearly all of its gains for the year. Meanwhile, the conflict in the Middle East has entered its fourth week, with the United States and Iran exchanging threats of further attacks. Rising oil prices since the conflict began have increased inflation risks and reduced the likelihood of the Federal Reserve and other central banks cutting interest rates in the short term. This has been a headwind for gold, which has fallen for eight consecutive trading days and just recorded its largest weekly decline since 1983. According to Capital.com analyst Kyle Rodda, gold is "poised for a short-term bounce" due to technical factors, largely dependent on "whether Trump follows through on his threat to strike Iranian power plants."
