🟡 War Rages On, Gold Hits a One-Year Low: Why Is Safe-Haven Demand Failing? | November 2, 2026 (Monday)
Front-month gold futures fell 3.3% on Friday to ~$3,885, the lowest close in over a year.
📌 Why isn't safe-haven demand helping?
🔻 Fed held rates, but markets still price in a possible December hike
🔻 Higher rate expectations raise the opportunity cost of holding gold
🔻 Geopolitical risk lifts oil, reinforcing tightening expectations
🌍 Still a fluid situation:
US-Iran indirect talks continue, with Iran saying Hormuz could reopen within two days;
but Tehran warns of broader strikes if attacked again, and energy supply risks persist.
