Gaza Deal: New Opportunities from the Ceasefire
After the ceasefire between Israel and Iran took effect, the US quickly took advantage of the opportunity to restart negotiations in Gaza, with the goal of ending the nearly two-year conflict.
President Trump said that “negotiations are making significant progress” and that he expected “good news to come soon.” However, Israel has postponed sending a delegation due to disagreements over the terms of a long-term ceasefire with Hamas. Meanwhile, intermediaries such as Egypt and Qatar are still actively connecting and promoting dialogue between the two sides.

Gold price fluctuates – USD weakens – Investors need to be alert
Spot gold prices are currently around 3,339 USD/oz, influenced by many conflicting factors:
- Shelter demand drops due to the mild climate in the Middle East.
- Weakening US dollar, supporting gold prices to maintain the 3,300 zone.
- The market is waiting for PCE data – the Fed's preferred inflation indicator, due out later this week.
Short-term investment strategy suggestions
In the context of policy turbulence, investors may consider:
🔹 Yellow: Watch for buying around the $3,300/oz support zone if geopolitical risk signals or weak US economic data appear.
🔹 Stock: Prioritize defensive groups such as consumer and healthcare. Avoid banking and financial stocks if the market starts to adjust interest rate expectations strongly.
🔹 Foreign exchange: USD is losing momentum, investors can watch the pair EUR/USD or USD/CNY to open short positions when there is trend confirmation.
