Gold’s recent weakness confused many traders because geopolitical fear normally pushes safe-haven demand higher.

But this cycle is different.

Rising oil prices and stronger Treasury yields are increasing expectations that the Fed could stay restrictive for longer, which pressures non-yielding assets like gold.

Macro markets are becoming increasingly interconnected:

oil → inflation → Fed → yields → gold → crypto.

That chain matters more than headlines alone now.
