■ Future Variables: Middle East Risk · Oil Prices · U.S. Interest Rates Geopolitical risks are expected to act as key market variables for the time being. U.S. President Donald Trump mentioned the possibility of additional military action against Iran on the 23rd (local time), stating that he is considering an attack 'greater than any seen before.' The United States has been conducting continuous airstrikes against Iran for 12 days, raising concerns that heightened tensions in the Middle East could stimulate international oil prices.

The market views oil prices, U.S. interest rate trends, and changes in the Middle East situation as key factors that will determine future gold price movements and volatility in global financial markets.
