美伊冲突推高油价,金价创六周最大单周跌幅
美国与伊朗军事冲突升级导致油价周内飙升约12%,通胀预期升温强化了美联储加息理由,黄金本周累计下跌逾3%,创六月初以来最大跌幅。
全球黄金市场本周录得六周来最大单周跌幅,现货金价周五交投于每盎司3988美元附近,全周跌幅约3.2%至3.4%。尽管美国6月消费者物价指数(CPI)和生产者物价指数(PPI)均低于预期,但金价未能获得支撑,反而在油价飙升的背景下持续承压。纽约商品交易所8月黄金期货价格亦稳定在3992美元左右,盘中一度触及7月1日以来最低水平。
油价急涨是压制金价的核心传导因素。本周美伊之间爆发新一轮高强度相互打击,导致去年达成的停火协议严重瓦解。据路透社报道,伊朗方面要求也门胡塞武装准备关闭红海出口通道,叠加霍尔木兹海峡石油流量受限的担忧,国际油价周内跳涨约12%。能源成本上升重新点燃了市场对通胀顽固的忧虑,进而强化了利率将在更长时间内维持高位的预期。
美联储政策圈层的表态进一步打压了黄金。达拉斯联储主席洛根公开呼吁加息,成为美联储主席沃什新任期内首位明确主张收紧政策的同僚;副主席杰斐逊亦表示,若短期内通胀未见改善,将对加息持开放态度。芝加哥商品交易所“美联储观察”工具显示,交易员目前预计12月加息概率约为73%。市场分析人士指出,在无风险收益率攀升的环境下,不生息的黄金吸引力显著下降,地缘政治风险带来的避险需求被利率预期所抵消。
对中国及其他亚洲经济体而言,油价持续高企可能推高进口成本,加大输入性通胀压力,并制约货币政策宽松空间。同时,美元走强预期也可能对区域货币和资本流动产生外溢效应。后续需密切关注美伊冲突是否导致霍尔木兹海峡或红海航运实质性中断,以及美联储在7月会议前的进一步政策信号。
