[Analyst: Commodity Markets Will Experience Instinctive Surge Due to Unexpected Scale and Scope of Conflict] Reported by Golden Finance, Marex analyst Edward Meir stated that most commodity markets (including gold and oil) are expected to experience an instinctive surge. This is a natural reaction to the outbreak of hostilities, as the scale and scope of this conflict are quite unexpected. Gold may open with an increase of approximately $200 per ounce but could subsequently retreat later in the day. The market tends to remain relatively calm in the face of military conflict; ultimately, investors are primarily concerned about whether oil supply will be disrupted. Therefore, once the initial surge subsides, the early gains often fade away.
