The Future of Commodities and Gold Amid the Flames of War

Amid escalating geopolitical crises and shifts in global markets, commodities are entering a critical phase of investment reassessment, as military violence in the Middle East intersects with macroeconomic dynamics and global interest rates. With the ongoing open war between Israel and Iran, with its costly repercussions for both sides, attention is turning to the performance of gold, oil, and silver as strategic indicators of the state of the global market.

In this context, Ole Hansen, Head of Commodity Strategy at Saxo Bank, provided an in-depth reading of the future of the markets during a special interview on "Business with Lobna" on Sky News Arabia, revealing well-considered forecasts that contradict some traditional investment trends.

Hansen addressed the determinants of supply and demand, geopolitical fluctuations, and the behavior of central banks, especially in light of growing fears of a US economic slowdown and anticipated changes in monetary policy.
