近期金融市场呈现复杂态势，美联储货币政策预期与地缘政治风险交织影响下，黄金价格经历了显著波动。市场对美联储降息时点的预期升温，叠加全球贸 易环境的不确定性，为贵金属市场带来了新的支撑因素。当前投资者密切关注美国经济数据表现，特别是就业市场指标对货币政策路径的指引作用。 美联储政策预期推动金价反弹动力 美元指数在2025年上半年累计下跌10.8%，创下1973年以来同期最差表现。这一疲软态势与特朗普贸易政策的不确定性密切相关，同时总统对美联储降息的 持续施压也给美元造成下行压力。随着美元走软，黄金重新回升至3300美元上方，显示出贵金属对货币政策预期变化的敏感性。 市场当前预期美国下半年将实施三次降息，这种预期为黄金等非生息资产提供了重要支撑。美联储官员近期表态显示，如果经济数据符合预期且通胀继续向 2%目标回落，逐步转向更为中性的政策立场可能是合适的。投资者特别关注即将公布的美国就业数据，若数据走弱将进一步提升7月降息概率，金价或迎来 补涨机会。 当前市场正处于期待关税冲突降温的阶段，中东局势也步入相对缓和期。然而，7月关税暂缓截止期临近，市场需要警惕相关炒作再度升温的可能性。美债 信用危机背景下的去美元化趋 ...
