Investment Rating - Industry Rating: Outperform the Market (maintained rating) [4] Core Viewpoints - The current gold-oil price ratio is at a historically high level, second only to the negative pricing phase during the pandemic in 2020. The pricing factors differ, with crude oil being fundamentally priced and gold being macroeconomically priced [10][12]. - Oil prices have closely followed the fundamentals, slightly leading the US 10-year Treasury yield. Currently, OECD crude oil inventories are at a moderately low level, but oil prices have started to decline due to market expectations of a continued loose supply in 2026, which may exacerbate inventory accumulation [2][12]. - Gold prices are primarily driven by macroeconomic factors. Over the past decade, gold prices have shown a nearly negative correlation with the US 10-year Treasury yield. As real interest rates decline, the attractiveness of gold increases. The market anticipates a 25 basis point rate cut starting in September 2025, with expectations of a decline in the US 10-year Treasury yield [3][17]. - The current demand for gold is also linked to central bank purchases in emerging markets, which have increased significantly since the onset of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Emerging market central banks hold a lower proportion of gold compared to developed market central banks, making this demand a significant factor in driving gold prices [18]. Summary by Sections 1.

Pricing Mechanisms - Crude oil is fundamentally priced, while gold is macroeconomically priced [16]. - Gold prices have shown a nearly negative correlation with the US 10-year Treasury yield, with real interest rates impacting gold's attractiveness [3][17]. - The anticipated rate cut in the US and the expected decline in the US 10-year Treasury yield are significant for gold pricing [17]. 3. Central Bank Demand - Increased purchases of gold by emerging market central banks since the Russia-Ukraine conflict have contributed to rising gold prices [18].
