An emerging macro driver is whether the geopolitically motivated spike in oil prices will drive global inflation and prompt central banks to return to tightening mode. In essence, the Fed\u2019s easing expectations that drove metal prices northwards in late 2025 are now at risk of being upended.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gold price:<\/strong> As of writing on 9 March, the gold price has pulled back slightly from above $5100 and now trades around $5082. This is due to overnight strength in the US Dollar, as safe-haven demand followed the sharp spike in oil prices.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Silver price:<\/strong> A heavy drawdown in the last week of February sent silver prices crashing from record highs. A failed attempt to reclaim those highs resulted in last week\u2019s further decline to 84.47. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1005\" height=\"639\" src=\"https:\/\/news.investingcube.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/XAGUSD_2026-03-09_16-58-51.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-219621\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.investingcube.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/XAGUSD_2026-03-09_16-58-51.png 1005w, https:\/\/news.investingcube.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/XAGUSD_2026-03-09_16-58-51-300x191.png 300w, https:\/\/news.investingcube.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/XAGUSD_2026-03-09_16-58-51-770x490.png 770w, https:\/\/news.investingcube.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/XAGUSD_2026-03-09_16-58-51-293x186.png 293w, https:\/\/news.investingcube.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/XAGUSD_2026-03-09_16-58-51-390x248.png 390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1005px) 100vw, 1005px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Figure 2: Silver price (daily chart) showing key price levels (snapshot taken on 9 March 2026)<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gold\/Silver Price Forecasts: Macro Drivers for the Moment<\/h2>\n<p><strong>1. Oil Shock and Rise in Inflation Expectations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Oil shock has flipped the safe-haven logic that traditionally worked for metals on its head. Brent crude surged overnight by 25%, hitting as high as $119.50 at the height of the move. Supply concerns are now driving the spike, as the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, trapping more than 3,000 ships. The spike in oil prices has already led to higher prices for derivative fuels and has lifted inflation expectations. This has put pressure on gold prices, as higher inflation expectations suggest central banks (including the Fed) may not cut interest rates anytime soon. Reduced Fed easing expectations are leading US bond yields higher, driving demand for the US Dollar.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Reduced Fed easing expectations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rising bond yields have led to new USD demand, which is now a developing headwind for gold and silver prices. Persistently high oil prices mean central banks will keep policy tighter for longer, which will withdraw demand for non-yielding metals.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gold\/Silver Price Forecasts: What to Watch<\/h2>\n<p>Keep a note on the following to keep tabs on the directional sentiment for the week.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Oil prices pathway: critical for inflation expectations<\/li>\n<li>USD yields: higher bond yields will drive up the USD, which will push gold\/silver prices lower.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"block-da-1 block-da block-da-post_middle_content da-style-1 clearfix\">\n<div class=\"pb-view-item\" data-pid=\"218238\" data-monitor=\"init\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/lp.atcapital.group\/hi\/cashback-50-promotion\/?utm_source=investingcube&#038;utm_medium=mediabuy&#038;utm_campaign=IN_ATFX_media-buy_investingcube_cashback_202601\" class=\"pb-view-anchor\" data-pid=\"218238\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/news.investingcube.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/parteners-banner\/images\/ATFX_India_web_ads_20260105_336x280_c.jpg\" alt=\"ATFX Cashback 336\u00d7280\" class=\"pb-view-graphic\" width=\"336\" height=\"280\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/news.investingcube.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/parteners-banner\/images\/ATFX_India_web_ads_20260105_336x280_c.jpg\" alt=\"ATFX Cashback 336\u00d7280\" class=\"pb-view-graphic\" width=\"336\" height=\"280\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/noscript><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weekly Gold\/Silver Price Forecast Scenarios<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Base case<\/strong>: the base case scenario favors gold and silver prices remaining range-bound, albeit with violent swings. This is due to the struggle between safe-haven demand on one hand, and pressure from rising USD yields on the other. Silver prices will be more volatile, with a risk of overshoots in either direction, leading to choppy conditions. No clean trend is expected this week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bull case:<\/strong> the bull case will play out if oil prices retreat and stabilize, even amid heightened geopolitical risks. This scenario will also play out if the demand for the USD drops and yields cool, restoring classical metal safe-haven demand and driving gold and silver higher.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bear case:<\/strong> the bear case will play out if oil prices keep rising, stoking further inflation fears. A rise in US bond yields is the natural consequence of a fading of expectations of central bank easing.<\/p>\n<p>In summary, gold and silver prices are not expected to follow the classical safe-haven demand track. Rather, the key macro driver will be USD demand and UST yields, within the context of the geopolitical imbroglio.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gold\/Silver Prices: Technical Outlook<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Gold:<\/strong> The 4-hr chart of gold shows choppy price action, with the asset lacking a clear near-term direction.
