Gold prices maintain their upward trend.

On the morning of May 26th, gold prices continued their recovery in Asian markets amidst recent progress in negotiations between the US and Iran aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz. The prospect of restoring oil flows through this shipping route has significantly eased concerns about global inflation.

As of 7:23 AM Singapore time on May 26th (approximately 6:23 AM Vietnam time on May 26th), the spot gold price edged up slightly by 0.1% to $4,574.88 per ounce. In the previous session, the price of the precious metal had increased by 1.4% to $4,575 per ounce.

The main impetus for the market came from a statement by US President Donald Trump on May 25th. He asserted that negotiations with Iran on a temporary agreement, aimed at extending the ceasefire and easing travel restrictions through the vital Strait of Hormuz, were "going very well."

Nevertheless, investors remain cautious, monitoring the risks of conflict that could disrupt the negotiation process. Regional media reported numerous large explosions along the transit route of ships through the Strait of Hormuz. At the same time, the situation in the Middle East remains complex, with Iran insisting on an end to the fighting in Lebanon as part of a peace agreement. Israel has declared it will intensify airstrikes against Hezbollah forces even as US-Iran negotiations are underway.

Looking back at market developments, since the conflict erupted in late February 2026, the price of gold has fallen by approximately 13%. This is due to the war driving up energy prices, fueling inflation concerns, and leading investors to bet on the possibility of central banks continuing to raise interest rates. High interest rates and borrowing costs typically put significant pressure on gold, an asset that does not yield returns.

In other precious metals markets, spot silver prices rose 0.2% to $78.19 per ounce, while platinum and palladium prices were nearly unchanged. The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index, which measures the strength of the greenback, remained stable after falling 0.3% in the previous session.
