    📝 Review:Overnight, short-term US Treasury yields rose again, with the market repricing the possibility of a delayed rate cut by the Federal Reserve. Weak economic data from overseas economies contrasted sharply with the resilience of the US economy, leading to a return of funds to dollar assets. Technically, the price has stabilized above the short-term moving average cluster, confirming a pullback. The 4-hour MACD remains above the zero line, maintaining a bullish structure with moderately increasing histogram volume. The RSI remains in the strong zone without showing overbought conditions, indicating solid support below and a short-term bullish bias.

    📝 Review:A stronger US dollar coupled with rising real interest rates suppressed precious metal pricing, leading to a significant decline in safe-haven buying and a continuous reduction in long positions. Physical buying was insufficient to offset the selling pressure in the financial markets. Technically, prices rebounded but encountered resistance before falling back, forming consecutive bearish candlesticks. The 4-hour MACD continues to diverge below the zero line, with the bearish histogram expanding, and the RSI continues to decline. Multiple resistance levels above indicate a clear short-term weakening trend.

    Brent Crude Oil 4.334% 94.445 94.294
    📝 Review:Geopolitical disturbances have led to a supply risk premium, refined oil consumption data has improved month-on-month, and commercial crude oil inventories are expected to decline, all contributing to a supportive environment for oil prices. Technically, after a deep pullback to a key support level, buying interest emerged, pushing prices back above important moving averages. The 4-hour MACD histogram is shrinking and poised for a golden cross, while the RSI is recovering from its lows. The pullback has not disrupted the upward structure, suggesting continued short-term upward-biased fluctuations.

    WTI Crude Oil 89.502  Buy  Target Price  91.334

    📝 Review:Rising US Treasury yields pressured growth stock valuations, leading to profit-taking in the AI sector. Funds flowed from overvalued technology stocks to defensive sectors, cooling market risk appetite. Technically, the index failed to break through previous highs, forming consecutive bearish candlestick patterns. A bearish divergence structure formed on the 4-hour chart, the MACD histogram contracted rapidly, and the RSI fell from its high, indicating weakening bullish momentum and potential short-term pullback pressure.
