Market Forecast

Gate Research: Over the past week, macro uncertainty has continued to dominate market pricing. Escalating tensions in the Middle East, tariff expectations, and the ongoing AI narrative have reinforced risk-off sentiment, with capital rotating into defensive assets such as oil, gold, and the Japanese yen, putting pressure on risk assets.

Escalating tensions in the Middle East propelled oil prices upward, with WTI surging more than 25% for the week.

Consecutive net inflows into BTC ETFs indicate continued institutional accumulation during the pullback.
