Gold Market Weekly Overview
During the past week, gold prices initially declined but found strong support near the $4,600 mark, which sparked a reversal and pushed values above $4,800. Shifts in U.S. interest rates remain a key factor for gold’s movement—when rates decrease, gold tends to strengthen, and the opposite is also true.

Additionally, news that Iran would allow ships to navigate the Strait of Hormuz freely during the ceasefire contributed to another surge in gold prices. In summary, the current environment suggests that any short-term dips are likely to attract buyers, and the upward momentum may persist.

VIPOil Risk Premiums and rToken Dividend Arbitrage Strategies
1. This week we focus on cross-asset positioning under an energy shock and arbitrage opportunities in tokenized-stock cash dividends. We recommend assessing market direction separately from income sources. Higher oil can weigh on growth valuations, lift inflation expectations, and spark expectations of Fed rate hikes, putting pressure on equities and crypto. 2. rToken net cash dividends can be distributed separately, but buying spot, shorting a perpetual, and holding across the record date does not automatically create an arbitrage. First confirm ex-dividend eligibility, platform snapshots, after-tax amounts, and the corporate-action rules for the short leg. Then compare funding fees, spreads, and execution costs. A dividend arbitrage strategy can be applied to STRC. 3. Next week's Fed decision and major technology earnings are key. Lower policy uncertainty can help restore risk appetite, but a sustained rebound still needs confirmation from rates, cloud growth, capital expenditure, and free cash flow. Our base case is a monthly-timeframe rebound in risk assets and crypto as earnings season, the Fed meeting, and the midterm elections pass and uncertainty recedes. Assets in focus: BTC, ETH, SOL, WTI, ASML, MSFT, GOOG, AMZN, CAT, and STRC
