### Last Night’s Major Events
1. **U.S.-Iran Agreement Officially Finalized**: Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding text finalized, signed in Switzerland on 6/19; Strait of Hormuz reopens within 30 days, Iran’s oil sanctions lifted → Oil prices plummeted 5% to $80.25/barrel
2. **Feverish Rate Hike Expectations Cool Down Rapidly**: Oil crash → Eased inflation concerns → Market’s rate hike bets sharply retreat, dollar index weakens, gold receives dual support
3. **Citibank Raises 3-Month Targets**: Gold forecast adjusted to $4,500/oz, silver to $70/oz
4. **Israel Adds Uncertainty**: Netanyahu states not bound by Lebanon clause of the agreement, IDF does not withdraw, adding variables to the agreement’s implementation
5. **BOJ Rate Hike Imminent Today**: Expected from 0.75% to 1.00% (highest since 31 years), Governor Ueda absent due to illness, subsequent rate hike pace remains a mystery

### Strategy Judgment
**Qualitative: Oversold correction, trend reversal awaits FOMC confirmation**

U.S.-Iran agreement → oil price collapse → inflation cooling → rate hike expectations retreat, this transmission chain pushed gold back above $4,300 today, but fundamentally it’s “oversold correction after bad news,” not a trend reversal signal.

Key logic: **Gold has decoupled from geopolitical safe-haven, purely following rate trends**. While the agreement eased geopolitical tensions, what truly drives gold prices is the expectation that “inflation pressures may peak → Fed no longer needs to be more hawkish.” The upcoming Wosh’s debut on 6/18 is the decisive move that will determine whether “correction” can upgrade to “reversal.”

- **Wosh leans dovish/neutral** (removes rate cut bias but no mention of rate hikes) → Gold targets $4,366-4,400
- **Wosh leans hawkish** (keeps rate hike options + dot plot upward revision) → retest $4,250 or even $4,000

**Operational suggestion**: Maintain bullish mindset above $4,280, but avoid heavy positions before FOMC; if the gap $4,280-4,309 is not filled, the trend continues strongly; filling the gap may lead to consolidation.
