April 6 – Daniel Takieddine, CEO of Sky Links Capital, said Saturday that gold’s upside potential may be limited as market expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate cuts fade. Strong U.S. labor data has lifted Treasury yields, pressuring gold prices. Ongoing diplomatic efforts have boosted hopes for a potential Middle East conflict resolution, adding further uncertainty to the gold outlook. That said, geopolitical risks outside the Middle East and continued central bank gold purchases continue to support gold prices. Takieddine noted the metal’s short-term trajectory will hinge on upcoming U.S. economic data, Fed policy signals, and geopolitical developments.

April 6 – Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Saeed Khatibzadeh slammed U.S. threats against Iranian infrastructure as a "war crime" and warned any country aiding Washington would face legal accountability. "Undoubtedly, just making such threats is itself a war crime," he said, noting the U.S. simultaneously talks about targeting "energy and industrial infrastructure" while giving Israel "the green light to attack civilian targets." He stressed these actions qualify as war crimes under international humanitarian law and the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. "All countries must recognize: any cooperation or assistance provided to the U.S. during the commission of its crimes will be held accountable as war crimes and crimes against humanity."
