Strong US payrolls lifted the dollar and gold briefly hit $5118, closing up 1%.

On Wednesday, due to strong non farm payrolls, the market reduced its bet on the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut, and the US dollar index rose in the short term during trading, hitting a intraday high of 97.24 points. However, it quickly gave up its gains and ultimately closed up 0.083% at 96.88; The yield of US Treasury bonds rebounded across the board, with the benchmark 10-year yield closing at 4.174% and the 2-year yield sensitive to the Federal Reserve policy rate closing at 3.512%. On Wednesday (February 11th), spot gold prices surged to around $5118 per ounce, and ultimately closed with an increase of over 1%, closing at around $5083 per ounce. However, after a brief suppression of employment data, bulls quickly counterattacked. Geopolitical tensions, uncertainty in Federal Reserve personnel, central bank gold purchases, and debt concerns resonated to drive a 17% increase this year. The market's attention has shifted to Friday's CPI data. Boosted by the potential supply risks posed by the ongoing tensions between the US and Iran, international crude oil prices have once again closed higher. WTI crude oil first rose and then fell, due to an unexpected surge in US EIA crude oil inventories, ultimately closing up 1.09% at $64.77 per barrel; Brent crude oil closed up 0.9% at $69.3 per barrel.
