☀️ Morning News Summary｜2026.08.15 Saturday
🟡 XAUUSD Gold Morning Report
Spot gold price: 4375.59 USD/ounce.
On 8/13, gold surged above 4430 before pulling back. On 8/14, during the early session it briefly fell below 4330, but later in the evening it quickly rebounded back above 4390, with noticeably amplified short-term fluctuations.
Technically, RSI is around 54—neutral but slightly bullish. MACD remains above the zero line, but momentum is weak; moving averages are mostly flat. Support to watch is 4370 and 4350; resistance is at 4390 and 4400. Overall, it is still range-bound at high levels. If 4370 holds, there is a chance to test the highs again.
Macro-wise, the U.S. dollar and U.S. Treasury yields are relatively soft. The market’s probability of maintaining the interest rate unchanged in September has risen to 67.5%. Combined with SPDR holdings rebounding and increased COMEX gold net longs, gold’s downside support remains intact.
Conclusion: Slightly bullish consolidation; first, watch whether 4370 can hold steady.
🛢️ USOIL / UKOIL Crude Oil Morning Report
WTI spot: 81.52 USD/barrel; Brent spot: 87.20 USD/barrel.
On 8/13, oil prices clearly gave back gains: WTI briefly broke below 80, while Brent returned to around 85. On 8/14, driven by developments around the Strait of Hormuz and Asian buying, prices rebounded quickly—WTI moved back above 81 and Brent broke above 87.
Technically, WTI RSI is around 56 and Brent around 52. MACD is near the zero line, and WTI momentum is average. WTI support is 81.0/80.5 and resistance is 82.0/82.5; Brent support is 86.8/86.0 and resistance is 88.0/88.5.
Macro-wise, passage through the Strait of Hormuz remains unstable. Meanwhile, Asian refineries’ rush to buy U.S. crude continues to provide support, but U.S. oil drilling has risen to 455 rigs, which limits upside room for supply expectations.
Conclusion: Bullish consolidation overall; chasing longs is worse than waiting for a pullback.
₿ Crypto Morning Report
BTC 62957 (-0.8%), ETH 1880 (-0.3%), BNB 607 (-0.5%), SOL 75.3 (-0.9%). Total market cap across the board is about $2.25 trillion, with a 24-hour decline of roughly 0.59%. The broader market continues a mild pullback; major coins are mostly weak-to-choppy, with no obvious panic sentiment for now. In the short term, focus on whether BTC can hold around 63,000 and whether trading volume expands again.
📌 What to Watch Today
• U.S. total oil rigs for the week of Aug 14: 455. Watch changes in shale oil supply.
• U.S. total rigs for the week of Aug 14: 593. Observe marginal changes in energy supply.
• U.S. total natural gas rigs for the week of Aug 14: 128. Watch supply expectations for the energy sector.
Summary: Gold is consolidating slightly bullish at high levels. Oil is rebounding with geopolitical support and remains choppy after the spike. The crypto market has pulled back slightly; over the weekend, it’s mainly about monitoring volume and key support levels.
