4. U.S. Jobs, Fed & Macro
August payrolls increased by 162K versus expectations near 56K, while unemployment held at 4.1%. The strong report pushed Treasury yields higher and revived expectations for a September Fed hike after earlier dovish comments from Governor Christopher Waller.

5. U.S. & Global Markets
Wall Street remained volatile as markets moved between Fed expectations, higher yields and rising oil prices. Technology stocks remained sensitive to rates, while Broadcom’s stronger AI outlook reinforced continued demand for AI infrastructure.

6. Gold & Silver
Gold initially rallied as rate-hike expectations eased but reversed after the strong jobs report. Gold traded around $4,400–$4,420 and silver near $66 as higher yields and a firmer dollar pressured precious metals.

7. Oil, Iran & Global Macro
Brent surged toward $96–$98 as U.S.–Iran tensions disrupted shipping around the Strait of Hormuz. Higher energy prices are adding inflation risk and complicating the Fed outlook ahead of U.S. PPI, CPI and the September 16 rate decision.
