-- (価格更新) 金価格は月曜午後、ドル高を受けて2日連続で下落した。週末に行われた米国とイランの和平協議が決裂し、ホルムズ海峡の封鎖が続き、史上最大規模の原油供給ショックが続いていることが背景にある。 5月渡しの金先物価格は、1オンスあたり20.20ドル安の4,767.20ドルで取引されている。 米国とイランの協議は、ホルムズ海峡を封鎖し、ペルシャ湾岸諸国が供給する世界の原油需要の20%を遮断している戦争を終結させる合意に至らずに終了した。米国は協議決裂後、イランの港湾を封鎖し、イランに通行料を支払った船舶の海峡通過を阻止する計画で、原油の市場供給を引き続き遮断する方針だ。 2月28日の米中戦争開始以来、原油価格はほぼ半値に上昇し、米国をはじめとする各国でインフレを押し上げ、米国の金利引き下げへの期待は打ち砕かれた。米国は先週、3月の消費者物価指数(CPI)が年率換算で3.3%上昇したと発表した。これは前月の2.4%から上昇幅が拡大した。 ドルは序盤上昇し、ICEドル指数は0.10ポイント高の98.55で推移した。米国債利回りは低下し、2年債利回りは1.7ベーシスポイント低下の3.793%、10年債利回りは3.2ベーシスポイント低下の4.308%となった。
