According to CME Group, crude oil, U.S. Treasuries, and gold surged in volatility on April 29, reflecting a cross-asset contagion pattern. The CME CVOL index showed crude oil and U.S. Treasury 30-day implied volatility rising sharply, while Treasury convexity has climbed since late 2025, signaling market uncertainty over both inflation resurgence and economic slowdown. Gold prices declined approximately 14% from late February to late March amid Middle East tensions, though volatility and put option demand increased, indicating pressure on traditional safe-haven assets.
