On June 15, Zijin Gold International surged 11.93% in regular trading, trading at HKD 117.0/share, with turnover of HKD 580 million. The stock rebounded sharply from its listing low of HKD 98.3 hit earlier this month.

The rally was driven by a dramatic de-escalation in US-Iran tensions. President Trump announced the cancellation of planned strikes against Iran, stating that an Iran nuclear agreement had been approved and a comprehensive memorandum of understanding was near completion. He also indicated that the Strait of Hormuz would reopen immediately upon signing. Spot gold reclaimed the USD 4,200/oz level, rebounding over 3% from recent lows after having declined approximately 20% year-to-date.

The broader gold sector rallied in tandem. Zijin Mining rose 8.34%, Lingbao Gold gained 7.15%, China Gold International added 6.92%, Zhaojin Mining climbed 6.79%, and Chifeng Gold advanced 6.5%. The sector had previously experienced sustained selling pressure amid elevated US rate hike expectations and continuous ETF outflows, with SPDR Gold Trust holdings falling to annual lows.
