Newtalk新聞 中東局勢出現緩和跡象，全球能源市場週一（2 日）掀起一波跌勢。隨著美國與伊朗釋出外交談判訊號，市場對能源供應中斷的擔憂降溫，國際油價重挫逾 7%，西德州原油（WTI）跌破每桶 100 美元，歐洲天然氣期貨也大幅下挫。 另一方面，國際金價在跌破每盎司 4,000 美元後，吸引逢低買盤回流，週一反彈近 2%，呈現能源價格走弱、黃金回升的走勢。 美伊談判露曙光 油價、天然氣雙雙跳水 據《路透社》報導，伊朗代表團上週末在卡達首都杜哈，與卡達調解人員連續數日磋商，試圖為長達 8 個月的戰事尋求解方。伊朗外交部週一證實，德黑蘭已提出縮短版和平方案，要求美國解除對伊朗港口的海上封鎖、放寬石油出口限制，並提議在達成協議後，將荷姆茲海峽重新開放的時程由原訂 7 天縮短至 2 天。 伊朗總統裴澤斯基安（Masoud Pezeshkian）透露，最高領袖穆吉塔巴（Mojtaba Khamenei）已授予政府部分談判權限，進一步推升市場對外交突破的期待。不過，美伊目前仍未達成實質協議，美國總統川普也未排除期中選舉後恢復軍事行動的可能，中東局勢仍存在變數。 此外，美國總統川普週一接受《Axios》專訪時表示，目前不急於決定是否恢復對伊朗動武，並稱美方已透過經濟施壓重創伊朗，雙方談判進展尚可，伊朗也比以往更希望達成協議。據報導，白宮目前仍在評估外交談判、恢復軍事打擊及持續經濟施壓等選項，卡達也提出為期 3 天的建立互信措施草案，試圖促成美伊恢復直接對話。不過，川普並未排除日後動武的可能。 受此影響，國際油價週一重挫逾 7%，布蘭特原油（Brent）期貨收在每桶 104.77 美元，下跌 7.63%；WTI 期貨收在 96.46 …
