Global economic growth is weakening

Global economic growth is weakening

Global economic growth is weakening and the cycle of interest rate hikes is at or about to peak in the Eurozone and the USA. We consider US government bonds to be attractively valued. In global equity markets, we expect only slight growth with increased volatility.

US could soon see 2% inflation

US could soon see 2% inflation

At the recent FOMC press conference, Fed Powell said that the economy has “been able to achieve pretty significant progress on inflation without seeing the kind of increase in unemployment that has been very typical of rate hiking cycles like this one”.

Annual outlook: Weathering the storm

Annual outlook: Weathering the storm

Despite the 525 bps of rate hikes that the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has implemented since March 2022, the U.S. economy generally remains resilient due, in large part, to continued strength in consumer spending. Meanwhile, inflation has receded.

Gold risks a corrective pullback before the uptrend resumes Premium

Gold risks a corrective pullback before the uptrend resumes

Gold price is flirting with a fresh six-month high of  $2,052 reached earlier in the Asian session on Wednesday, extending its winning streak into the fifth straight day.

In the absence of top-tier US economic data so far this week, Gold price remained at the mercy of the Fedspeak and risk sentiment, which intensified the bearish momentum in the USD and US Treasury bond yields across the curve.

Gold price remains poised for further upside. However, a correction cannot be ruled out before a fresh advance kicks in.

The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator has entered into the overbought territory, justifying chances of a potential pullback in Gold price.

In such a case, immediate support is seen at the mid-September highs of 2,022, which was earlier an important resistance.
