Current Fundamentals:

The dollar has bounced Thursday after falling to its lowest level since March during the previous session.

Confidence that the U.S. Federal Reserve will start cutting interest rates at its next meeting in September, to boost a slowing economy, has weighed heavily on the greenback.

EUR/USD fell 0.1% to 1.0928, slipping slightly from Wednesday's four-month peak ahead of a policy-setting European Central Bank meeting later in the session.

The central bank is widely expected to keep rates steady, after cutting in June, and thus attention will largely be on the comments from ECB President Christine Lagarde at the accompanying press conference.

USD/CNY slipped slightly lower at 7.2586, with the pair steadying below eight-month highs.
Sentiment towards China worsened as a Bloomberg report said the U.S. was considering stricter curbs on China’s technology and chipmaking industry - a move that could draw ire from Beijing and spark a renewed trade war between the world’s biggest economies.

XAUUSD

Gold price (XAU/USD) edges higher to near $2,470 per troy ounce on Thursday, remaining close to record highs amid growing optimism that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will reduce rates in September. Lower interest rates make non-yielding assets like Gold more attractive to investors.

Federal Reserve officials have expressed increasing confidence that the pace of price increases is now more consistently aligning with policymakers' goals. On Wednesday, Fed Governor Christopher Waller said that the US central bank is ‘getting closer’ to an interest rate cut. Meanwhile, Richmond Fed President Thomas Barkin stated that easing in inflation had begun to broaden and he would like to see it continue,” per Reuters. Traders will likely observe the US weekly Initial Jobless Claims and the Philly Fed Manufacturing Index on Thursday, along with the Fed’s Lorie Logan speech.

The US Dollar Index (DXY), which measures the value of the US Dollar (USD) against the six other major currencies, rebounds due to improved US Treasury yields. The DXY trades around 103.80, with yields on 2-year and 10-year US Treasury bonds standing at 4.45% and 4.17%, respectively, at the time of writing. This scenario may limit the upside of the Gold prices.

The escalating deficits and soaring national debt influence the gold market positively. As the U.S. debt continues to climb, reaching unprecedented levels, concerns about the stability of the U.S. dollar and the country's fiscal health grow. Historically, gold has been a preferred hedge against inflation and currency devaluation. Investors tend to flock to gold as a safe-haven asset in times of economic uncertainty, anticipating that it will retain its value better than fiat currencies subject to inflationary pressures. Consequently, the increasing national debt and deficit can drive up the demand for gold, pushing its prices higher.

Moreover, the rising debt interest payments, which are projected to exceed $1 trillion, indicate a growing burden on the federal budget. As the government allocates more resources to service its debt, it may have to resort to further monetary easing or other measures that could devalue the currency. Such fiscal policies often erode investor confidence in traditional assets and fiat currencies, making gold an attractive alternative. The perception of gold as a stable store of value becomes more pronounced, especially when government spending and debt levels appear unsustainable. This shift in investor sentiment can lead to increased purchases of gold, thereby boosting its market price.

On the other hand, geopolitical tensions and economic fragmentation also play a crucial role in enhancing gold's appeal. As geopolitical conflicts and divisions between major economic powers like the U.S. and China intensify, global markets may experience heightened volatility and uncertainty. These geopolitical risks can disrupt international trade and economic stability, prompting investors to seek refuge in gold. Additionally, if economic fragmentation leads to a bifurcated global economy, with distinct blocs aligning with either the U.S. or China, the potential for economic instability increases. In such a fragmented world, gold serves as a universal asset, unbound by the fortunes of any single currency or economy, thus becoming even more attractive as a safe haven.

This increased demand for gold amid geopolitical strife can drive its prices upward, benefiting the gold market significantly.

The combination of rising national debt, escalating deficits, and geopolitical tensions creates a highly favorable environment for the gold market. As investors seek to protect their assets against inflation, currency devaluation, and economic instability, gold emerges as a reliable safe-haven asset. The increasing fiscal burdens on the U.S. government, coupled with global geopolitical strife, drive up demand for gold, pushing its prices to new heights. By closely monitoring these macroeconomic and geopolitical factors, investors can strategically trade gold, leveraging technical analysis and market insights to capitalize on gold's potential for significant gains during times of uncertainty. The recent breakout in the gold market has initiated a strong surge and is likely to continue higher in July and August.

Gold price is looking to extend previous gains early Tuesday, having clinched a new two-month high at $2,440 a day ago. Growing expectations that a US Federal Reserve (Fed) interest-rate cut in September is a done deal continue to underpin the non-interest-bearing Gold price.

🟢 Powell's Comments

Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s comments affirmed bets for a rate reduction in September after he said Monday that the central bank will not wait until inflation hits 2% to lower interest rates. The Fed is looking for “greater confidence” that inflation will return to the 2% level, Powell added.

Those remarks by the Fed Chief fueled a fresh leg down in the US Dollar (USD) alongside the US Treasury bond yields, driving Gold price back toward an all-time high of $2,450 zone.

🟢 Trump Assassination Attempt

Earlier, yesterday, Gold price witnessed some corrective moves, as the Greenback took advantage of risk-aversion induced by the weekend’s assassination attempt on ex-US President Donald Trump during his Pennsylvania rally. Investors digested the fateful Trump attack and ramped up the odds of his win in the US Presidential race.

🟢 China Second Quarter GDP

Further, investors flocked to safety in the USD following China’s second-quarter GDP miss in Asian hours on Monday. Data released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) showed Monday that the world's second-largest economy grew 4.7% year-on-year in April-June, slowing from 5.3% in the previous three months while recording the weakest growth since the third quarter of 2023.

🟢 China Stimulus

Speculations that China could roll out stimulus measures to boost economic performance could also render Gold positive in the near term.

🟢 Weak US Treasury Bonds

In Tuesday’s trading so far, Gold price is gathering strength for the next push higher even as the US Dollar stages a modest comeback. The rebound in the USD/JPY pair could be attributed to the USD uptick. However, weak US Treasury bond yields continue to support the non-yielding Gold price.

🟢 Core Retail Sales Data today

Later in the day, the US Retail Sales report and Fedspeak will grab the eyeballs, as traders look to seal in a September Fed rate cut. Weaker-than-expected US Retail Sales data could reinforce the USD selling, lifting the Gold price northward.

The Gold price (XAU/USD) trades with mild gains on Wednesday during the early European session. The growing speculation that the US Federal Reserve (Fed) is likely to start cutting rates as early as September continues to support the non-yielding metal. Furthermore, political uncertainties within Europe and globally might boost Gold price, a traditional safe-haven asset.

On the other hand, the pause of China's central bank Gold purchases for a second consecutive month might prompt traders to reduce bullish bets in the yellow metal as China is the world's largest gold consumer. Investors will keep an eye on the second semi-annual testimony by Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell on Wednesday, along with speeches by the Fed's Michelle Bowman and Austan Goolsbee. On Thursday, the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation data will be closely monitored. This data might offer more clarity on the US interest rate path.

Powell Testimony: Key Takeaways

Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell said in testimony Tuesday to Congress that the most recent inflation data showed some modest further progress and "more good data" could open the door to interest rate cuts.

Powell emphasized that the central bank will continue to make decisions on monetary policy meeting by meeting, adding that holding interest rates too high for too long could jeopardize economic growth.

Fed Chair Powell stated that “elevated inflation is not the only risk we face,” warning that lowering interest rates too little or too soon could put the economy at risk. He added that while it’s possible to hike rates if the data supports it, the most likely direction would be to “begin to loosen policy at the right moment."

Powell further stated that inflation readings over the first three months of this year did not boost Fed officials’ confidence that inflation was coming under control.

World Gold Council (WGC) revealed that Gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) experienced a second month of inflows in June. The WGC stated that total fund holdings rose by around 18 tonnes to 3,106 tonnes.

This contrasts with the People’s Bank of China’s (PBoC) decision not to buy Gold in June as it did in May. China held 72.80 million troy ounces of the precious metal at the end of June.

Ample gold market liquidity

Global gold trading volumes across various markets averaged US$195bn/day in June, 9.5% down m/m. Over-the-counter (OTC) trading activities rose by 8.6% compared to May – LBMA trades were the main driver, signalling robust demand globally. In contrast, exchange-traded derivatives saw a -32% m/m plunge: volumes at COMEX fell by -35% m/m and Shanghai futures trading continued to cool (-24%). Gold ETF trading volumes saw a contraction of 15%m/m, mainly due to North American funds.

Despite the decline in June, global gold market liquidity averaged US$210bn/day, remaining well above Q1(US$182bn/day) and 2023 (US$163bn/day). Rising OTC trading activities, mainly at the LBMA, together with surges in Shanghai Futures Exchange and the North American gold ETF market were main H1 contributors.

COMEX total net longs remained stable at 767t by the end of June, a 1t m/m decline. Meanwhile money manager net longs rose further, reaching 575t at the end of June, a 3% increase m/m and the highest month-end value since February 2020.

Total net longs and money manager net longs have risen in H1 by 13% and 36% respectively – the strong gold price performance and various uncertainties on multiple fronts may have attracted investors.

WGC: GOLD ETF FLOWS: June 2024

Highlights

Following the strongest month since May 2023, global gold ETFs have now seen inflows two months in a row; in June, notable European and Asian buying offset outflows from North America

Although June and May inflows helped limit global gold ETFs’ y-t-d losses to US$6.7bn (-120t), this remains the worst H1 since 2013 – both Europe and North America saw hefty outflows while Asia was the only region with inflows

A stronger gold price and recent inflows pushed the total AUM to US$233bn, but collective holdings remain near their lowest since 2020
Trading volumes across different gold markets witnessed a mild decline in June; however, the H1 average remains well above its 2023 level as OTC and futures trading were exceptionally active.

Regional overview

North America continued to see mild outflows, shedding US$573mn in June. The dollar strength and continued equity rally may have drawn investor attention away from gold despite falling Treasury yields.3 Nonetheless, flare-ups in geopolitical risk prompted sporadic inflows, partially offsetting larger outflows during the month.

North America saw outflows of US$4.9bn during H1, the largest in three years. However, a 13% rise in the gold price during H1 also resulted in a 7.7% increase in North America’s total AUM. Meanwhile, the region’s collective holdings reduced by 78t.

European funds added US$1.4bn in June, the second consecutive month of inflows. This helped further narrow Europe’s H1 outflows to US$4.9bn. The region’s central banks adopted a different path to that of the US Fed. For instance, in June, the European Central Bank delivered its first rate cut for almost five years whilst the Swiss National Bank lowered rates for the second time this year.4 In the UK, the Bank of England hinted that a potential cut was on the cards but left rates unchanged following a surprise general election announcement. As such, lowering yields were a key contributor to the region’s inflows. Additionally, falling equities and political uncertainties related to elections in the UK and France, which sparked notable inflows there, also pushed up investor interest in gold.5

Nonetheless, 2024 saw the worst first half for European funds since 2013 (-US$8bn). Despite a 6% fall in holdings, total AUM of European funds experienced a 6.3% rise during the first half, thanks to the higher gold price.

Asia extended its inflow streak to 16 months, attracting US$560mn in June. Similar to previous months, Asian inflows were mainly driven by China, which added US$429mn in the month. Among factors that kept Chinese investor interest in gold elevated, we believe persistent weaknesses in stocks and the property sector, as well as continued depreciation in the RMB were highly relevant. Japan also witnessed its 16th consecutive monthly inflow in June, primarily supported by a weakening yen.

Asia registered inflows of US$3.1bn in H1, significantly outpacing all other markets and the only region witnessing positive flows. This represents the strongest ever H1 for Asian funds, mainly driven by record-level inflows into China and Japan. Supported by record-breaking inflows and a higher gold price, the total AUM of Asian funds reached US$14bn, the highest ever, while collective holdings increased by 41t.

Following two consecutive monthly outflows, funds in other regions captured a small inflow of US$37mn in June, led by Australia and South Africa. In H1, funds listed in other regions saw mild outflows, mainly from Turkey.

What is T+1 settlement?

As of 2024, the U.S. stock market has transitioned to a T+1 settlement cycle, meaning that most stock transactions now settle one business day after the trade date. This change aims to reduce settlement risk and align with modern technology and practices.

Example of T+1 Settlement

Say that on Monday, June 3, an investor named Sarah decides to sell 100 shares of XYZ Corporation stock at $50 per share. She places the order through her broker and the trade is executed the same day.

Under a "T+1" settlement cycle, the settlement date for this transaction would be Tuesday, June 4, (assuming no holidays). This means that:

Sarah's broker-dealer will deliver the 100 shares of XYZ Corporation stock to the buyer's account on Tuesday, June 4.

The buyer's payment of $5,000 (100 shares × $50 per share) will be delivered to Sarah's account on Tuesday, June 4.

If the trade was executed under a "T+2" settlement cycle, the settlement date would have been Wednesday, June 5 instead, meaning the transfer of securities and cash would have occurred two business days after the trade date, and not one.

🆘 WHY XAUUSD crashed today?

XAUUSD crashed from Friday high $2392 ($2385 zone - 2351.00 - today's low)

A fear of increased inflation under a Trump presidency with the consequent higher interest rates is negatively impacting Gold. Gold weakened as fears Trump could win the next presidency weigh on bond markets.

Gold (XAU/USD) falls on Monday in line with most commodities, which are declining due to global growth fears after under-par US employment data last week.

Rising US Treasury bond yields, as a result of increased probabilities that former President Donald Trump could win the next presidential election in November, may also be weakening Gold. Trump is expected to cut taxes but maintain spending which will lead to higher inflation and interest rates – a negative for the non-interest-bearing asset Gold.

Given the question marks over President Joe Biden’s capacity to hold office and with no popular replacement on the radar, Trump is increasingly being viewed as the most likely candidate to win the presidential election. Known for cutting taxes and borrowing to cover the short-fall, his fiscal policies are likely to keep inflation high, leading to higher interest rates. This is having a negative impact on US Treasury bonds and pushing up yields, which are inversely correlated to Gold. The US Dollar is also benefiting from the outlook and further weighing on Gold price, which is primarily bought and sold in USD, according to Reuters.

China's Central Bank has stopped buying for the second month in June.

The precious metal loses traction as the People’s Bank of China (PBoC), the Chinese central bank kept Gold buying on hold for the second month in June, according to official data released on Sunday. It’s worth noting that China is the world’s biggest bullion consumer, and the pause in gold buying could weigh on the Gold price.

Technical Correction/Profit Booking sliced down long volumes.

Additionally, short-term traders taking profit after the 1.45% gain witnessed on Friday, could also be weighing.

WHY XAUUSD shot up to $2380 (current high) after NFP Data?

Gold (XAU/USD) rises on Friday, continuing its run of positive days as investors become increasingly optimistic the Federal Reserve (Fed) will lower interest rates sooner than previously thought, and the US Dollar (USD) softens, adding a lift to Gold which is predominantly bought and sold in Dollars.

I had indicated the same, in advance that retail traders might focus on NFP data and might ignore UE, however UE plays a major role in policy making/FED cut related statements/decisions.

Gold price is consolidating near two-week highs of $2,365 reached on Wednesday, as the US Dollar (USD) continues to lick its wounds, shrugging off a minor bounce in the US Treasury bond yields. Gold price braces for the return of US traders from the July 4 holiday and the all-important Nonfarm Payrolls data for fresh impulse.

🟢 Thin volumes: driving price range in one direction 🔺, as alerted by us in advance

With an Independence Day holiday in the US on Thursday, Gold price held higher ground near two-week highs while within a confined range due to thin liquidity conditions. Markets also stayed unnerved, as UK voters headed to polls, limiting the trading activity around the traditional safe-haven Gold price.

Traders are pricing in a 73% chance of a cut in September, according to the CME FedWatch tool. Markets are also pricing in potentially two rate cuts this year.

🟢 The NFP Saga

All eyes now turn to the high-impact US labor market report due later on Friday at 12:30 GMT, which could have a strong bearing on the market’s pricing of the Fed rate cuts, affecting the value of the US Dollar and that of the Gold price.

US Nonfarm Payrolls are set to rise by 190K in June after recording a 272K gain in May while Average Hourly Earnings are expected to show a 3.9% growth annually, following a 4.1% advance previously. If these key data sets come in below the market consensus, it would reinforce bets for two Fed rate cuts this year and a September rate cut would be a done deal. In such a scenario, the US Dollar is likely to meet fresh supply, offering a fresh leg to the Gold price upside.

However, the Greenback could rebound firmly if the headline NFP and the wage inflation data surprise to the upside, prompting investors to dial down their dovish Fed expectations. This would render negative for the non-interest-bearing Gold price.

Gold price is looking to extend the previous upsurge early Thursday, sitting at the highest level in over a week near $2,360. Sustained US Dollar (USD) weakness alongside sluggish US Treasury bond yields underpin Gold price amid the July 4 US holiday-thinned market conditions.

Following US Federal Reserve (Fed) Chairman Jerome Powell’s remarks at the European Central Bank (ECB) Forum On Central Banking in Sintra on Tuesday, the USD sellers refuse to give up as Fed doves returned to the table with strong conviction after US economic data on Wednesday failed to impress, despite not-so-dovish Minutes of the June policy meeting.

Discouraging US data ramped up September Fed rate cut bets, with markets now pricing a 73% chance, against a 67% probability seen before the data release. This smashed the US Treasury bond yields across the curve, heavily weighing on the US Dollar. Gold price tends to benefit in times of low interest-rates era.

🟢 Gold price continues to capitalize on the dovish Fed expectations heading into the US Independence Day holiday, with moves likely to be exaggerated likely to be exaggerated by low liquidity and repositioning ahead of the all-important US Nonfarm Payrolls data due on Friday.

Election based safe haven demand:

In the meantime, investors would prefer to seek safety in the Gold price, as the UK general elections get underway on Thursday, heightening market anxiety even though the Labour Party is set for a sweeping victory for the first time in 14 years.
