📊Gold rises on hopes of Fed rate cut Gold rose to around $3,380 per ounce on Monday, its third straight daily gain, as traders bet on a U.S. rate cut in September. 👉 Possible effects for traders Markets now see almost a 100% chance of a Federal Reserve (Fed) rate cut next month after weak jobs data raised fears of early signs of recession. The report showed fewer new jobs and downward revisions for previous months. Fed official Mary Daly said rate cuts may be needed soon due to a weaker labour market and low inflation. Gold also gained from trade tensions with new U.S. tariffs on exports starting on 7 August. Geopolitical risks and central bank demand lift gold as well, though high inflation or a more aggressive Fed could limit further gains. Investors are watching political news, as President Trump is expected to name a new Fed governor and chief labour market statistician. These picks could support his push for lower interest rates. Lower rates usually benefit gold, which doesn't pay interest. 📲 More trading opportunities in our app If the link doesn’t work, try a special one for your country: 🇮🇩ID 🇮🇳IN 🇵🇰PK 🇹🇭TH

📊EURUSD rises as weak U.S. jobs data boosts rate cut bets The euro rose 1.37% to $1.1571 on Friday. It was on track for its biggest daily gain since April after U.S. job numbers came in weaker than expected. 👉 Possible effects for traders The U.S. dollar stayed flat on Monday after taking a hit from poor jobs data and President Trump's firing of a top labour official. July job growth was well below forecasts, and previous months were revised down by 258,000 jobs, signalling a worsening labour market. This sent the dollar down over 1.5% against the euro on Friday. Market reactions to Friday night's events were swift and decisive,' said analyst Tony Sycamore from IG. 'Equities and the U.S. dollar tumbled, along with yields.' Traders now see a 95% chance of a Federal Reserve (Fed) rate cut next month. They expect over 63 basis points of cuts by December. While the Fed looks cautious, the European Central Bank is seen cutting rates in April and June 2025. A more dovish Fed usually weakens the dollar. Still, political instability in Germany and France and ongoing U.S. tariffs are limiting the euro's gains. Analysts say the pair's next moves depend on more U.S. data and trade news. 📲 More trading opportunities in our app If the link doesn’t work, try a special one for your country: 🇮🇩ID 🇮🇳IN 🇵🇰PK 🇹🇭TH

📊 Gold steady as new tariffs boost dollar Gold prices fluctuated around $3,300 per ounce on Friday as the U.S. dollar strengthened after President Trump announced higher tariffs on several countries. 👉 Possible effects for traders Trump reaffirmed a 10% global base tariff and retaliatory tariffs of up to 41% on countries without trade deals with the U.S. He also introduced a 40% tax on goods that might be rerouted through third countries to avoid tariffs. Mexico received a 90-day extension but still faces sector-specific U.S. tariffs. U.S. data showed that both core and overall Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) prices in June exceeded expectations. This raised inflation concerns and made it less likely that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will cut interest rates in September. The Fed's strong views, expressed by Chair Jerome Powell, have boosted the U.S. dollar, limiting gold's price increase. The outlook for gold remains complicated due to monetary policy, economic data, and global issues. The coming hours will show whether new trade agreements will reduce trade war concerns or raise fears of high inflation. Investors should pay attention to the July jobs report—it will provide insights into the job market and indicate the Fed's next move. 📲 More trading opportunities in our app If the link doesn’t work, try a special one for your country: 🇮🇩ID 🇮🇳IN 🇵🇰PK 🇹🇭TH

📊 Euro falls sharply as Fed remains cautious The euro (EUR) extended its decline towards 1.14000, the lowest level since mid-June. A stronger U.S. dollar (USD) pressured the euro as traders reacted to the Federal Reserve's (Fed) latest policy decision. 👉 Possible effects for traders The Fed kept the federal funds rate unchanged as expected. Fed Chair Jerome Powell signalled at the press conference that a rate cut in September was far from guaranteed. Powell noted that the Fed would stick to its data-driven approach and that there was no clear plan for the Fed's next meeting. The U.S. dollar further strengthened, rising by nearly 2.5% in three days. Meanwhile, fresh data showed the eurozone economy grew by a modest 0.1% in Q2, slowing sharply from 0.6% in Q1 but still exceeding expectations. The data was mixed, showing that Germany and Italy's gross domestic product (GDP) contracted by 0.1%, while France and Spain's expanded. Expectations for the European Central Bank (ECB) rate cut have also been pushed further out. EURUSD is now in a freefall after closing way below 1.16000 on Wednesday. There is no significant support as the major trendline on the daily chart has been broken. Much will depend on the U.S. dollar, which reversed its longer-term downtrend and strengthened against the basket of main currencies, especially the euro. Investors should watch the upcoming Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) and Jobless Claims data today at 12:30 p.m. UTC for signs of a bigger picture change. 📲 More trading opportunities in our app If the link doesn’t work, try a special one for your country: 🇮🇩ID 🇮🇳IN 🇵🇰PK 🇹🇭TH

📊Gold holds steady ahead of Fed interest rate decision Gold (XAU) found support around $3,320 on Tuesday, staying near a three-week low as easing trade tensions reduced the metal's safe-haven appeal. 👉 Possible effects for traders The U.S.–EU trade agreement, which imposed a 15% tariff on most European goods, helped avert a broader trade conflict. With additional talks ongoing with Canada, South Korea, and other countries, investors are increasingly optimistic that further escalations can be avoided. Meanwhile, the U.S. and China are continuing discussions about the extension of a tariff truce set to expire in two weeks and the terms of a trade deal. Investors will closely watch today's Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate decision at 6:00 p.m. UTC. The market expects the base rate to remain unchanged, but investors will focus on Fed Chair Jerome Powell's comments at the press conference for any signals of a possible rate cut in September. A dovish shift in Fed rhetoric or any unexpected softness in data could support the precious metal. A strong U.S. dollar (USD), driven by a resilient labour market and expectations of steady Fed interest rates, continues to pressure gold prices. The metal is priced in U.S. dollars, and a stronger USD makes gold less attractive for investors. Recent gains in gold were tempered by easing geopolitical tensions and optimism from recent trade deals, capping gold's bullish momentum as risk sentiment on global markets improved. Overall, gold's long-term appeal as an inflation hedge persists. Analysts forecast its potential price growth towards $3,550–3,950 by year-end if global monetary policy easing resumes or geopolitical risks continue to unfold. 📲 More trading opportunities in our app If the link doesn’t work, try a special one for your country: 🇮🇩ID 🇮🇳IN 🇵🇰PK 🇹🇭TH
