➡️Fundamental Overview
- Gold extends rally after media reignites debate over 0.50% vs 0.25% Fed cut
- Gold continued to rally during Friday’s Asian session due to the revival of the debate over whether the Federal Reserve (Fed) will cut interest rates by 0.50% or 0.25% at its meeting next Wednesday.
- The release of still-high core consumer price inflation data, in the form of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) on Wednesday, had seemingly put to bed hopes of a “jumbo” 0.50% (50 pbs) cut. However, an article by a respected The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) Fed Watcher Nick Timiraos, as well as comments from former President of the New York Fed William Dudley, suggested a 0.50% should still be considered. This, in turn, led to a fall in US Treasury yields, a sell-off in the US Dollar (USD), and a rally in Gold’s price.
- Lower interest rates are positive for Gold because it reduces the opportunity cost of holding the non-interest-bearing asset, making it more attractive to investors.
