Abstract:The gold price is making a renewed attempt to break above its ascending channel as the resolution of the US debt ceiling crisis faces further delays. The slowdown in US retail sales strengthens expectations for a steady monetary policy stance by the Federal Reserve. Additionally, the time extension granted for debt ceiling approval has bolstered demand for US government bonds. These factors highlight the current dynamics impacting the gold market and the broader economic landscape.
Asian session witnessed some bullish sentiment in gold price after it dropped below $1,990.00. The US dollar index struggles to sustain its upward trend above 102.70, providing a rebound opportunity for gold. However, gold lacks a strong upward momentum and requires breaking through more resistance levels to gain traction.
Despite the delay in reaching an agreement to raise the US debt ceiling, S&P 500 futures in the Asian session show notable gains. It is certain that approving a default is not feasible. Each negotiating representative acknowledges the potential disaster of increasing spending while raising the US debt ceiling.
The delay in approving the debt ceiling increase boosts demand for US government bonds, leading to a decline in the yield of 10-year Treasury bonds to 3.53%.
The US dollar index faces resistance after its continued rebound above 102.70. Slowing pace of US retail sales reinforces market expectations for the Federal Reserve (Fed) to maintain a stable monetary policy stance. Retail sales for the month recorded a 0.4% increase, lower than the expected 0.7%. While retail sales show modest growth, it is insufficient to impact market expectations regarding the Fed's stable monetary policy.
