Market Overview
On Thursday (August 31), spot gold fluctuated in a narrow range during the Asian session, and is currently trading near $1945.21 per ounce. The weak US economic data has deepened expectations that the Fed will temporarily suspend interest rate hikes this year, causing the US dollar index to hit a nearly two-week low near 102.92 on Wednesday and helping gold prices hit a nearly month high of $1948.90 per ounce on Wednesday.
US crude oil fluctuated in a narrow range and is currently trading near $81.63 per barrel. The latest PMI data for China's manufacturing industry in August slightly exceeded market expectations, cooling market concerns about demand. In addition, this week's US data has dampened expectations for further interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve, and EIA crude oil inventories have significantly decreased. Russia has stated that it cannot rule out the possibility of further cuts in oil exports in October. Saudi Arabia may extend its production reduction plan until October, and there is still a chance for further short-term oil price increases.
Of course, the evening will also release the U.S. initial jobless claims data, and the Fed officials will also speak, so investors also need to pay attention. If the initial claims data is poor, it may depress investors' expectations of the U.S. job market, which will still be expected to provide support for gold prices.
In addition, investors should also pay attention to the BoE officials' speeches, ECB minutes and news related to the geopolitical situation.
