At the end of the Asian market on Monday (December 4), the Fed Chairman Powell said in his opening speech at Bellman College in Atlanta on December 1 local time. It is too early to confidently conclude that we have taken sufficient restrictive positions or speculate on when policies may be relaxed. Powell stated that the Fed is cautiously moving forward as the risks of insufficient and excessive tightening are becoming more balanced. He reiterated the Fed's intention to remain cautious, but also expressed optimistic views on the current progress in reducing inflation. Affected by Powell's speech, the US dollar index fell sharply during the sell-off period last Friday and broke through support levels downwards, ultimately closing near the intraday low. At the opening of the Asian market today, the US dollar index fluctuated slightly, with a current price around 103.29. Gold was influenced by the dovish remarks of the Fed Chairman, and the Asian market opened today with a surge of $72 to 2143, followed by market gains being hindered. If there is no fundamental change in the fundamentals of the future market, it is highly likely that the bullish trend of gold will continue in the future. US crude oil was influenced by the fundamentals of oil producing countries, and after being under pressure above last Friday, the market plummeted and broke through multiple support levels consecutively, ultimately closing near the intraday low. At the opening of the Asian market today, US crude oil continued its previous decline, with a current price of 73.60. Joachim Nagel, the President of the Bundesbank and member of the European Central Bank's governing committee, said that inflation in the Eurozone will continue to decline in the coming months, but the pace will slow down, so it is too early to declare victory now.The inflation rate in the Eurozone has dropped from 2.9% in October to 2.4% in November, far below expectations for the third consecutive month. This has increased market expectations that the European Central Bank (ECB) will lower interest rates faster than currently guided. EURUSD fell first and then rose last Friday, ultimately closing near the intraday median. At the opening of the Asian market today, there was a slight downward fluctuation, with the current price around 1.0874. USDJPY fell sharply last Friday due to the impact of the US dollar fundamentals and broke through multiple support levels, ultimately closing near the intraday low. At the opening of the Asian market today, USDJPY fell first and then rose, with a current price around 146.66.
