Market Overview
At the beginning of Asian market on Friday (January 6), the stop loss of USD fluctuated in a narrow range. At present, the trading volume is around 105.12, holding most of the overnight gains. The dollar index hit a new four week high on Thursday, after data showed that the job market was strong, supporting the expectation that the Federal Reserve might maintain the pace of aggressive interest rate increases.
The technical side shows that the US dollar index has initially bottomed out near the half year low of 103.38, and the short-term market is expected to see a wave of rising prices. The initial goal is to look near the 55 day moving average of 105.64, and the radical goal can even look near the 100 day moving average of 108.55.
Spot gold rose in shock. Gold prices were supported by bargain hunting and rebound demand from technical overshoot, and the current trading volume is around 1836.65 dollars/ounce. Many officials of the Federal Reserve tend to further increase interest rates and maintain higher interest rates for a long time to reach the inflation target of 2%. Employment data such as ADP and the number of people applying for unemployment benefits also provide data support for the Federal Reserve to further increase interest rates. The dollar index initially bottoms out in the short term and tends to further fluctuate upward, which is unfavorable for gold prices.
The gold price also showed some signals of reaching the top in terms of technology. Unless the non farm data performed extremely poorly unexpectedly in the evening, the gold price has further downside risks in the short term.
US oil traded at 73.98 dollars/barrel; Oil prices rose nearly 1% on Thursday, supported by US data showing a decline in fuel stocks, while economic concerns limited gains. Colonial Pipeline, the largest pipeline operator in the United States, issued a statement saying that its pipeline 3 was closed due to unscheduled maintenance and was expected to restart on January 7, which supported the price.
This trading day needs to focus on the US December non farm employment report, US December ISM non manufacturing PMI and Fed officials' speeches.
