Market Overview
During the Asian session on Friday (May 12), spot gold oscillated slightly lower, extending the overnight decline, once hitting a near one-week low of $2008.43 per ounce, and is now trading near $ 2009.73. While fears of a U.S. debt default gave gold prices safe-haven support, the U.S. dollar attracted a greater influx of funds. The U.S. hit a new high of more than a week overnight, putting pressure on gold prices; and Minneapolis Fed President Kashkari mentioned the possibility of keeping interest rates high for a longer period of time, which also put pressure on gold prices.
U.S. crude oil shock weakness, once hit a one-week low to $70.20 per barrel, lingering concerns about the U.S. debt default crisis. Thursday's poorer-than-expected economic data from the U.S. caused market fears of a recession to rise and the demand outlook to be dragged down, with the short term downside risk to the oil market picking up significantly.
This trading day investors need to pay attention to the preliminary value of the U.S. May University of Michigan consumer confidence index and the U.S. April import price index; Focus on the Federal Reserve officials speeches, G7 finance ministers and central bank governors meeting; Follow the U.S. debt ceiling negotiations related news.
