Market Overview
In the Asian session on Tuesday (April 25), spot gold rose slightly, once touching the 2000 mark. At present, its trading is near $1993.56/ounce. Overnight data shows that manufacturing activity in Texas shrank in April. The market's expectation of the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut within the year is rising. The dollar index fell to a new low for more than a week. The market's concern about the US debt crisis is rising. The yield of US bonds fell to a new low for more than a week, providing support for gold prices.
US crude oil trading around 78.64 US dollars per barrel; Oil prices rose nearly 1% on Monday, holding onto the key support of the 100 day moving average, as investors were optimistic that China's holiday tourism would boost fuel demand in the world's largest oil importing country. At the same time, the European Union Council increased the risk of geopolitical tensions by implementing a seventh round of sanctions against Iran.
However, due to a decrease of over $100 billion in deposits at First Republic Bank in the first quarter, the bank experienced a significant drop of over 20% after market hours. The weakness of US stock index futures dragged down Asian stock markets and still provided some safe haven support for the US dollar. Investors still need to be wary of the risk of a rebound in the US dollar, which may suppress the trend of gold prices in the short term, although a decline in the stock market will also provide some safe haven support for gold prices.
On this trading day, we need to pay attention to the annual total number of new home sales in the United States after the quarterly adjustment in March and the performance of the consumer confidence index of the American Chamber of Commerce in April, and pay attention to the relevant news of geographical situation.
