This week will usher in a number of Federal Reserve officials for the first time since the June interest rate resolution, the market is expected to be mostly expected to hawkish, to the dollar to provide rebound momentum, put gold prices under pressure. As the 21-day SMA continues to suppress gold prices, the short term gold price shocks bearish. However, concerns about the global economic outlook still give gold prices to provide some safe-haven support.
U.S. crude oil is slightly weaker and is currently trading near $71.25 per barrel, with Iranian crude exports and oil production hitting a new high in 2023. JPMorgan Chase lowered its average estimate for Brent oil prices this year to $81 a barrel from the previous $90.
In the week ended June 14, Russian refining facilities processed 5.49 million barrels of crude oil per day, which was up nearly 194,000 bpd from the previous week and the highest processing rate since the second half of April. The factor was also a drag on oil prices.
In addition, China cut its one-year and five-year loan market offer rates (LPR) less than some had expected, further raising concerns about the outlook for oil demand.
Jun Rong Yeap, market strategist at IG in Singapore, said, “Downside risks to global growth remain a key issue for the oil demand outlook... Risk sentiment remains stable ahead of a series of hawkish Fed speeches this week.”
