Market Overview
On Wednesday (August 30), spot gold fluctuated in a narrow range during the Asian session, and is currently trading at $1936.12 per ounce. The performance of US job openings data released overnight was weaker than market expectations. The market strengthened the Fed in September to maintain the current interest rates unchanged expectations, and reduced the expectations of another interest rate hike within the year, which helped gold prices rose to nearly three-week highs. The bullish signal on the technical side has increased.
More data showing a slowdown in the U.S. job market would be expected to give gold prices a chance to rise further. The market will focus on the US ADP employment data for August, which comes out later in the evening, and the US non-farm payrolls report for August, which comes out on Friday.
The US dollar and US bond yields weakened sharply overnight. Technically, both short-term bearish signals have strengthened, which is expected to provide gold prices with further upward momentum.
In addition, this trading day will also release USD GDP Growth Rate 2nd Est (Q2) and USD PCE Prices 2nd Est (Q2), so investors need to pay attention to.
U. S. crude oil rose slightly, once hit a new high since August 21 to $81.58 per barrel. Therefore, the previous API data showed that U.S. crude oil inventories plunged by nearly 11.5 million barrels last week, which was much higher than market expectations. In addition, overnight data showed a slowdown in the US job market, with market expectations for a Fed rate hike cooling, increasing the likelihood of a “soft landing” for the US economy. The overnight surge in US stocks also provided confidence for oil bulls. In addition, the Gulf of Mexico hurricane concerns make investors nervous.
A larger-than-expected drop in U.S. crude inventories is positive for the oil market as it indicates firm demand, said Toshitaka Tazawa, an analyst at Fujitomi Securities Co Ltd. “Concerns over Hurricane Idalia have triggered fresh buying,” Tazawa said.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the offshore Gulf of Mexico accounts for approximately 15% of U.S. oil production and 5% of U.S. natural gas production.
Investors will also pay attention to the Crude Oil Inventories data series released by the EIA later in the evening. Of course, the US ADP employment data for August also needs to be watched.
