The European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre reported that a 4.9-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Northern California, USA, at a depth of 10.0 kilometers.August 29th - US President Trump: New York Governor Kathy Hozul supports Canada, not the United States, and Canada has been taking advantage of New York for years, especially during her tenure. Can you imagine her saying she doesnt respect or recognize "American Lakes"? This is why the "stupid Democrats" are so harmful to our country. Vote for Bruce Blackman as Governor of New York. He has my complete and utter support and will never let you down!On August 29th, CICC pointed out that Federal Reserve Chairman Warshs speech at Jackson Hole was hawkish: he acknowledged that inflation remained high, clarified that interest rates would remain the primary policy tool, and stated that he would "act as needed." He also cited economic resilience, stable employment, and loose financial conditions as evidence that current policy risks are more skewed towards inflation. He also attributed the 65-month period of excessive inflation to the central bank itself, correcting his ambiguous statement in July that "the market should raise rates in place of the Fed." CICC believes this speech helped rebuild the Feds credibility, and the market began trading on the marginal repair of policy credibility afterward. In the long term, Warsh still maintains that AI may reshape the economic and policy framework and continues to push for reforms such as reducing forward guidance. For the market, this statement increased the probability of a Fed rate hike this year, but even so, it is not necessarily purely negative. The market currently does not lack liquidity, but rather policy discipline and predictability. As long as inflation can be suppressed in a timely manner, it will actually benefit the market in the medium term.August 29th - According to the latest data released by the Nepalese police, as of 6:00 AM local time on the 29th, the death toll from flash floods in northern Nepal has risen to 616. Flash floods struck the Rasuwa district in northern Nepal on the 26th. On the 26th, the Nepalese government decided, in accordance with relevant laws, to designate some local administrative units in the affected areas as disaster crisis zones for a period of three months, in order to concentrate relief resources, strengthen personnel management, and advance post-disaster recovery work.On August 29, U.S. Central Command Commander Brad Cooper stated on August 28 that approximately 50,000 U.S. troops are currently deployed in the Middle East, many of whom are enforcing the naval blockade against Iran. He also stated that since the blockade was reinstated in mid-July, more than 20 warships have been maintaining it.

On Tuesday, gold prices were under pressure near important support levels as the dollar rallied from recent losses, while copper prices sustained recent drops amidst rising concerns about a slowdown in global economic growth.


Spot gold prices rose 0.2% to $1,652.10 per ounce by 19:23 ET, while December gold futures also rose 0.2%. (23:23 GMT). Gold prices decreased by 0.6% on Monday as the dollar recouped previous losses.


Despite increasing uncertainty surrounding the future course of U.S. monetary policy, gold and the U.S. dollar remained within the limited trading ranges recorded in the previous weeks. While forecasts of a probable dovish turn by the Federal Reserve boosted gold prices slightly last week, markets continue to price in a nearly 100 percent chance of a 75 basis point rate hike by the Fed in November.


After three consecutive days of decline, the dollar stabilized on Monday, as U.S. Treasury yields remained close to their highest levels since the 2008 financial crisis.


Rising U.S. interest rates weighed heavily on gold this year, as the prospective cost of holding the yellow metal rose. This year, gold's appeal as a safe haven and inflation hedge has diminished significantly.


In the foreseeable future, bullion prices are projected to be under pressure as a result of rising U.S. interest rates.


Copper prices were subdued on Tuesday after plummeting in the previous session, as a series of dismal economic indicators posted on Monday signaled a bleak outlook for global copper demand.


Copper futures stayed unchanged at $3.4325 per pound after falling 1.4% in the prior session.


Even though China's copper imports surged in September due to increasing infrastructure spending in recent months, markets remained cautious due to the country's recent political turmoil.


President Xi Jinping's consolidation of power at the National Congress sparked fears of a new assault on the country's wealthiest enterprises and businessmen, which precipitated a disastrous sell-off in Chinese markets.


China's third-quarter GDP figures beat analyst forecasts, but fell far short of the Communist Party's target.


Copper's outlook remains bleak as a result of Jinping's desire to maintain the economically damaging zero-COVID policy, which also fueled concerns about China's growth prospects.


Due to the worldwide economic slump, the red metal is also experiencing considerable difficulties. The economic superpower certainly contracted in the third quarter, according to weak data from the Eurozone.
