However, nearly two million Americans have been unable to find work for at least six months. Data from the U.S. Department of Labor shows that in June, the number of long-term unemployed (unemployed for 27 consecutive weeks or more) accounted for 27.3% of the total unemployed, up 4 percentage points from a year ago. This proportion is close to its highest level since the end of 2021. Because the overall unemployment rate remains low, the size of the long-term unemployed population is not yet sufficient to cause a substantial shock to the economy. However, analysts say its ripple effects are accumulating. Preston Mooy, senior economist at Employ America, said, "We havent seen large-scale layoffs in the past few years, so the number of short-term unemployed has remained relatively stable. But at the same time, hiring activity has seen a fairly significant decline." Even if some long-term unemployed people find new jobs, the weak hiring environment means more people are constantly joining the long-term unemployed group, keeping this number consistently high.

During the Asian session, the gold price (XAUUSD) is fluctuating in uncharted area above the crucial barrier of $1,770.00. Amid market uncertainty preceding the US midterm elections, the precious metal has moved sideways. However, the public anticipates a decisive victory for Republicans in the House of Representatives.

 

The US dollar index (DXY) is failing to surpass the immediate barrier of 107.00 as the likelihood of the Federal Reserve (Fed) maintaining its current pace of rate hikes decline. In addition, increased demand for U.S. government bonds has caused rates to plummet. In the meantime, S&P500 futures have continued their rebound following Monday's pessimism.

 

The US Retail Sales statistics will be a focal point moving forward. According to predictions, the economic data is expected to be 0.9% compared to the previous release of 0%. The core Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the month of October decreased to 0.3% from 0.6% in the previous report. The combination of a drop in price growth and a substantial increase in retail sales shows healthy retail demand.
