On November 25th, Futures News reported that crude oil prices have been trending weakly recently.

The market anticipates that a European countrys successful later negotiations will ease oil supply, thus negatively impacting the oil market from a fundamental perspective. Zhuochuang Information predicts that the Russia-Ukraine peace talks are currently in a crucial stage, with Europe revising the final version of the peace agreement after its participation. Furthermore, with the resumption of some economic data releases, expectations for a December rate cut by the Federal Reserve are gradually increasing. These factors have contributed to the continued wide fluctuations in oil prices.The Federation of Automobile Manufacturers of Thailand: Thailands automobile production in October increased by 14.17% year-on-year (compared to 4.77% in September).On November 25th, BOCOM International issued a report stating that Minisos (09896.HK) third-quarter results were largely in line with expectations.

In the Tokyo session, the gold price (XAU/USD) has fallen below the immediate resistance of $1,870.00. The precious metal has broken through the consolidation formed in the band of $1,870.00-1,881.50 as demand for US government bonds deteriorates ahead of the speech by Federal Reserve (Fed) chairman Jerome Powell on Tuesday.

 

The 10-year US Treasury yields have risen beyond 3.54 percent, dampening risk appetite. Meanwhile, S&P500 futures have become volatile following a sell-off late in Monday's session, signaling caution in establishing positions in risky assets. The US Dollar Index (DXY) is anticipated to attempt a break above the immediate resistance of 103.00 into the auction area.

 

Investors anticipate Fed Powell's speech for fresh cues, as it will provide a head start for the entirety of CY2023. Despite a sharp reduction in December wage inflation, some Fed policymakers continue to endorse a terminal rate prediction of 5.00-5.25%.

 

Mary Daly, president of the San Francisco Fed Bank, argued that interest rates between 5% and 5.25 percent are fair. Also, the president of the Atlanta Federal Reserve bank, Raphael Bostic, anticipates an interest rate peak in the range of 5% to 5.25 percent and the continuation of higher interest rates through CY2023.
