Indian government: Diesel sales in India rose 4.7% year-on-year in November, while gasoline sales rose 2.6% year-on-year.On December 6th, European Central Bank (ECB) Governing Council member Rehn stated that the medium-term inflation risks in the Eurozone are slightly tilted to the downside. He cited "relatively low energy prices, the appreciation of the euro, and expectations of slower inflation in the services and wage sectors" as downside factors. Factors pushing up inflation include "potential impacts on supply chains from geoeconomic fragmentation" and a stronger-than-expected economic rebound that could lower the savings rate. Rehn said, "We need to pay attention to both upside and downside risks." He refuted suggestions from some colleagues that another rate cut should be subject to high thresholds. Rehn stated, "We shouldnt impose any unnecessary constraints on our monetary policy, whether high or low thresholds. Its best to follow our strategy and be consistent in word and deed. I believe we will." When asked about ECB President Lagardes recent comments that the central bank is in a "good but not fixed" position regarding interest rates, Rehn agreed.December 6th - According to the Gaza Strip Media Office, since the ceasefire agreement took effect this year, Gaza has experienced a severe gas shortage. Originally, 660 gas delivery trucks were scheduled to enter Gaza, but only 104 have been approved so far, representing only about 16% of the agreed demand. This shortfall directly affects 2.4 million residents of Gaza, impacting essential sectors such as homes, hospitals, bakeries, and public kitchens. Currently, gas in Gaza is allocated based on the actual number of registered households to ensure fairness. Each household is allocated an 8kg gas cylinder per cycle, and can only collect it once per cycle. 252,000 households have already received their quotas, but the system targets approximately 470,000 households. Due to the continued shortage, each allocation cycle takes at least three months to complete the distribution to all registered households.Ukrainian President Zelensky: He spoke by phone with NATO Secretary General Rutte.Market news: The Indian government is preparing to take action against IndiGo, or may seek to remove IndiGos CEO.

Gold Price Prediction: XAU/USD stabilizes solidly above $1,750 as DXY retreats in front of Jackson Hole

During the Asian trading session, the gold price (XAU/USD) reached a fresh four-day high of $1,756.77. Prior to the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium, the US dollar index (DXY) is experiencing a self-off, which is favorable for the precious metal. The DXY has showed a gloomy initial trading session and has fallen to approach Tuesday's low of 108.36.

 

The foreign exchange (FX) market is anticipated to continue volatile as investors receive contradictory comments from analysts regarding Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole speech. Undoubtedly, the data indicate that price pressures are close to peak, and the loss in private sector activity causes the Fed to decrease the rate at which it is increasing interest rates.

 

However, the inflation rate is above 8%, and the Fed's onerous task of raising interest rates will continue for some time.

 

In addition, investors will focus on the Core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) data for the second quarter, which is anticipated to remain unchanged at 4.4%.

 

On an hourly scale, gold prices are seeking to break above the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement at $1,758.40 (set from Monday's low of $1,727.87 to August 10's high of $1,807.93). At $1,756.20, the precious gold has pierced the 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA). In addition, the 50-day exponential moving average (EMA) at $1,748.46 is rising, adding to the upward filters. In addition, the Relative Strength Index (14) has moved into the bullish zone of 60.00-80.00, indicating further gain.
