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.

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.

Forecast for Silver Price: XAG/USD is rising quickly and is approaching the $20.00 mark

Silver price recovers around the 50-day exponential moving average and advances towards a daily high of $19.69 on Wednesday after the US Labor Department reported that August PPI was in line with predictions of diminishing inflationary pressures on the producer side. Therefore, the XAG/USD is trading at $19.61, 1.86% higher than its initial price.

 

Before Wall Street opened, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) of the United States reported that the Producer Price Index (PPI) for August decreased by 0.1%, in line with expectations, while the year-over-year figure fell to 8.7%, less than the 9.8% reported in July. Meanwhile, the so-called core PPI, which excludes volatile goods, increased by 0.4% month-over-month and 7.3% year.

 

In the meantime, the US Dollar Index, a measure of the dollar's value against a basket of six currencies, ended Wednesday's session down 0.15 percent, at 109.648, weighed down by US Treasury yields, particularly the 10-year benchmark note rate, which remained unchanged throughout the day at approximately 3.404%.

 

The US Dollar Index reflects the aforementioned by declining by 0.09% and falling below the 110.000 barrier. Similarly, the US 10-year benchmark note rate exhibits signs of weariness, remaining flat at approximately 3.414%.

 

The fact that US 10-year TIPS yields, a proxy for actual yields, rose by only one basis point to 0.939% was a further factor supporting the white metal price.

 

On Thursday, the US economic calendar will contain jobless claims, retail sales, and the New York and Philadelphia Fed Manufacturing Indices, which will serve as a precursor to the ISM report in October.

 

The daily XAG/USD chart depicts the white metal as neutral to bearishly biased. Nonetheless, if silver buyers recapture the $20,000 threshold, this might pave the way for a test of a four-month-old downslope trendline near $20.20 prior to reaching the 100-day EMA at $20.39. A breach of the latter will reveal the cycle high from August 15 at $20.87, ahead of the psychological milestone of $21.00.
