Siemssen stated that in recent months, the Eurozone composite PMI has risen faster than other leading indicators and improved faster than actual economic development. The interest rate strategist said: "Therefore, our economists expect todays data to be below market consensus. Although this is unlikely to revive expectations of an ECB rate cut, it should provide further support for German government bonds."The Hang Seng Tech Index fell more than 1%, Apple-related stocks were sluggish in the afternoon, and AAC Technologies (02018.HK) fell more than 13% after the results.On August 21, Swiss exports to the United States grew slightly in July, achieving the second consecutive month of expansion, but then Trump unexpectedly imposed a 39% tariff on Switzerland.

Gold Price Forecast: XAU/USD struggles around $1,800 ahead of ISM Services PMI data

In the early Tokyo session, the gold price (XAU/USD) is under intense pressure to overcome the round-level barrier of $1,800.00. The precious metal is highly projected to display additional gains ahead and may extend towards a fresh three-month high at $1,824.63 as the bullish US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) failed to fade the risk appetite theme.

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) is seeking to re-test the previous week's low around 104.40 as market investors believe that good employment growth in November is inadequate to offset forecasts of a slowdown in the Federal Reserve's interest rate hike pace (Fed). In addition, rates on 10-year US Treasuries have fallen further below 3.50 percent and are receiving no intermediate buffer.

 

Monday's publication of United States ISM Services data is the economic indicator that investors are anticipating for additional guidance. The expected economic data is 55.6, up from 54.4 in the previous release. Apart from that, the catalyst which will effect Gold prices is the ISM Services New Orders Index data. The economic statistics is anticipated to rise to 58.5, which shows healthy demand from households and may provide a cushion against future inflation.

 

After a drop to roughly its November 15 high of $1,777.32, the hourly demand for gold has increased significantly. The yellow metal is aiming for a three-month high of approximately $1,805.00. The Gold price has surpassed the 20-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $1,795.90 after sensing support from the 50-period EMA near $1,790.00, indicating a shift in the short-term trend toward the upside.
