A Bloomberg survey shows that about two-thirds of respondents expect Lagarde to serve until her term expires next October and not leave office prematurely. Speculation about Lagardes potential early departure began last year when she was considered a likely candidate to head the World Economic Forum. In February of this year, media reports suggested she might leave early, which she did not explicitly deny, reigniting the speculation. Since then, Lagarde has publicly stated that she might play a marginal role in French politics. France will hold presidential elections next spring.On July 16, at a regular press conference, Ministry of Commerce spokesperson He Yadong responded to questions regarding the progress of resolving the Nexperia semiconductor dispute, stating that since the establishment of an open and pragmatic comprehensive cooperative partnership between China and the Netherlands over the past decade, bilateral economic and trade cooperation has continuously deepened.

Gold Price Prediction: XAU / USD will continue to fluctuate above $1,900 despite a decline in US Inflation

Gold price (XAU / USD) is not in danger despite U.S. inflation figures meeting expectations. Since Monday, the precious metal has been fluctuating continuously between $1,895 and $1,913. The release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) failed to produce a significant reaction in the Gold price; however, the upside bias appears to be solidified as wagers on lesser rate increases from the Federal Reserve (Fed) have increased.

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) is protecting the critical support at 103.50, but it appears vulnerable to further losses as investors' risk appetite has dramatically increased. As market participants purchased S&P500 futures in response to higher odds of a smaller rate hike from Fed chair Jerome Powell, a likely recession in the US economy was postponed, signaling an uptick in optimism.

 

Contrary to the risk-on sentiment, demand for US Treasury bonds remained weak, causing 10-year US Treasury yields to rise above 3.68 percent.

 

The headline As anticipated, the US CPI increased by 0.4% on a monthly basis, and the annual figure decreased from 6.4% to 6.0%. In addition, the core CPI, which excludes crude and food prices, decreased to 5.5% from 5.6% previously. The Fed appears to be pleased with the persistence of a declining trend in US inflation.

 

In the future, investors will closely monitor the US Retail Sales (Feb) data. Monthly Retail Sales data is anticipated to decline by 0.3% compared to the previous release of a 3.0% increase. This indicates that the consumer spending rebound is over and the Fed is on course to achieve its inflation target of 2%.
