This means that El Niño is still developing and may break historical records. Tan Jing, a senior engineer at the National Marine Environmental Forecasting Center, said that El Niño usually lasts 9 to 12 months, with peak SST generally occurring from November to February of the following year. This spring, the abnormally warm seawater first appeared off the coast of Peru and then gradually expanded westward. Monitoring by the National Marine Environmental Forecasting Center found that the equatorial central and eastern Pacific Ocean officially entered an El Niño state in May, and the warming rate has accelerated significantly since then. More alarmingly, the current intensity of the abnormal SST in the equatorial central and eastern Pacific Ocean has exceeded the levels of the super El Niño events of 1997-1998 and 2015-2016, and its development momentum is also more rapid.

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%.
