Initial wage negotiations were encouraging, and the Middle East conflict appears to have had little impact. The decline in the preliminary PMI reflects recent oil supply shocks and a decrease in new orders, which has indeed increased concerns about the outlook. However, the overall data remains above 50, indicating that businesses believe geopolitical risks are temporary. Stubborn core inflation, PMI data, and wage negotiations increase the likelihood of an April rate hike, but the specific timing remains uncertain. The Middle East situation will play a key role in the Bank of Japans decision-making. If the situation stabilizes and there are no signs of a decline in production or consumption, an April rate hike would be more likely.On March 24th, Rio Tinto (RIO.N) CEO Simon Trott revealed in an interview that Rio Tintos total procurement in China reached $4.3 billion last year, and the company expects to continue to achieve breakthroughs beyond that figure.

Trott stated that China remains Rio Tintos largest market and will continue to be the largest consumer of the companys produced materials (ore, aluminum, copper, and lithium).

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%.
