JPMorgan Chase lowered its price target for Chevron (CVX.N) from $224 to $190.On July 10th, the National Energy Administration issued the "Action Plan for Energy Conservation and Carbon Reduction in the Energy Sector (2026-2028)". The plan proposes to vigorously promote energy conservation and carbon reduction in thermal power. It calls for the orderly and prudent shutdown of a number of qualified 300 MW and below coal-fired power units, and encourages the construction of replacement units according to the requirements of next-generation coal-fired power. It also promotes the implementation of ultra-critical (supercritical) generational upgrades for a number of 600 MW coal-fired power units. Support is provided for qualified units to undergo zero-carbon and low-carbon fuel blending and carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) retrofits, with a target reduction of approximately 10% in carbon emissions per kilowatt-hour after the retrofits. The plan also calls for the implementation of a number of projects integrating coal-fired power, gas-fired power, and new energy sources, supporting the integration of coal-fired power and new energy sources through methods such as thermal energy storage coupling for peak shaving and integrated peak power generation and transmission, to achieve integrated carbon reduction effects.July 10th – According to the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT), the Satellite Communications Working Group of the Industrial Internet Industry Alliance (hereinafter referred to as the "Satellite Communications Working Group") was officially established in Beijing recently, under the guidance of the Information and Communications Administration of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The Satellite Communications Working Group aims to build a platform for industry exchange and cooperation, accelerate breakthroughs in key core technologies for satellite communications, promote technological innovation and development such as non-terrestrial networks (NTN), and pool resources to jointly cultivate an open and shared satellite communications industry ecosystem, contributing to the construction of a manufacturing powerhouse, a space powerhouse, a cyber powerhouse, and a digital China.July 10th - The China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing (CFLP) released the "2026 China Highway Transport Capacity Development Report" today (July 10th). According to the report, the highway transport market will continue to adjust and optimize in 2025, with the capacity structure accelerating its upgrade towards large-scale, professional, and green development. Enterprises risk resistance and resilience in normalized operations have improved. Survey data shows that fuel-powered vehicles still dominate the current highway freight capacity structure, accounting for approximately 50%, but new energy vehicles have formed an irreversible substitution trend in specific scenarios. Among the surveyed enterprises, the penetration rate of new energy trucks is 44.4%. Of the enterprises that have already purchased new energy vehicles, 37.5% chose to "continue to expand their new energy vehicle fleet," and 37.5% chose to "maintain their existing scale."The main Shanghai silver futures contract surged 4.00% intraday, currently trading at 14,805.00 yuan/kg.

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%.
