July 12th - The clearing out of securities brokers may be accelerating. Industry sources indicate varying degrees of enforcement regarding broker elimination. Some local bureaus emphasize standardized elimination processes but lack a unified timetable; regulators will subsequently review the compliance of these processes. Data shows that the number of brokers in the securities industry has decreased by nearly 12,000 since 2025. As early as 2024, regulators conveyed that securities firms should adapt to the transformation towards wealth management and gradually eliminate brokers. Currently, some leading securities firms have largely completed this process, while smaller firms still have a significant number of brokers. Some securities firms have stated that they will accelerate the elimination process by combining leading practices, regulatory guidance, and industry trends, but will adopt a stable approach, such as not renewing contracts upon expiration and performance-based layoffs. They will also simultaneously adjust traditional commission-dependent models to align with the wealth management transformation. During the elimination process, qualified brokers can be transferred to formal positions such as wealth managers or investment advisors. Regarding potential customer attrition, industry insiders believe that given the overall industry is in a broker elimination phase, the overall impact of customer loss will be minimal, with only some regions potentially experiencing minor disruptions.Iraqi government spokesperson: The Iraqi prime minister will sign several oil and gas memorandums of understanding during his visit to Washington.Iraqi government spokesperson: The Iraqi prime minister will travel to Washington on Monday.According to a Wall Street Journal survey, the probability of a U.S. recession has fallen to 25%, down from 33% in April.According to a Wall Street Journal survey, economists expect U.S. GDP to grow by 2.1% this year, up from 2% in the April survey.

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%.
