On August 21st, Bank of America analysts wrote that European stocks will underperform due to the uncertainty surrounding the monetization path of artificial intelligence. The analysts stated that increased competition from China and the US will force AI model makers to offer more competitive pricing, potentially dragging down previously high profit expectations. Rising borrowing costs will also weigh on corporate earnings. European stock pricing already reflects expectations of continued AI spending boom, but a reversal in AI momentum will weaken this optimism.

However, it would be disappointing if Warsh continued to avoid providing forward guidance. They stated, "The market will expect stability from Warsh, but the risk of disappointment remains high." Strategists believe Warsh may try to improve his communication style, but forward guidance may still be insufficient. "The market will be looking for clues about its response mechanisms and a reaffirmation of the Feds ability to combat inflation." Strategists anticipate Warshs speech will be gradual rather than disruptive.Both WTI and Brent crude oil prices fell slightly by about $0.50 in the short term, to $86.32 and $92.07 per barrel, respectively.

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%.
