On August 28th, during Meituans Q2 earnings call, CEO Wang Xing shared Meituans internationalization progress: "Keeta began trial operations in the Saudi market in September 2024, and achieved profitability in July of this year, taking only 22 months." He also stated that Keeta will focus on operations in existing markets in the second half of this year, paying attention to improving business operational efficiency. Meanwhile, he remains confident in the long-term potential of the Brazilian market.On August 28th, Allianz Chief Advisor El-Erian stated, "Federal Reserve Chairman Warsh is about to deliver his first Jackson Hole keynote address. At this crucial moment, he faces a delicate challenge: how to respond to the highly diverse expectations of the market and various sectors. On one hand, some hope he will continue the tradition of previous Fed chairs, providing forward-looking guidance while elaborating on the current policy response mechanism—how the Fed will make policy decisions in response to economic data and changing circumstances. On the other hand, others hope he will return to the original long-term strategic positioning of this unique meeting. This means focusing more on the increasing and more complex domestic economic and policy issues in the context of profound structural changes driven by technological innovation and geoeconomics. Balancing these two expectations is no easy task. This balance is not only difficult to maintain but also almost certain to satisfy everyone. Meanwhile, policy factors outside the Fed further increase the difficulty of decision-making. However, Warshs speech will undoubtedly provide an important window for the outside world to gain a deeper understanding of the new Fed chairs policy philosophy and leadership style. Personally, I hope his speech will focus more on long-term structural issues, especially given the significant disagreements within the FOMC."On August 28th, the Securities Association of China and the Asset Management Association of China, based on their previous practical experience and research findings, jointly drafted the "Securities Company Trading Information System Access Management Standards (Trial Implementation)".

Gold price prediction: XAU/USD slips to $1,690 on Fed forecasts; US retail sales expected

Gold price (XAU/USD) has adopted a downward trend after falling below Wednesday's minimum of $1,693.67. The precious metal is falling nearing $1,690.00 as bears take control of rising probabilities for a massive Federal Reserve (Fed) rate hike in the near future.

 

Earlier symptoms of weariness have dissipated as a result of Tuesday's higher-than-anticipated US Consumer Price Index (CPI) report. Despite declining gasoline costs, the headline US CPI was announced at 8.3%, which was higher than the 8.2% prediction. The investment community believed that inflation had begun to respond to the Federal Reserve's (Fed) raising interest rates and that a succession of declining price pressures would soon enable the Fed to adopt a 'neutral' stance.

 

However, a US inflation report that exceeded forecasts demonstrates that the road to a neutral monetary policy is far from complete. Moreover, predictions of a one percent rate increase are currently ascendant.

 

In today's session, the US Retail Sales report will be of paramount importance. The economic data estimates do not indicate any improvement in retail demand. This could be the outcome of a fall in consumer confidence in the economy.

 

The gold price has experienced a precipitous decline after demonstrating a textbook-style test and the collapse of a consolidation pattern. On an hourly scale, the consolidation formed within the region of $1,697.12-1,709.62. At $1,698.70, the yellow metal is trading below the 20-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which increases the downside filters.
