On July 7th, Charu Chanana, Chief Investment Strategist at Saxo Bank, stated in a report that SK Hynixs upcoming ADR listing will be a test of investor sentiment following the recent pullback in the memory chip sector. Despite Samsungs statement that it expects another record quarter driven by strong demand, Samsung Electronics fell 6.9% and SK Hynix fell 6.1% on Tuesday. SK Hynixs ADR listing "brings a significant amount of new AI-related stock supply to the market, at a time when investors are questioning whether AI infrastructure stocks have been overvalued." Meanwhile, SK Hynixs fundraising to expand production capacity could shift the memory chip market from a shortage to a surplus. Strong demand for SK Hynixs ADRs would indicate that global investors still want more direct exposure to AI memory chips, while weak demand suggests that enthusiasm for AI is becoming more selective.Total Energy CEO: Following the events in Hormuz, if we want to export oil from Iraq, we must go through Syria.

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.
