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 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.
