Takase Tomoaki "Weekly Gold Market Outlook" November 7, 2022 issue
Tamaki Takao, the President and CEO of Investment Daily Co., Ltd., and a master of cycle analysis, writes a weekly report on gold market outlook.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last week featured multiple big events, including the FOMC and employment statistics, and the market reacted accordingly. At the FOMC, Chair Powell suggested the possibility of slowing the pace of rate hikes at the next December meeting, but noted that the "time lag" between the real economy and monetary policy is "very uncertain," and indicated that attention should be paid to October and November CPI as well as the October PCE price index.
In the employment report released on the 4th, nonfarm payrolls rose by 261,000, exceeding market expectations of 200,000. The unemployment rate rose to 3.7% (consensus 3.6%), up 0.2 percentage point from the previous 3.5%. Job gains slowed from 315,000 in September (revised).
Ultimately, the market results at the end of last week were a dollar decline and gold rise.
The 10-year yield stayed above 4%, but the notable rise in the 2-year yield suggests a possibility of slowing pace of future Fed rate hikes, casting doubt on that view.
