Markets entered the week in risk-on mode following last Friday's softer-than-expected US jobs data, which reinforced expectations that the Fed's next move will be a rate cut — though timing remains fiercely debated. Equities rallied, with the S&P 500 adding 0.68% to push back toward all-time highs, while the tech-heavy NASDAQ outperformed on renewed AI sector momentum.
Gold's breakout is attracting significant attention. XAU/USD pushed above $2,340 as a weakening dollar, persistent central bank buying (particularly from China and India), and geopolitical uncertainty in Eastern Europe created a textbook three-factor setup for the precious metal. Our commodities team sees the $2,400 level as the next meaningful resistance; a close above it would open the door to $2,500 before year-end.
This week's key risk event is Wednesday's FOMC Minutes release at 18:00 UTC. Markets will parse the document for any shift in the committee's language on inflation persistence and the appropriate timeline for rate cuts. Any hawkish surprise could trigger a sharp dollar rally and equity pullback — keep position sizes modest going into the release.
