On April 3, some economists worry that if Trump does not quickly cancel the latest round of tariffs, it may push the US economy into a recession. "If the US government implements these higher tariffs without major exemptions, it will be difficult for the economy to digest this. A recession seems more likely." said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moodys Analytics. Zandi said, "In many ways, the tariffs announced by Trump are even worse than the worst case scenario he envisioned. If they stick to it, I will buckle up and prepare for the impact." Zandi added that on a static basis, tariffs account for nearly 2% of GDP (not considering the impact of tariffs on the economy and taxes), which makes this round of tariffs the largest tax increase since the tax increase used to finance the war during World War II.German Automobile Industry Association VDA: The EU must now speed up and make up its mind on the issue of free trade agreement.On April 3, the Reserve Bank of Australias latest report for the banking industry warned that continued uncertainty in US trade policy "could have a chilling effect on business investment and household spending decisions, and pose a significant headwind to the outlook for global economic activity and inflation."

In the Tokyo session, the gold price (XAU/USD) is oscillating within a small range of $1,625.00-1,628.55. Gold awaits price action from the US dollar index (DXY). The DXY is battling to maintain its position above the immediate resistance level of 113.00. As S&P500 futures have retreated from about 3,645.00, the asset was unable to maintain above the 113.00 barrier.

 

Well, returns on U.S. government bonds are soaring like there is no tomorrow and do not perceive any barrier. Since the subprime crisis, 10-year US Treasury rates have increased to 4.24 percent for the first time. Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers' hawkish remarks have a positive impact on rates.

 

Thursday, Fed Governor Lisa Cook erroneously stated that inflationary pressures are too high and that additional rate hikes are necessary to combat them. She said that additional rate hikes are forthcoming and that the restrictive approach will be maintained.

 

According to the CME FedWatch tool, the probability of a fourth consecutive 75 basis point (bps) rate increase remains over 93%.

 

After testing the $1,642.58–$1,670 range's highest auction area on an hourly scale, the gold price has experienced a precipitous drop. The precious gold is falling toward its two-year low of $1,614.85, which will occur on September 8, 2022. The decline of the 20-period and 50-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) at $1,629.86 and $1,634.46 strengthens the negative filters.

 

In the meantime, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) is bouncing between 40.00 and 60.00, and a change into the negative 20.00 to 40.00 area will spark downward momentum.
