Hong Kong Stock Exchange: Tencent Holdings (00700.HK) will repurchase 1.1 million shares for cancellation on May 21, 2026, for a total consideration of HK$500.6 million.On May 21, Goldman Sachs stated in a report that Nvidia (NVDA.O) outperformed expectations in its first fiscal quarter ending in April, with strong guidance and optimized capital allocation proving particularly strong. The firm believes that the sustainability of capital expenditures provides a clear path for Nvidia to continue outperforming the market. Goldman Sachs raised its earnings per share forecast for Nvidia by an average of 6% to reflect higher revenue expectations and a lower-than-expected tax rate (consistent with the companys guidance); and raised its price target from $250 to $285, maintaining a "buy" rating. Given Nvidias strong quarterly results and guidance far exceeding market expectations (despite already optimistic market sentiment prior to the earnings release), Goldman Sachs expects Nvidias stock price to rise moderately. Goldman Sachs noted that prior to the earnings release, investor expectations had already risen due to hyperscale cloud service providers raising their capital expenditure forecasts. However, Goldman Sachs believes that Nvidias second-quarter guidance still exceeds these already revised expectations.The European Commission states that the downward trend in long-term unemployment is nearing its end.

Forecast for Gold: XAUUSD retreats from $1800 on rising US yields

While it had been trending upwards, gold's daily performance took a sour turn and it is now trading below $1800. During the American session, the XAUUSD reached a high of $1799 before turning down and heading below $1785.

 

Despite predictions of a 0.2% monthly increase, data released on Thursday indicated that the US Producer Price Index decreased by 0.5% in July, bringing the annual rate down to 9.8%. The Consumer Price Index did not move in July, contrary to predictions of a 0.2% increase, according to data released on Wednesday. The US currency fell because of the inflation rate going down.

 

Investors continue to count on a rate hike of 50 basis points or more from the Federal Reserve at their September meeting. U.S. rates have risen despite though a peak in US inflation is more likely, which is surprising. Both the US 10-year yield (now at 2.83%) and the 2-year yield (3.20%) are at their highest levels in nearly a week.

 

Increased US yields capped gold's gains. The inability of the XAU/USD pair to maintain a price over $1800 despite the recent US data has fueled skepticism that the rally will continue. Weekly support is found around $1774, and the immediate support is at $1785. Additional gains appear likely if the price of gold can consolidate over $1800.
