"The market has largely priced in the Bank of Japans expectation of raising interest rates every six months, so such a statement alone is unlikely to significantly boost the yens exchange rate. Given market expectations that the central bank will clarify the timing and magnitude of the next rate hike, any stance interpreted as dovish could exacerbate the yens weakness in an environment of overall dollar strength." The market widely expects the Bank of Japan to keep its policy rate unchanged at 1% next week to assess the impact of the previous rate hike.On July 23, the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing released the "2026 Digital Procurement Development Report."

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.
