August 13th - According to sources, the Truth API data service launched by Trumps media company is facing resistance from some trading firms. While some firms have already signed up to use the service, some, including Hudson Rivers and Citadel Securities, have stated they are unwilling to pay for it, arguing it is not a necessary condition for trading operations. The sources requested anonymity due to the non-public nature of the information. Analysts point out that existing insider trading regulations do not explicitly cover the president using his media platforms to release information that could affect the market, or selling access to such information to the market more quickly. Karen Woody, a professor at Washington and Lee University School of Law, stated that past regulatory systems did not presuppose that a sitting president might engage in such practices. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Paul Atkins previously stated in an interview that the SEC is monitoring the Truth API data flow.On August 13th, AI chipmaker Cerebras reported second-quarter revenue of $210 million, a 103% year-over-year increase.

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.
