This powerfully demonstrates that Abu Dhabi has taken a bolder approach than any of its Persian Gulf neighbors in the face of supply disruptions caused by the conflict with Iran. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) monthly report, the UAEs average daily production in June was 4.1 million barrels. This figure surpasses the peak production of 4 million barrels per day reached in 2020 during its brief price war with Saudi Arabia over OPEC+ policy. Abu Dhabis aggressive strategy has become increasingly apparent since the outbreak of the conflict, ranging from utilizing its vast fleet to chartering more vessels controlled by South Koreas Sinokor Group (which currently operates the worlds largest fleet of very large crude carriers). Many of these vessels operate in a "shadow" manner, turning off their digital transponders to transport crude oil out of the Persian Gulf undetected. The UAE announced its withdrawal from OPEC at the end of April to escape the organizations production restrictions and pursue its expansion plans. This strong resumption of production largely occurred before the surge of merchant ships in the Strait of Hormuz this week.

Forecast for the Gold Price: The XAU/USD pair continues to struggle below $1,850 as investors await FOMC minutes

After clearing the $1,800.00 barrier, the gold price (XAU/USD) has leveled off around $1,844.00 in the early European session. The precious metal continues to struggle to surpass the important resistance level of $1,850. Following the release of United States ISM Manufacturing PMI data, the gold price is anticipated to demonstrate a significant move.

 

S&P500 futures tried a recovery rise in the Asian session following a two-day decline, but require more filters to draw a responsive purchasing action, indicating cautious optimism. The US Dollar Index (DXY) is fighting to hold above the 104.20 threshold as 10-year US Treasury yields decline below 3.73 percent.

 

The ISM Manufacturing PMI is likely to decline further to 48.5, from 49.0 in November, according to forecasts. The Federal Reserve (Fed) could be compelled to scale down its policy tightening measures as a result of weakening manufacturing activity in the United States, which are anticipated to herald a further decline in inflation estimates. Thursday's release of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) minutes will provide investors with greater insight into the prospects for monetary policy.
