EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Karas: I think it is very important to promote dialogue between Ukraine and Russia.On May 28th, Li Hua, founder of Futu Holdings (03588.HK), responded to investor questions at the companys Q1 2026 results conference, stating that the industry-wide rule adjustments regarding cross-border securities, futures, and fund business for mainland investors issued by regulatory authorities on May 22nd are a unified requirement for the entire industry. The two-year rectification period for mainland clients does not require account closure, but rather restricts deposits and purchases within China. The company will actively embrace regulation and strictly follow the guidelines to steadily advance subsequent compliance work. It is expected that this regulatory rule update will not have a substantial impact on Futus annual customer acquisition target of 800,000. He stated that Futu had previously completely stopped opening accounts for mainland clients and has continuously strengthened account opening reviews, rejecting tens of thousands of non-compliant account opening applications over the past two years. As of the end of Q1 this year, mainland clients with assets accounted for approximately 13%, client assets accounted for approximately 17%, and the corresponding revenue contribution was approximately 20%. The company expects to enter more international markets in the future.EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Karas: Europe will never be a neutral mediator between Russia and Ukraine, because we stand with Ukraine.The US initial jobless claims data for last week, the revised annualized quarterly rate of real GDP for the first quarter, the monthly rate of durable goods orders in April, the monthly rate of personal spending, the monthly and annual rates of the core PCE price index, and Canadas first quarter current account will be released in ten minutes.On May 28th, Bloomberg revealed preliminary images of Apples new digital assistant, a highly anticipated redesign of Siri, expected to be a key highlight of the next generation of iPhone, iPad, and Mac software updates.

US inflation-driven gains in the price of gold (XAU/USD) are fading as the metal declines to $1,790 on Thursday during the opening Tokyo session. The recent decline in the price of precious metals may be related to conflicting worries about the US Federal Reserve's (Fed) upcoming actions as well as Sino-American friction.

 

On Wednesday, the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) fell to 8.5% YoY in July, below the 8.7% consensus and the 9.1% reading from June. According to Reuters, US President Joe Biden stated on Wednesday that there are some indications that inflation may be decreasing after the US released its inflation data. In the coming months, there may be more challenges for us to overcome, Biden continued. US President Biden continues, "We still have work to do, but we're on track."

 

Following the CPI report on Wednesday, traders of futures linked to the Fed's benchmark interest rate reduced their bets on a third consecutive 75-basis-point raise at its policy meeting on September 20-21 and now see a half-point increase as the most likely scenario, according to Reuters.

 

Neel Kashkari, president of the Minneapolis Fed, recently stated that the Fed is "far, far away from declaring success" on inflation. Additionally, the decision-maker stated that he hasn't "seen anything that changes" the need for the Fed to raise its policy rate to 3.9% by year's end and to 4.4% by the end of 2023. Charles Evans, president of the Chicago Fed, said in another place that a recession would likely require unfavorable circumstances to occur. Also labeling inflation "unacceptably" high, Fed's Evans

 

Additionally, according to sources cited by Reuters, US President Biden is reconsidering his China tariff policy in light of Taiwan's response, which put the XAU/USD bulls on the defensive.

 

S&P 500 Futures print modest gains near 4,220 by press time against this backdrop after Wall Street rose and US Treasury yields were largely unchanged the day prior.

 

Moving on, the monthly Producer Price Index (PPI) for July and the weekly US Jobless Claims numbers may amuse gold traders. However, in light of recent risk-negative headlines, special focus should be placed on the qualitative variables.
