He stated that Ukrainian forces might attempt to attack and destroy the dam again. If this were to happen, several streets in riverbanks and settlements near Kharkiv Oblast would be flooded, impacting the lives of approximately 1,000 residents.

The French National Assembly is currently debating a draft budget that targets 4.7% GDP growth, but Prime Minister Jean-Claude Le Cornu has said the ultimate target should be within 5%, and he is seeking a compromise with opposition lawmakers. "It is absolutely necessary to keep the deficit below 3% between now and 2029, which would imply a maximum deficit of 4.8% next year," Villeroy de Villeroy said in an interview with La Croix. He also stated that France faces the risk of "progressive suffocation" from debt and that additional deficit spending will fail to stimulate economic growth. According to calculations by the Bank of France, if debt uncertainty is reduced, a 1% reduction in the household savings rate would boost economic growth by 0.4%. However, Villeroy de Villeroy stated that the French economy has strong momentum this year and growth will be "at least" as strong as the Banks forecast of 0.7%.

Gold Price Prediction: XAU/USD Weakness Dependent on $1,920 Breakout and Fed Decision - Confluence Detector

Gold price (XAU/USD) maintains a defensive stance near $1,930, posting modest gains ahead of Monday's European session, as traders begin the crucial week including the Federal Reserve's (Fed) monetary policy and the January US employment report. China's return after a one-week holiday might bolster the cautious optimism of XAU/USD traders, as could prospects for a dovish raise from the Fed and disappointing Nonfarm Payrolls data (NFP).

 

Notably, a slower start to a pivotal week with a high economic data load also appears to underpin the Gold prices' corrective rebound from a short-term major support confluence. However, the metal's short-term movements depend on the Fed's ability to push back the dovish inclination despite the confirmation of the impending policy shift.
