Israeli military: We have detected Iran launching a new type of missile.On March 8th, Wang Yi stated that President Xi Jinpings proposal to build a community with a shared future for mankind demonstrates the vision and broad-mindedness of a leader of a major power, answering the question of our time: where is humanity headed? It aims to tell the world that humanitys enemies are not each other, but war, poverty, hunger, and injustice. Overcoming these challenges cannot be achieved through individual efforts or by remaining isolated; it requires unity, cooperation, and global solidarity. Isolation leads to helplessness, while unity brings strength. People around the world are increasingly recognizing the contemporary value and power of the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind, which acts like a lighthouse illuminating humanitys path forward.On March 8, Wang Yi, in response to a question about building a community with a shared future for mankind, said that the Chinese people have always had a vision of a world where all under heaven are interconnected and pursue a world of great harmony. The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the rise of a great power with 1.4 billion people will never replicate the old path of great power rivalry and expansion. Instead, we will unswervingly follow the path of peaceful development and promote all countries to jointly pursue peaceful development, building a world of lasting peace, universal security, common prosperity, openness and inclusiveness, and a clean and beautiful environment.On March 8th, Wang Yi stated that Taiwan has been Chinese territory since ancient times, and it has never been, is, or will ever become a "country." Taiwans return to China was a result of the Chinese peoples victory in the War of Resistance Against Japan and also a fruit of victory in World War II. A series of international legal documents, including the Cairo Declaration, the Potsdam Declaration, the Japanese Instrument of Surrender, and UN General Assembly Resolution 2758, have firmly established Taiwans status. Any attempt to create "two Chinas" or "one China, one Taiwan" internationally is doomed to failure.On March 8th, Wang Yi stated that the Taiwan issue is Chinas internal affair and the core of Chinas core interests; this red line cannot be crossed or trampled upon. We will never allow anyone or any force to separate Taiwan, which was liberated more than 80 years ago, from China again. The international community has reached an overwhelming consensus on upholding the one-China principle. The historical process of resolving the Taiwan issue and achieving the complete reunification of the motherland is unstoppable. Those who follow this path will prosper, and those who oppose it will perish.

June Gold Buyers May Face Difficulties at $1987.60

The market's strength is being fueled by demand for a hedge against rising inflation during the Russia-Ukraine conflict, lessening pressure from expectations of an aggressive US interest rate hike, and the US Dollar's intraday reversal top.

 

June Comex gold futures are currently trading at $1982.70, up $6.60 or 0.33 percent from their previous close. The SPDR Gold Shares ETF (GLD) is currently trading at $184.66, up $0.89 or 0.48 percent from its previous close.

 

Gold is regarded as an inflation hedge and a hedge against geopolitical concerns. However, higher interest rates in the United States would increase the opportunity cost of storing non-yielding bullion and strengthen the dollar against which it is valued.

 

However, the price action shows that gold buyers are seeking insurance against inflation and are not very concerned about opportunity costs at the moment. Despite all of the Fed's hawkish rhetoric and anticipation for aggressive rate hikes, we have yet to witness a shift in the direction of inflation.

 

Gold is likely to remain underpinned for the foreseeable future as long as the inflation arrow continues to point upward and the Ukraine war continues.

Technical Analysis of the Daily Swing Chart

According to the daily swing chart, the primary trend is upward. A move over the intraday high of $1985.50 reaffirms the uptrend. A break of $1916.20 will revert the major trend to the downside.

 

On the upside, the retracement zone between $1987.60 and $2009.90 is the nearest objective.

 

On the downside, the long-term Fibonacci level at $1958.70 serves as the initial support, followed by the short-term 50% level at $1932.90.

Technical Forecast for the Daily Swing Chart

The June Comex gold futures market's path through Wednesday's close is likely to be dictated by trader reaction to the 50% level at $1987.60.

Scenario of Bullishness

A sustained move above $1987.60 will signal that buyers are present. This could provide the necessary momentum for a test of the Fibonacci level at $2009.90. This is a trigger point for an upside acceleration.

Scenario of the Bear

A persistent decline below $1987.60 indicates the existence of sellers. They intend to attempt the formation of a secondary lower top. This, if successful, might result in a break into $1958.70.
