June 17th - According to a Wall Street Journal survey of economists, 10 out of 12 believe the Philippine central bank is likely to raise its policy rate by 25 basis points to 4.75% on Thursday. Economists at Capital Economics noted in a report that the Philippines is one of the Asian economies most severely affected by the energy shock, and inflation has exceeded the central banks target range in recent months. The firm added that while inflation concerns may prompt the central bank to raise rates, it will also consider economic weakness in its decision-making. Two economists predict a larger rate hike, reaching 50 basis points. HSBC analyst Aris Dacanay believes the rate hike could be even larger given the central banks price stability target.Gold rose in early Asian trading on June 17th. Zaheer Anwari, CEO of The Revacy Fund, stated that improved market confidence, driven by easing concerns about energy supply disruptions, inflation, and interest rates, created a more favorable environment for gold. Traders are closely watching the decisions of several central banks this week. While the Bank of Japans rate hike supported Japanese bond yields and may limit golds upside, investors expect the Federal Reserve to keep rates unchanged. If the Feds updated economic and inflation forecasts remain positive, it could further boost gold prices. Furthermore, continued central bank position building will provide strong structural support. Anwari believes gold prices will find stable support around $4,000 per ounce.Goldman Sachs: We expect liquefied natural gas flows to return to normal by the end of July, later than our previous expectation of the end of June.On June 17, the Peoples Bank of China (PBOC) announced that it will issue the sixth tranche of central bank bills for 2026 through the Hong Kong Monetary Authoritys Central Moneymarkets Unit (CMU) bond bidding platform on June 22, 2026 (Monday).

The US Stock Market Continues to Pull Back

S&P 500 Technical Analysis

On Friday, the S&P 500 sought to climb in the futures markets but gave back gains, indicating weakness. As a result, the market currently threatens the 4500 level in the futures market, which has previously been a key sector. As a result, it'll be fascinating to watch whether we can pull back much farther, possibly to the 50 Day EMA.


The candlestick's magnitude isn't particularly impressive, but it appears like the 4500 goal I suggested before will be tested. If we break it down further, the 50 Day EMA, which is at the 4400 level, makes a lot of sense, followed by the 200 Day EMA, which is also at that level. 


The market is still highly loud, and I believe it will continue to be so in the future. After all, there are a slew of confusing signals at the present, not least in the bond market, where many traders anticipate we'll see as many as eight interest rate hikes, while others say it's impossible.


Find a reason to go higher, but this is due to the fact that it is unconcerned about the underlying economy. Keep in mind that stock markets are about liquidity more than anything economic. If it were the case, the latest straight-up-in-the-air photo would not have taken place. 


That said, savage rallies are common in bear markets, so, while hope springs eternal, I'll be betting on the downside through options rather than directly in the market.
