The opinion proposes that in the year the long-term care insurance system is established in various regions, the contribution rate for unemployed urban and rural residents will be halved, starting at around 0.15%, and gradually transitioning to around 0.3% over approximately five years. Regions with suitable conditions may also start at around 0.3%. The opinion encourages self-employed individuals to participate in the insurance at the rate standard for employees of their employers. The contribution base can be determined as a certain percentage (not less than 60%) of the average social wage of the previous year in the region, with individuals paying according to regulations. Self-employed individuals may also choose to participate and pay according to the insurance policy for unemployed urban and rural residents. The government will provide categorized subsidies for the personal contribution portion of eligible low-income groups. Individuals under the age of 18 who participate in the insurance with their parents or other legal guardians will not be funded separately. The personal account of the basic medical insurance for employees can be used for the personal contributions of themselves and their close relatives (including spouse, parents, children, siblings, grandparents, maternal grandparents, grandchildren, and maternal grandchildren) to participate in long-term care insurance.

Gold Price Prediction: XAU / USD corrects to around $1,910 despite intensifying concerns of a global banking crisis

After reaching a new six-week high at $1,937.39, the gold price (XAU/USD) displayed a corrective move during the Asian session. As gold's allure is extremely strong amid growing concerns about the global banking crisis, a correction in the precious metal appears to be short-lived. Credit Suisse's debacle following the failure of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) has triggered the risk of global financial instability, and uncertainty over the Federal Reserve's (Fed) upcoming interest rate decision has bolstered the case for the Gold price.

 

S&P500 futures have shown a recovery move following Wednesday's sell-off as investors assess the banking sector's uncertainty. However, the motif of risk aversion has not yet completely subsided.

 

During the Asian session, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is fluctuating in a narrow range of around 104.60. It appears that the impact of banking sector turmoil is maturing for the USD Index, and investors are beginning to discount expectations for next week's monetary policy. According to the CME FedWatch instrument, the probability that Fed chair Jerome Powell will raise interest rates by 25 basis points (bps) has risen above 70%. While 30% of the probabilities support maintaining the current interest rate policy.

 

Increasing odds of a status quo monetary policy are supported by a declining Consumer Price Index (CPI), a rising Unemployment Rate, sluggish Retail Sales, and a declining Producer Price Index (PPI).
