US President Trump: Americans are paying higher gasoline prices, but its a "very cheap price" relative to what the US has achieved.On September 17, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) announced a 25 basis point increase in its benchmark interest rate to 4.25%. This is the first adjustment to the benchmark interest rate by the HKMA since 2023, ending a period of interest rate stability. This rate hike is a direct response to the Federal Reserves policy change on the same day. The HKMA stated explicitly that following the Feds policy is to maintain the Hong Kong dollars peg to the US dollar. Under this system, the Hong Kong dollar is pegged to the US dollar, and Hong Kongs monetary policy must be linked to the US to ensure exchange rate stability. Despite the increase in the benchmark interest rate, the market remains cautious about the actual changes in local credit costs in Hong Kong. As is customary, major Hong Kong banks typically announce their own interest rate adjustment plans later that day after the HKMAs adjustment, with changes to the prime lending rate being particularly crucial.Multiple explosions were heard in Kyiv, Ukraine, in the early hours of September 17 local time.US President Trump: (Regarding Iran) I predict the war will end soon, and the government has transformed the United States from a “dark age” to a “golden age.”September 17th - US President Trump: "That war?

They call and say, We want a deal!"

Predictions for Gold Prices — Gold prices rose as the dollar weakened

Gold prices rise as the dollar weakens to start the week. The currency experienced negative pressure on reduced growth prospects and likely march toward recession. Benchmark rates climbed as shares surged today. Today, the yield on the ten-year Treasury note rose by 3 basis points.

 

On Monday, there was little going on in the world of business. Focus continues on Fed Chair Powell’s speech tomorrow and major economic statistics including PCI and first-quarter GDP published this week. Investors are anxious about impending recession and sluggish economic growth.

Analytical Methods

Gold prices came back from session highs but are still higher and possibly be headed to the 1860s. This week's economic statistics might point to a slowdown in economic growth, which would benefit gold.

 

To begin the week, gold prices held above the 200-day moving average of $1839. Support is indicated near the 200-day moving average near 1839. Resistance is apparent at the May 12th peak of 1858.

 

The Fast Stochastic has formed a crossover buy signal, indicating that the short-term momentum is bullish. Prices are no longer oversold as the fast stochastic prints a value of 54.58, considerably above the oversold trigger level of 20.

 

Medium-term momentum turns bullish as the MACD can provide a crossover buy signal. This occurs as the 12-day moving average minus the 26-day moving average passes below the 9-day moving average of the MACD line.

 

Price declines are predicted by the MACD (moving average convergence divergence) histogram, which shows a downward trend in price.
