Takaichi hopes to consolidate her power and secure clear authorization for her spending and investment plans, which have unsettled some investors. Takaichi has stated she will stake her job on the election results and will resign if the ruling coalition fails to win a majority in the more powerful House of Representatives. Takaichi currently holds a slim majority of 233 of the 465 seats in the House of Representatives. Polls suggest she is poised for a landslide victory. The Nikkei reports that the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and its smaller ruling coalition partner, the Japan Restoration Party, could win over 300 seats. The Mainichi Shimbun states that the LDP alone could win 300 seats, meaning the ruling coalition could secure two-thirds of the House of Representatives. Despite this, the Middle Way Reform Coalition appears to be struggling to win over voters. Some polls suggest the party may ultimately lose half of its seats. In a rare winter election, snowfall in the north could also reduce voter turnout and weaken support for Kaohsiung, especially given that she relies on personal popularity rather than organized voting to increase the Liberal Democratic Partys seats.February 8th - The "Implementation Opinions on Promoting High-Quality Urban Development" was recently issued, proposing to promote the coordinated development of large, medium, and small cities.

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.
