الذهب يتراجع بعد مكاسبه المبكرة، فما السبب؟
أصدر بنك الاحتياطي الفيدرالي الأمريكي يوم الأربعاء قرار الفائدة، والذي قرر فيه تشديد السياسة النقدية بواقع 75 نقطة أساس، كما صرح محافظ البنك جيروم باول بأن البنك المركزي للولايات المتحدة سيلتزم باستمرار رفع أسعار الفائدة حتى يتراجع التضخم نحو أهداف البنك البالغة 2%.

وأوضح باول أن التضخم لم ينخفض حقا حتى الآن، ولكن ما شهده المؤشر من تراجع يرجع بشكل كبير إلى تحسن جانب الطلب، وهو ما يعني احتمالية أن يستمر الفيدرالي الأمريكي برفع أسعار الفائدة بقوة باجتماعاته القادمة أيضا هذا العام.

وأدى هذا إلى صعود الدولار الأمريكية بقوة ، حيث صعد مؤشر الدولار - الذي يقيس أداء العملة الأمريكية مقابل 6 عملات رئيسية أخرى - بنحو 0.1% مسجلا 111.49 نقطة، مما دفع الذهب نحو التراجع.

وشهد الدولار عمليات جني أرباح دفعت للتراجع بوقت مبكر من الجلسة، مما أفسح المجال أمام الذهب لتمحو بعض خسائره السابقة.

#نتائج قرار الفيدرالي برفع الفائدة.
سجلت الأسهم الأمريكية خسائر قوية بمستهل تعاملات اليوم، وافتتحت على خسائر حادة ولم تتعاف بعد من قرار الفيدرالي برفع الفائدة.

سقط مؤشر داو جونز الآن بنحو 183 نقطة أو بنسبة 0.64% تقريبا ليسجل 30000 نقطة. وتراجع مؤشر S&P بمقدار 28 نقطة أو بنسبة 0.80% تقريبا ليصل إلى 3761 نقطة.

فيما انخفض مؤشر ناسداك بحوالي 1% ويفقد 108 نقطة ليستقر عند 11529 نقطة.

وتضررت الأسهم الأمريكية من بعد صدور بيانات التضخم الأمريكية الصادرة الأسبوع الماضي، بجانب صدور قرار الفيدرالي أمس.

وهو ما عزز الطلب بقوة على الدولار وأضعف الطلب على الأسهم الأمريكية بفعل رفع الفائدة للسيطرة على التضخم المرتفع.

The comments sent interest rates and bank shares lower and dragged the broader indexes down with them.

Gold prices steady ahead of Fed rate hike decision

Fed rate hike widely expected.
Spot palladium moves away from 8-month highs hit on Tuesday.

Gold prices drifted in a narrow range on Wednesday as investors awaited cues of the U.S. Federal Reserve's two-day meeting, where policymakers are expected to raise interest rates for the third time this year.

Spot gold was up 0.1 percent at $1,201.64, as of 0337 GMT, having moved in a $3 range early Wednesday.

U.S. gold futures climbed 0.1 percent to $1,206.0 an ounce.

The Fed will end its two-day policy meeting later on Wednesday at which it is expected to raise interest rates for the eighth time since late 2015. Investors are also counting on another rate hike before year-end, though the outlook for 2019 is less clear.

A strong dollar makes dollar-priced gold costlier for non-U.S. investors, while rising U.S. interest rates typically deter investors from buying a non-yielding asset such as gold.

The dollar index, which weighs the greenback against a basket of six major currencies, was flat at 94.143.

Gold dropped about 12 percent since hitting a peak in April, marred by rising U.S. interest rates and a global trade war that has led investors to choose the dollar as a safe haven rather than gold.

Oil prices rise on tightening market, traders expect further increases

U.S. crude inventories at lowest level since 2015.
Tighter U.S. market comes ahead of new Iran sanctions.
Merchants, banks say crude could spike above $90 soon.

Oil prices rose on Monday as U.S. markets tightened just weeks ahead of Washington's plan to impose new sanctions against Iran, with major traders and banks expecting prices to rise over $90 per barrel in coming months.

Brent crude futures were at $79.82 per barrel at 0501 GMT, up by $1.02 cents, or 1.3 percent from their last close.

U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures rose by 82 cents, or 1.2 percent, to $71.60 a barrel.

Amid a tightening market, U.S. commercial crude oil inventories are at their lowest level since early 2015. And while output remains around the record of 11 million barrels per day (bpd), recent subdued U.S. drilling activity points towards a slowdown.

Oil rises on signs OPEC not prepared to boost output

OPEC, non-OPEC ministers meet in Algeria on Sunday
Market watching trade war impact on crude demand
U.S. sanctions on Iran continue to support prices
U.S. shale output expected to rise in October

Oil firmed on Tuesday on signs that OPEC would not be prepared to raise output to address shrinking supplies from Iran and as Saudi Arabia signalled it was in no rush to bring prices down.

Brent crude futures were up $1.14 a barrel to $79.19 a barrel, after hitting a high of $79.37.

U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude was up 95 cents at $69.86 per barrel, after rising over $1 to $69.95.

Ministers from OPEC and non-OPEC producers meet on Sunday to discuss compliance with output policies. OPEC sources have told Reuters no immediate action was planned and producers would discuss how to share a previously agreed output increase.

Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said an oil price between $70 and $80 was temporary and sanctions-driven, adding that the long-term price would stand around $50.

U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry said last week in Moscow that he did not foresee any price spikes once sanctions came into effect and was positive about Saudi output.

Oil mixed as China tariff talk scotches early rally

Oil prices pulled back on Friday amid concerns additional U.S. tariffs would be placed on China, trading mixed after a rally triggered by worries of more sanctions on Iran.

Crude futures were on track to end the week up about 1.6 percent.

Traders said a rally on Friday was sparked by reports Secretary of State Michael Pompeo was going to give a press conference on new sanctions on Iran.

The gains from the expected news conference were curbed after reports U.S. President Donald Trump instructed aides to proceed with tariffs on about $200 billion more of Chinese products.

At about 11:30 a.m. EDT (1530 GMT) the rally began, with U.S. crude up over $1 a barrel.

Oil prices climb ahead of US sanctions on Iran
Oil prices rose on Tuesday as U.S. sanctions squeezed Iranian crude exports. Washington has told its allies to reduce imports of Iranian oil and several Asian buyers.

Oil prices rose on Tuesday as U.S. sanctions squeezed Iranian crude exports, tightening global supply despite efforts by Washington to get other producers to increase output.

Benchmark Brent crude oil was up 50 cents at $77.87 a barrel by 0750 GMT. U.S. light crude was 15 cents higher at $67.69.

Washington has told its allies to reduce imports of Iranian oil and several Asian buyers, including South Korea, Japan and India appear to be falling in line.

But the U.S. government does not want to push up oil prices, which could depress economic activity or even trigger a slowdown in global growth.

Gold rises, set for longest monthly losing streak in 5½ years

Rises in U.S. interest rates to cap gold
Gold still set for fifth straight monthly decline

Gold ticked higher on Friday as the dollar rose and investors grew jittery about an escalation in the U.S.-China trade dispute after fresh threats by U.S. President Donald Trump, though bullion is still heading for its fifth straight monthly decline.

Spot gold stayed flat at $1,199.48 an ounce while U.S. gold futures were up slightly at $1,205.30 an ounce.

Gold prices are down 1.6 percent in August, with losses this year totaling more than 7 percent.

Gold firms as dollar slides on dovish comments from Fed's Powell

Gold prices rose on Friday as the dollar came under pressure from clues about the direction of U.S. monetary policy from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, which market watchers interpreted as dovish.

The greenback weakened as Powell, speaking in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, said a gradual approach to raising rates remained appropriate to protect the U.S. economy and keep job growth as strong as possible with inflation under control.

Spot gold had increased 1.8 percent to $1,206.14 an ounce, heading for a 1.9 percent weekly gain. U.S. gold futures for December delivery settled up $19.30, or 1.6 percent, at $1,213.30 per ounce.

U.S. political uncertainty, heightened by the legal woes of two of U.S. President Donald Trump's former advisers this week, is keeping the dollar under pressure despite tighter

A weaker U.S. currency makes dollar-denominated gold cheaper for holders of other currencies, which could boost demand and prices.

A Reuters survey published on Thursday showed analysts expecting U.S. rates to rise twice more this year and twice next year. The Fed next meets over Sept. 25-26.

Higher rates raise the opportunity cost of holding gold, which can be costly to store and insure.
