GOLD weekly uptrend opportunity based On 1.00 Lot Calculation:
- EVENT (TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14 AT 13:30 GMT+1): INFLATION (CPI) IN THE U.S. FOR AUGUST. INFLATION (CPI) FOR JULY (5.4% vs. 5.3% exp.) (HIGHEST SINCE 2008). Inflation has continued to rise, moved up by high stimulus packages provided by the US Federal Reserve and the US Congress. A rising inflation usually increases demand for gold as the asset is traditionally considered a store of value, which tends to protect the purchasing power of people’s wealth amid higher inflation.
- EVENT (WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22 AT 19:00 GMT+1): FEDERAL RESERVE MEETING. Another delay of stimulus tapering announcement now expected: FED MEETING JULY 28 (PREVIOUS MEETING): INTEREST RATE: Interest rate stay in the range between 0.00% and 0.25%. BOND PURCHASING PROGRAMME (120 billion dollars per month): For the moment they will keep buying the same amount. FED CHAIR JEROME POWELL: “Still some ground to cover before substantial further progress is achieved. The timing of any taper will depend on incoming data and we will provide advance notice before any changes. I'm not in any position to provide any guidance on the timing of the taper. We're clearly a ways away from raising interest rates; it's not on our radar now. Delta could slow the economy down for a period of months”.
- GOLDMAN SACHS: Goldman Sachs are looking for commodities to "rebound sharply" following their recent sell offs. Goldman Sachs (Gold) are forecasting $2,000 in 3, 6 and 12-month horizons.
