#SP500:
The S&P 500 marked a much-watched milestone: it retraced half the losses from its steep drop this year in a bullish signal of market recovery. The gauge has also logged its fourth consecutive week higher, putting question marks around the bear market that has haunted equities during a stress-filled summer for traders. The market could still roll over at any time. In other words, we still need a bit more upside follow-through to confirm that the market has indeed retraced more than 50% of its decline. Officials at the Federal Reserve have warned the central bank was a long way from ending its tightening cycle. And a cycle of likely downgrades in earnings forecasts just got under way.
Trading recommendation: range 4150 - 4300.
XAUUSD:
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond President Thomas Barkin said the central bank needs to keep raising interest rates until it’s clear inflation is running at its 2% target even if the economy weakens to avoid a policy mistake similar to the 1970s. While Fed officials view 2.5% as a neutral rate -- the level that neither speeds up nor slows down the economy -- Barkin said there’s uncertainty about the level and his goal was to have interest rates higher than expected inflation, or positive real rates. Citing research by former Richmond Fed Research Director Marvin Goodfriend, Barkin said the policy mistake of the 1970s was the Fed raising and lowering rates in response to changes in economic conditions even with inflation still too high. High interest rates will have a negative impact on the value of gold.
Trading recommendation: sell 1800 and take profit 1775.
