Britain's economic recovery from the shock of the COVID-19 pandemic has gathered pace.

Grocery sales are 3% up on the year and online sales are 50% higher than before the pandemic. The UK is still seeing a V-shape bounce in activity. This is a positive signal for the stock market!
Trading recommendation: Buy 6000 and take profit 6076.

XAUUSD:
The Fed, at its July 28-29 meeting, dismissed the notion that it should exert controls over the yield curve, the minutes showed. Benchmark yield from the U.S. Treasury’s 10-year note had been negative for most of the past two months and traders had been hoping the Fed would keep it that way by subjecting controls on the instrument. When the central bank balked at the idea, it gave forex traders an excuse to drive the Dollar Index higher — despite the trillions of dollars of stimulus issued by the U.S. Congress and actions by the Fed to support a pandemic-struck economy. This is a negative signal for gold!
Trading recommendation: Sell 1944 and take profit 1925.
