The Philadelphia Manufacturing Index, released at 7:30 PM WIB, revealed a significant decline to -12.8, falling well below the forecast of 4 and dropping from the previous level of 23.2. This data indicates a slowdown in industrial activity in the United States, reinforcing concerns that the economy may be losing momentum amid rising borrowing costs and ongoing global pressures. Consequently, investors are shifting towards safe-haven assets, as evidenced by Gold’s increase to around $4,245 shortly after the release of the data.<\/p>\n
In addition to Gold, the weak manufacturing data has also put pressure on the US dollar, resulting in the strengthening of major currency pairs. GBP\/USD climbed to 1.34349, while EUR\/USD strengthened to 1.16583. This market reaction reflects growing speculation that the Federal Reserve may consider easing monetary policy sooner than previously anticipated. With inflation stabilizing and clear signs of economic slowdown becoming more pronounced, expectations for future interest rate cuts are gaining momentum, providing additional support for riskier assets and precious metals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
