Powell’s speech next week will provide key clues
The trend of the U.S. dollar is still a key factor affecting gold, but the impact of holdings on the U.S. dollar is short-lived. The market will still look for clues from the Fed’s policy trend. Therefore, next week’s Jackson Hole Global Central Bank Annual Meeting and Powell’s August 27 A speech on the long-awaited “assessment of monetary policy framework” will be the focus of the market. In addition, the market also needs to pay attention to the progress of US-Iranian relations and the US stimulus plan, which will also have a direct impact on gold prices.
