🇺🇸 US Pre-Market: Moderately Positive 📈

Moderately positive trends are prevailing in the US stock market pre-market.

In the Information Technology sector, NVIDIA (NVDA) is up 1.56%, while Micron Technology (MU) is up 1.66%.

In the Financials sector, Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) is up 0.14%, while JPMorgan Chase (JPM) is up 0.09%.

In the Energy sector, Exxon Mobil (XOM) is down 0.34%, while Chevron (CVX) is down 0.42%.

The predominance of gains among large-cap technology and financial companies points to risk-on sentiment within the US market. In this scenario, demand for the dollar as a safe-haven asset remains subdued, and the dollar's short-term performance is likely to be neutral, barring any negative developments on Fed rates or US economic expectations.

▶️ Pro News Flash: Gold Hits $4,400

💰 Gold has surged to $4,400, its highest level since early June, as weak US jobs data, persistent inflation and a weaker dollar fuel expectations of further gains.

📊 Slowing job creation and PCE inflation above the Fed’s 2% target are strengthening the case for easier monetary policy, while rising oil prices are adding to stagflation concerns.

🏦 Growing investor concerns over central bank credibility, alongside increased central bank gold purchases, ETF demand and speculative positioning, are providing another boost for the precious metal.

⚠️ Gold now faces a key test from upcoming US inflation data. The slower consumer price growth is, the greater the chances that the rally will continue.

BNB’s rise points to a recovery in crypto, despite the cloud hanging over BTC

The crypto market capitalisation has remained virtually unchanged over the past 24 hours, hovering around $2.18T. Trading activity in crypto and equity markets is currently at its lowest due to the holiday season. This period also often lays the groundwork for trends in the coming quarters, as market participants reassess the situation ahead of the end of the US financial year in September.

Bitcoin retreated to $63.3K late on Tuesday, where it found support at the 50-day moving average. The leading cryptocurrency has been unable to break away from this medium-term trend line, although the price has remained predominantly above it for almost a month. This line itself is almost horizontal, underscoring the market’s neutral sentiment. Fundamentally, the leading cryptocurrency’s growth is being hampered by a wave of selling from institutional investors, who are actively selling bitcoins to finance their transition to AI.

🇺🇸 US Pre-Market: Moderately Positive 📈
Following the inflation figures, the US stock market is showing a moderately positive trend in pre-market trading.

In the Information Technology sector, NVIDIA (NVDA) is up 1.43%, while Broadcom (AVGO) is up 2.05%.

In the Financials sector, JPMorgan Chase (JPM) is up 0.09%, while Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) is down 0.18%.

In the Industrials sector, Applied Materials (AMAT) is up 4.62%, while Caterpillar (CAT) is up 2.33%.

The predominance of gains among the largest companies by market cap points to a risk-on environment, supporting demand for risk assets, while the dollar maintains a largely neutral trend: interest in safe-haven dollar instruments is limited, and the direction of the exchange rate will largely depend on Fed rate expectations.
