Market Analysis: Dovish Remarks from Powell and the Federal Reserve's Dovish Response Mechanism Support Gold's Rally

ChainCatcher news, according to Golden Ten Data, Investinglive analyst Giuseppe Dellamotta stated that recently, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell made more dovish remarks than expected at the FOMC press conference, providing support for gold prices. He downplayed inflation risks and emphasized the weakness in the labor market, suggesting that the Federal Reserve has a higher tolerance for higher inflation than for labor market weakness.

This week's focus is on the US Non-Farm Payrolls report and the Consumer Price Index (CPI) report. Currently, the market expects the Federal Reserve to cut rates by 57 basis points by the end of 2026. If US economic data is strong, especially in the labor market, we may see a hawkish adjustment in market rate expectations, leading to a decline in gold prices.

On the other hand, weak data should further support precious metal prices, as the market will bet on rate cuts ahead of time. From a more macro perspective, due to the Federal Reserve's dovish reaction mechanism, real yields may continue to decline, so gold prices should maintain an upward trend. However, in the short term, further hawkish adjustments in rate expectations may put pressure on the market.
