- US Treasury bond yields fell for a second day on Tuesday as traders reacted to weaker-than-expected manufacturing data and easing inflation risks on the back of fall oil prices, boosting demand for the non-yielding Gold price.
- The New York Federal Reserve's Empire State Manufacturing Index fell following a surge to a 29-month high in September, to -11.9 in October, marking the weakest reading since May and indicating deteriorating conditions.
- Easing fears of a supply disruption, along with a weaker demand outlook, drag Crude Oil prices to a two-week low, which is expected to reduce inflationary pressures and allow the US central bank to cut interest rates further.
- The markets, however, are pricing in a greater possibility of a smaller interest rate cut at the next FOMC policy meeting in November, which should underpin the US Dollar and keep a lid on any further gains for the XAU/USD.
- Meanwhile, San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly noted on Tuesday that the US central bank has made significant progress on tamping down inflation and sees one or two more rate cuts this year if economic forecasts are met.
- Separately, Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic said that he doesn't see strong signs of a potential recession looming over the horizon as the US economy continues to perform well and that the inflation is heading back to 2%.
- On Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected the idea of a ceasefire in Lebanon, while the militant group Hezbollah threatened to widen its attacks, raising the risk of a further escalation of the conflict.
- The Biden administration has warned Israel that it faces possible punishment, including the potential stopping of US weapons transfers if it does not take immediate action to let more humanitarian aid into Gaza.
- The market attention will be on the US economic releases – Monthly Retail Sales, Industrial Production, and the usual Weekly Initial Jobless Claims – and the Chinese macro data dump due later this week.
