Market Overview - The US stock market experienced a rebound after Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's speech on August 22, indicating an openness to interest rate cuts, which increased expectations for a September rate cut. The Dow Jones rose by 1.53%, the S&P 500 increased by 0.26%, while the Nasdaq fell by 0.58% [1] Oil Market - International oil prices saw a significant increase due to the lack of progress in peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, leading to expectations that US sanctions on the Russian oil industry will continue. Additionally, a substantial decrease in US crude oil inventories contributed to oil prices rising for the first time in three weeks, with West Texas Intermediate (WTI) oil up by 1.37% and Brent crude up by 2.85% [4] Gold Market - International gold prices rose by over 1% as some investors bought on dips following a period of decline. The market's expectations for a Federal Reserve rate cut and a weaker dollar supported the increase in gold prices [5] Economic Indicators - This week, the market is focused on the release of the US July Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, a key inflation indicator for the Federal Reserve. Economists expect the core PCE index to remain unchanged at a month-on-month increase of 0.3%, with a slight year-on-year rebound to 2.9%. It is believed that this inflation data will not hinder the Fed's rate cut in September, but higher-than-expected inflation could dampen rate cut expectations beyond September [8] Earnings Reports - Several technology companies, including Nvidia, HP, Marvell Technology, and Dell Technologies, are set to release their latest earnings reports this week. Analysts suggest that these reports may serve as important indicators for the current state of the artificial intelligence industry and could impact the performance of the tech sector in the US stock market [9]
