Trump's tariff policy was inconsistent, increasing market uncertainty and raising investors' risk aversion, which limited the decline of gold prices [3][6]. - The US International Trade Court ruled that part of Trump's tariff policy exceeded his authority and ordered an immediate one-day halt to tariff collection. However, the Federal Appellate Court temporarily restored Trump's most comprehensive tariff policy last Thursday. The US Supreme Court is about to rule on Trump's $1.4 trillion global tariff case.

After the data release, traders still bet that the Fed would cut interest rates in September [3][7]. - Geopolitically, the second round of direct negotiations between Russia and Ukraine in Istanbul on June 2 ended.

Market Analysis and Outlook - Last week, precious metal prices maintained high-level fluctuations. Trump's tariff policy was inconsistent, increasing market uncertainty and raising investors' risk aversion, which limited the decline of gold prices [6]. - The US International Trade Court ruled that part of Trump's tariff policy exceeded his authority and ordered an immediate one-day halt to tariff collection. However, the Federal Appellate Court temporarily restored Trump's most comprehensive tariff policy last Thursday. The US Supreme Court is about to rule on Trump's $1.4 trillion global tariff case. If the Biden-era standard is continued, Trump's taxing power will be historically restricted; if the president's direct authorization and national security reasons are recognized, the risk of a global trade war and economic uncertainty may continue [6]. - On May 30, Trump announced raising the tariff on imported steel from 25% to 50%. On May 31, the European Commission expressed regret over the US's decision to raise tariffs on imported steel and aluminum and stated that the EU was prepared to take countermeasures. If a mutually acceptable solution cannot be reached, the EU's existing and additional measures will automatically take effect on July 14 or earlier if necessary. The first meeting between the leaders of the US and Germany on June 5 may lead to Germany being "ambushed." The escalation of the trade dispute between the US and Germany may impact European exporters, especially in the automotive and machinery manufacturing industries, and also affect the business layout of US technology companies in Europe [7]. - The US April PCE data released last Friday was lower than expected. After the data release, traders still bet that the Fed would cut interest rates in September [3][7]. - The minutes of the Fed's meeting from May 6 - 7 showed that Fed policymakers generally believed that the uncertainty facing the economy was higher than before. They were cautious about interest rate cuts and preferred to wait for the impact of Trump's tariff policies to become clearer before taking action. Moreover, almost all policymakers expressed concerns about the long-term inflationary impact of tariffs, which weakened the market's expectation of a Fed rate cut [7]. - Geopolitically, the second round of direct negotiations between Russia and Ukraine in Istanbul on June 2 ended. The Russian delegation was satisfied with the results of the second - round negotiations and submitted a peace memorandum to Ukraine. Ukraine demanded an unconditional ceasefire in the airspace, sea area, and on land for at least 30 days. There is a possibility of a meeting between the leaders of the two countries in Istanbul, but it is too early to discuss the meeting time. Media reported that there were significant differences between the two sides on the ceasefire conditions [8][9]. - Currently, Trump's tariff policy remains inconsistent, especially the trade negotiations between the US and Europe are highly uncertain. The global economic outlook remains unclear, and geopolitical risks are still high. Investors tend to seek more stable asset allocations. It is expected that the gold price will maintain a volatile and slightly stronger trend in the short term [9]. - This week, key data to watch include the US May non - farm payrolls data, ADP data, May ISM non - manufacturing index, and the eurozone April PPI data. In terms of events, pay attention to Fed Chairman Powell's speech and the eurozone central bank's interest rate decision [9]. 3. Important Data Information - The US April core PCE price index rose 2.5% year - on - year, in line with expectations and slower than the previous revised value of 2.7%, the smallest increase in more than four years. The "super core inflation indicator" - the core service cost excluding housing and energy - also fell to a four - year low and had its first month - on - month decline since April 2020. It is expected that as the impact of tariffs becomes apparent, the growth rate of commodity prices will accelerate in May, especially in June [10]. - The revised value of the US first - quarter GDP shrank 0.2% on an annualized basis, slightly better than the previously announced initial value of a 0.3% contraction, but still indicating that the US economy contracted at the beginning of the year. The growth rate of consumer spending was significantly revised down, reaching the weakest growth rate in nearly two years. Corporate profits plunged 2.9%, the largest decline since 2020.
