This move is expected to increase costs for major U.S. chip companies like Nvidia, AMD, and Intel, which rely on overseas manufacturing [8].

Market Overview - Gold experienced a significant rise, reaching a historical high before a sharp decline of $60, followed by a rebound above $4600, gaining $50 [1][11] - The market is currently in a phase of consolidation after the recent volatility, with potential support levels identified at $4570 and $4612 [11][10] Influencing Factors - The recent surge in gold prices was influenced by the unexpected cooling of the U.S. December CPI data, which is linked to the Federal Reserve's commitment to high interest rates [12] - Additionally, the Federal Reserve's hawkish stance on inflation, prioritizing it over a weak job market, contributed to the volatility in gold prices [13] Upcoming Events - Tensions in the U.S.-Iran situation have heightened, increasing demand for gold as a safe haven [14] - Key economic indicators are set to be released, including the December retail sales month-on-month rate and PPI, which could impact market dynamics [14] Investment Strategy - The gold market remains bullish, with a focus on identifying entry and exit points for trading, emphasizing the importance of risk management and the ability to follow experienced traders [15] - The team claims a high accuracy rate of 85% in trading gold, aiming for significant profit margins on trades [15]

智通财经APP获悉，美国圣路易斯联邦储备银行行长穆萨勒姆周二表示，他认为当前几乎没有理由在短 期内进一步放松货币政策，因为美联储的政策利率已处在"接近中性"的水平，既不会刺激经济，也不会 对经济形成明显抑制。 穆萨勒姆指出，目前的货币政策处于"良好位置"，具备向任何方向调整的灵活性。他估计，在剔除通胀 因素后，当前的实际政策利率大约在1%左右。在此背景下，他认为此时将货币政策转向明显的宽松立 场并不明智。 谈及经济前景，穆萨勒姆表示，就风险而言，劳动力市场存在一定下行风险，而通胀则面临上行风险。 不过，他预计美国劳动力市场将大致稳定在当前水平，通胀也有望继续向美联储设定的2%目标迈进。 今年美国经济增速预计将达到或略高于潜在增速。 在利率政策方面，他支持美联储去年12月的降息决定。他援引圣路易斯联储银行的相关研究称，今年计 划招聘员工的企业比例有所下降，而打算缩减员工规模的企业比例则有所上升。 他同时指出，如果未来劳动力市场的疲软程度超出当前预期，且通胀水平跌破2%，那么下调政策利率 将具备合理性。在这种情况下，政策仍可适度宽松，而不至于进入明显的刺激性区间。 对于生产率前景，穆萨勒姆表示，他对美国可能正进入 ...

2022 年 6 月，伊利诺伊州绍姆堡市一家商店内，一名顾客正在查看商品价签。 美国 12 月通胀水平依旧处于高位，为全年居高难下的物价走势画上句号，这也成了唐纳德・特朗普总 统面临的一大政治负担。 美国劳工统计局今日发布的最新数据显示，11 月至 12 月物价环比上涨 0.3%，与 9 月的环比涨幅持 平。整体来看，物价较去年同期上涨 2.7%。 来源：环球市场播报 12 月各类生活必需品价格普遍上涨。食品价格涨幅尤为显著，环比上涨 0.7%，是整体通胀涨幅的两倍 以上；燃气公用事业价格环比飙升 4.4%。住房、交通、医疗保健及服装等品类价格同样出现较大涨 幅。不过，二手车价格环比下降 1.1%，汽油价格环比下跌 0.5%。 此前受政府停摆事件影响，通胀数据发布一度陷入混乱，因此这份 12 月报告也成了数月来最能清晰反 映美国通胀现状的一份数据。由于联邦政府停摆，10 月的消费者物价指数报告未能如期发布；11 月报 告虽显示通胀意外降温，但数据采集延迟等停摆相关因素，已严重干扰了该份报告的准确性。 巴克莱投资银行美国经济学家普贾・斯里拉姆表示："尽管通胀数据存在诸多干扰因素，但我们正以与 年初相近的通胀水平 ...
