Core Viewpoint - The international gold price experienced fluctuations, initially rising but ultimately closing lower, indicating increased bearish pressure. The overall trend remains upward, suggesting potential for a rebound if it can hold above key support levels [1][3]. Market Performance - On July 15, gold opened at $3344.03 per ounce, reaching a high of $3366.37 during the European session before falling to a low of $3320.12 in the U.S. session, ultimately closing at $3324.74, down $19.29 or 0.58% [1][3]. - The market is currently facing pressure from a strengthening U.S. dollar index and upcoming economic data releases, which may further impact gold prices [3][5]. Economic Indicators - The U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) for June showed a slight rebound, higher than previous values, which diminishes the likelihood of an interest rate cut this month, negatively affecting gold prices [3][5]. - The market sentiment is influenced by ongoing trade negotiations and geopolitical tensions, with recent comments from U.S. Treasury officials indicating a positive outlook on U.S.-China talks [5][6]. Technical Analysis - Technically, gold prices are maintaining a position above the middle Bollinger Band but show bearish signals in indicators, suggesting potential for a decline towards support levels [6][8]. - Key support levels to watch include $3323 and $3300, while resistance is noted around $3340 and $3351 [8]. Future Outlook - The market anticipates that despite current bearish pressures, there remains a possibility for a bullish trend to emerge later in the year, particularly if the Federal Reserve signals a more accommodative monetary policy [5][6].

Hong Yuan Qi Huo· 2025-07-15 02:06
Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - The demand for summer travel in the US is higher than expected, and the strong gasoline demand boosts market confidence. OPEC+ is optimistic about gasoline demand in the third quarter. The tariff negotiation is postponed to August, which postpones market concerns. PTA will see new installations put into production in the third quarter, creating a time mismatch with PX. Currently, PX inventory is at a historical low, providing strong bottom support. Whether PX profitability can continue to rise depends on unexpected factors. The PX supply side lacks positive factors, and with the off - season of polyester consumption and a significant decline in PTA processing fees, there is a strong expectation of a decline in downstream operating rates, and the fundamentals are weakening. The PTA market is affected by the strong crude oil market, and the downstream polyester operating rate is still higher than last year. The PTA spot basis has rebounded from the bottom. However, with new installations expected on the supply side and no improvement in demand during the off - season, it's difficult to boost prices. The polyester industry chain is driven by fundamentals, and due to weak supply - demand expectations, prices have fallen across the board. If polyester production cuts deepen, industry chain contradictions will intensify. The cost - side strength drives the profit distribution pattern to tilt towards raw materials again. PTA will fluctuate, with cost being the dominant factor. The polyester bottle - chip market has sufficient supply, and downstream buying enthusiasm is waning. The polyester industry chain has weak demand and is expected to fluctuate.

Group 1: Trade Negotiations - The EU is preparing to strengthen cooperation with countries also threatened by US tariffs, including Canada and Japan, potentially coordinating response measures [2][6]. - EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated that while the EU has paused retaliatory measures until August 1, it is preparing further countermeasures to ensure readiness [10][11]. - The EU's current countermeasure list could affect approximately €210 billion (about $245 billion) of US goods, with an additional list of around €720 billion being prepared [11]. Group 2: Market Reactions - Following Trump's tariff announcement, European stock indices fell, with the Euro Stoxx 50 index down 0.6% and the German DAX index down 0.7% on July 14 [3][7]. - US stock markets also experienced declines, with the Dow Jones down 0.15% and the S&P 500 down 0.2% [8].

Group 4: Political Responses - French President Macron expressed strong dissatisfaction with Trump's tariff threats, urging the EU to prepare credible countermeasures if no agreement is reached by August 1 [13]. - German Chancellor Merz indicated that failure to resolve the trade conflict through negotiations would fundamentally impact European exporters [14]. Group 5: Ongoing Negotiations - Key issues in the ongoing EU-US negotiations include automotive and agricultural tariffs, with discussions about a preliminary agreement that may involve a 10% tariff on most EU exports [16][17]. - There is skepticism among EU officials regarding Trump's commitment to the 30% tariff, viewing it as a negotiation tactic rather than a definitive policy [18].
