How much will interest rates be raised in December?

This image is no longer relevant

Concerns about mass protests in China are in the spotlight. According to the New York Times, "After a weekend of confrontations between officials and demonstrators, video from two sites in Shanghai and Beijing showed a heavy security presence."

Chinese citizens staged protests against the strict restrictions and lockdowns in China, which led to nationwide protests. Investors are worried that lockdowns and strict restrictions will dampen economic growth in China, the world's second-largest economy.

Various members of the Federal Reserve have been very vocal about the upcoming interest rate hikes. These events affect the sentiment of investors in precious metals.

One of the more hawkish members of the Federal Reserve is St. Louis Fed President James Bullard. Last week, he commented on the need to raise the Federal Reserve's base rate to 7% to cope with declining inflation. Speaking to MarketWatch editor Greg Robb this week, when asked how long the federal funds rate would need to stay in the 5% to 7% range, he said that "the Federal Reserve will likely need to keep its benchmark policy rate north of 5% for most of 2023 and into 2024 to succeed in taming inflation."

During his interview with MarketWatch, Bullard also added that "it seems markets are still underestimating the degree to which the Fed will need to keep policy tight in order to rein in inflation, explaining that there is still some expectation that inflation might subside on its own."

Investors are wondering whether Fed Chairman Jerome Powell will tone down the hawkish rhetoric when he speaks Wednesday at an event hosted by the Brookings Institution in Washington. It is now widely believed that the Federal Reserve will raise its base rate by 50 basis points in December.

However, the likelihood of a 50 basis point rate hike is decreasing. Currently, the CME's FedWatch tool estimates a 67.5% chance that the Fed will raise its benchmark rate by 50 basis points at the last FOMC meeting this year. Just a day ago, the CME FedWatch tool predicted a 75.8% chance, and a week ago it predicted an 80.6% chance.

中國計劃召開緊急會議並對美國做出強烈回應

據媒體報導,中國最高領導層今日將召開緊急會議,討論在美國總統唐納·川普宣布新的關稅上調後的額外經濟刺激措施。 華府昨日宣布對某些商品徵收125%的關稅,此舉令許多分析師和觀察家感到意外,特別是考慮到近期中美雙方的談判曾帶來一絲希望。

特朗普暫停關稅90天 但進一步提高對中國的稅率

總統唐納·川普昨天宣布將暫停對數十個貿易夥伴加徵關稅的行動,為期90天,同時將中國的關稅提高至125%。 總統的政策轉變約在對56個國家和歐盟的回應性關稅生效後13個小時發生,引發市場動盪,加劇人們對美國經濟衰退的擔憂。

特朗普在與中國的貿易戰中調整策略(#SPX 和 AUD/USD 有持續復甦的潛力)

美國總統繼續積極地運籌帷幄,參與地緣政治、經濟以及全球金融市場的活動。 投資者在問:星期三到底發生了什麼?為什麼白宮突然宣佈停戰或在關稅戰中暫停90天,而之前還曾拒絕過一次? 比喻來說,任何一位一級方程式賽車手都會羨慕特朗普能夠如特技演員般進行急劇180度轉彎的能力—這促使美國股市指數飆升,創下自本世紀初以來的一些最強增長。
