Gold started the day with a big selloff but then recovered after the FOMC and Janet Yellen announced that they would not be raising interest rates at this time. Gold is now attempting to break out of a potential triple top at $1220. If Gold can break through, then the first target would be 1241.7, the .618 fib extention from the bull run that started at the end of...

Disappointing employment change in Australia and a dollar rally will provide selling pressure on the Aussie Dollar pair to the 0.7500 level
Another argument for the BOJ outperform case - Post BOJ Buy $Yen @MRKT 111tp: 1. We know BOJ and JPY Govt Abe/ Aso have had many meetings post-brexit and as it follows the JPY Govt have announced today that they will deliver a fiscal stimulus package of 28trn - which was to the very right of the curve (10-30 was talked about). - This in mind, imo it is...
you can clearly see a cute, well-defined pattern of wave, and two potential targets One at First Floor,and the second, at the 2do Floor .
Part-time employment is also declining within its well defined trend since 2012, however it has still some progress to make before reaching pre-crisis levels. In fact, it is the only systemic fallout left to be erased from the 2008-2009 crisis in the employment data.
Long term (27-WEEK AND OVER) unemployment is also well within the declining trend and it has almost reached pre- 2008/9 crisis level, confirming the positive data in unemployment and total payroll charts. Current levels are also highs of previous recession, thus everything below current levels can be considered normal, if the data holds descending trend.

The unemployment rate remained at 5.3%, while wage growth came out at 2.1% year-on-year, up from 2.0% in the previous month. According to a latest Reuters poll, the median...
Our view for both the UK and US has been that rates will remain lower for longer than many in the market have been anticipating. With the Bank of England's inaugural "Super Thursday" having a more dovish tone than many were expecting that scenario seems more likely in the UK. Indeed Swiss bank UBS has pushed its own forecast for the first UK rate rise out to...
Employment in the US private sector disappointed last month, shattering hopes that the Fed will raise interest rates in September. The number of employees increased by 185,000 in July compared to the 229,000 booked in June, according to ADP. On Friday, the non-farm payroll report will provide further hints of labor market development, with analysts expecting a...
An update to our previous idea (see link below). An unexpectedly disappointing gauge of employment costs in the US brought strong bearish pressure on USD, shooting the EUR/USD well above the $1.10 level, as well as lifting Gold price up to $1100 handle. No trendline break in XAUUSD yet. The Employment Cost Index showed the lowest increase in workers' pay since...
