Gold Futures Market News and Commentary

Dollar Rises on US Plans to Impose Tariffs

The dollar index (DXY00) Friday rose by +0.58% and posted a 1-week high. The dollar rose Friday on increased safe-haven demand from President Trump’s threat to impose 25% tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico and a 10% tariff on Chinese goods on Saturday.  The dollar also found support from Friday’s US economic news, which showed that Dec personal spending rose more than expected. Gains in the dollar accelerated due to hawkish comments from Fed Governor Bowman and Chicago Fed President Goolsbee, who signaled they wanted to see lower inflation before any additional easing of Fed policy. 

US Dec personal spending rose +0.7% m/m, stronger than expectations of +0.5% m/m.  Dec personal income rose +0.4% m/m, which is right on expectations.

The US Dec core PCE price index, the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, rose +0.2% m/m and +2.8% y/y, right on expectations.

The US Q4 employment cost index rose +0.9%, which is right on expectations.
