Treasury Yields Decline Ahead of Fed Meeting
As investors shift their focus to the upcoming Federal Reserve policy meeting and economic data releases, U.S. Treasury yields have seen a decline.

Oil Prices Slide Amid Israel-Hamas Ceasefire Talks
With oil prices dropping by 1%, peace talks between Israel and Hamas in Cairo have eased fears of conflict in the Middle East.

Geopolitical tensions have been tempered by efforts to mediate a ceasefire, while data showing U.S. inflation rising to 2.7% through March has impacted rate cut expectations.

Gold Faces Challenges Amidst Fed Meeting, Employment Data
Gold may face challenges in the short term due to delays in rate cuts, but some analysts suggest that maintaining a range between $2200 and $2350 could position it well for potential U.S. macroeconomic downturns. The Federal Reserve’s policy meeting at the end of April and the release of non-farm payrolls data at the end of the week are crucial events to watch for market sentiment. As investors anticipate the Fed to keep its benchmark interest rate steady, all eyes will be on Chair Jerome Powell’s comments for insights into future monetary policy directions.
