On Tuesday, spot gold fluctuated lower during the session, losing the 1930 mark and falling to an intraday low of $1,922.83 in U.S. trading, a near one-month low, before settling down 0.58% at $1,925.28 per ounce. Spot silver's losses accelerated in premarket trading and fell as low as $22.67 before ending down 1.53 % at $22.78 per ounce.

The yield on the 10-year Treasury fell sharply, falling below the 4 % mark at one point before closing at 4.028%.

Crude oil was on a roller-coaster day. WTI crude briefly lost the $80 mark and fell sharply to a session low of $79.65 before the U.S. session, but after Saudi Arabia reaffirmed its commitment to OPEC + preventive measures, U.S. oil recovered all the losses and turned higher in the U.S. session, ending up 0.4% at $82.78 per barrel. Brent crude settled up 0.34% at $86.13 per barrel.

Apple edged up 0.5%, snapping a five-game losing streak. The Nasdaq China Golden Dragon Index trimmed losses to 2.3% in late trading, with NIO leading the decliners, down 5.1%, 5.2% and 8.6%, respectively, with Li Auto on its first day of trading.

Major European stock indexes closed in the green across the board, with Germany's DAX30 down 1.1%, Britain's FTSE 100 down 0.36% and the Euro Stoxx 50 down 1.12%. European bank shares fell after the Italian government announced a tax on banks' "extra" profits.

Institutional Perspective

01

Goldman Sachs

Goldman Sachs Group is reported to be issuing $2.75 billion in bonds of two maturities ahead of the release of CPI data this Thursday.

02

SOCIETE GENERALE

Societe Generale: Non farm payrolls are expected to increase by 190,000 in July, but any increase above 150,000-175,000 is strong growth. The unemployment rate will fall back to 3.5% and average hourly earnings growth will slow to a monthly rate of 0.3%.

03

MUFG

MUFG: Dollar is expected to see limited gains ahead of CPI data.

The dollar rebounded from Friday's losses after U.S. Non farm payrolls rose less than expected, but gains are expected to be limited as investors focus on key U.S. inflation data for July due on Thursday, MUFG currency economist Lee Hardman said in a note. "Last month's price action highlights how vulnerable the dollar will be to another sell-off if Thursday's US CPI report is weak," he said. If the data again shows a sharp slowdown in core inflation, it will reinforce expectations that the Fed may stop raising interest rates.
