List of major global markets



As the Federal Reserve will announce its monetary policy decision on Wednesday, the benchmark U.S. stock market index hit a record high. Supporting the stock market's continued rise is that despite the soaring commodity prices and the chaos of the supply chain, the profit margins of listed companies have remained incredibly intact.

Many companies are able to pass on the impact of rising costs to consumers, resulting in most companies' profits exceeding expectations. No matter what the Fed says or does on Wednesday, people think that US interest rates will still be relatively low, which bodes well for the stock market.

BMO Capital Markets strategist Ian Lyngen said on Tuesday that although the stock market may be slowing down relative to the past 18 months, the reality is that risk assets have a good foundation and continue to perform well.

Precious metals and crude oil


Gold prices fell on Tuesday. Spot gold price closed at US$1,787.76 per ounce, down 0.31%, and spot silver fell more than 2%. The US dollar and the stock market rose before the results of the highly anticipated Fed meeting. This meeting may provide The Fed's interest rate hike schedule.

Kitco Metals senior analyst Jim Wyckoff said that before the Federal Reserve issued a statement on Wednesday, the stock market continued to strengthen and continued to crack down on safe-haven gold. But Wyckoff said that recent concerns about inflation have limited the downside of gold and boosted buying interest.

When the Fed concludes its two-day policy meeting on Wednesday, it is expected to approve a plan to reduce the scale of bond purchases.

A stronger US dollar index makes gold more expensive for holders of other currencies.

FXTM senior research analyst Lukman Otunuga said in a report that the price of gold may fluctuate in the next week, or will be affected by the trend of the US dollar, U.S. bond yields, inflation expectations and global risk sentiment.

U.S. crude oil fell more than 1% in late trading. API data showed that US crude oil inventories increased by 3.6 million barrels last week. Traders also looked forward to the OPEC+ meeting on Thursday.

Raymond James & Associates analyst Pavel Molchanov said that OPEC is facing political pressure from importing countries to increase supply, because oil prices are at the highest level in seven years, balancing demand and political pressure-it seems that maintaining the status quo is OPEC's most logical approach right now.

Foreign exchange


The U.S. dollar rose on Tuesday, and the Federal Reserve began a two-day policy meeting. It is expected to announce that it will begin to reduce the large-scale asset purchase program implemented at the beginning of the new crown epidemic. In recent weeks, investors have digested the expectations that central banks will tighten their policies. They believe that policy makers' concerns about rising inflation are enough to bring the easing policy during the epidemic to an end. The RBA’s attitude was more dovish than investors expected, causing the Australian dollar to record its biggest one-day drop since September 29, and it was the first major central bank to hold a meeting this week.

The U.S. dollar index rose 0.26% to 94.11; the market has fully digested the Fed’s expectation of a reduction statement and will look for any clues as to when to start raising interest rates.


Western Union Business Solutions senior market analyst Joe Manimbo said that this will be an interesting thing, considering that the market has become a bit aggressive in digesting multiple interest rate hikes next year, we will have to see if the Fed will hit back on these expectations. The interest rate debate is not all about inflation. It is also about the job market. I think the Fed wants to see the job market really turn around before it admits that policymakers are considering raising interest rates.

The Reserve Bank of Australia did not show the hawkish tendencies that many had expected. The Australian dollar fell 1.29% against the US dollar to 0.7429, the lowest since October 19. Leveraged funds sold the Australian dollar. Previously, the Reserve Bank of Australia Chairman Philip Lowe said that inflation " It may take a while" to return to the target level.

The pound to US dollar fell 0.4% to 1.3606, the lowest since October 13. The Bank of England will hold a meeting on Thursday, and the market is digesting interest rate hike expectations.

The euro to dollar fell 0.23% to 1.1579; the yen strengthened before the local holiday in Japan, and traders adjusted positions for the Fed’s policy meeting. The dollar fell less than 0.1% to 113.96 against the yen.

The Swiss franc briefly touched an 18-month high against the euro. The euro once fell as low as 1.0544 Swiss francs, the lowest since May 2020, and then rebounded to 1.05875, rising 0.33% on the day. The Swiss franc has been rising against the US dollar, climbing 0.6% on the day to 0.9146.
