Market Rebound Continues; Gold Under Pressure By Market Pulse (Craig Erlam) Market Overview7 hours ago (Jan 08, 2019 10:40)

https://uk.investing.com/analysis/market-rebound-continues--8-january-2019-200205484 US futures are back in the green ahead of the open on Tuesday, as risk appetite continues to gradually improve following Friday’s jobs data and Powell comments. The combination of healthy labour market data and dovish commentary from the Fed Chair has provided relief to stock markets that endured a rough fourth quarter, to put it mildly. It’s too early to claim that the worst is behind us, but the environment currently looks more favourable than it has for a few months. With the US and China in talks to de-escalate their trade conflict, the central bank showing a willingness to slow its tightening cycle and the economy still performing well, the markets may be looking a little more attractive. That said, there’s still a sense of vulnerability that could quickly unravel any rebound we see. Trump remains unpredictable and talks could take a turn for the worse at any point. Gold is under a little pressure on Tuesday, still struggling to tackle the $1,300 USD level that has prompted some profit taking following an impressive rally. The dollar is continuing to put up a fight even as it continues to look vulnerable, which would offer support to gold in its bid to break through its resistance. A more dovish Fed has clearly aided this move but still the dollar index continues to hold just above 95.5, although I do wonder for how long. It’s not looking good at the moment. The improved risk environment at the start of the week doesn’t help the bullish case for gold at a time when the profit-takers are taking some of the shine off of it. Perhaps in the near-term we’ll see a bit of a corrective move, with $1,280 and $1,260 offering possible support, but I do think we’ll see a much stronger run at $1,300 soon that will test just how bullish the market really is.
