Repeated situation
April 4th
Today's volatility range:
It has been more than a month since Russia invaded Ukraine, and the investment market is still dominated by the war between Russia and Ukraine.
The uncertain situation between Russia and Ukraine provides unstable factors for the market, which is conducive to the rise of gold prices, but once the two countries reach an agreement, the price of gold will also accelerate its decline.
Last week, the latest economic data of the United States still challenged the Federal Reserve. Wages and personal core consumer price index continued to rise, indicating that inflation in the United States is still deteriorating.
Gold has traditionally been an effective investment tool to hedge inflation. Until inflation is effectively controlled in Europe and America, the long-term price of gold will remain bullish.
The suggested volatility today is $1908 to $1930.
There are not many important economic data next week, but pay attention to the minutes of last month's meeting of the Federal Reserve announced next Wednesday.

Russia invaded Ukraine for more than a month, and the two countries created a good atmosphere before the negotiation meeting; After Ukrainian President Zelenski told Russia that he was willing to maintain a neutral position in peace talks with Russia, Russia also officially announced that it would stop military activities near Kiev and chernigov, so as to end the war between Russia and Ukraine with a peace agreement.
The news of the easing of the situation in Eastern Europe stimulated the European stock market to rise sharply at the beginning of the week, but then the Russian side reneged, and the Russian army continued to advance in Ukraine the next day.
The market risk aversion atmosphere reappeared, which narrowed the gains of the three major European stock markets.
