Geopolitical superposition tight monetary expectation suppresses risk appetite

The news from Russia and Ukraine exacerbated market risk aversion. Although the war forecast of public opinion in the early stage of the United States and Britain went bankrupt, the fundamentals of the geopolitical game surrounding the Ukrainian issue have not subsided recently. US President Joe Biden said that now all the evidence shows that Russia plans to invade Ukraine, while Russia accused the United States of ignoring its security requirements. Europe is experiencing one of the most serious crises in Post Cold War relations. Russia wants security assurances, including that Ukraine will never join NATO, while the United States and its allies provide arms control and mutual trust building measures. Geopolitics triggered a surge in risk aversion.

U.S. inflation data continued to ferment, and the yield of U.S. 10-year Treasury bonds fell, reducing the opportunity cost of holding interest free gold. According to the data released by the National Bureau of statistics on February 16, the UK consumer price index (CPI) rose 5.5% year-on-year in January, the highest in nearly 30 years. Britain’s CPI has remained high for months. The Bank of England, the Central Bank of England, said the UK inflation rate would continue to rise and could reach 7.25% in April. Kazimir, the Governing Committee of the European Central Bank, supports the end of quantitative easing in August, improves the flexibility of interest rate hikes, and proposes that it is best to implement monetary tightening gradually.

Future forecast

Japan’s core consumer prices rose for the fifth consecutive month in January, but the rate of rise slowed compared with the previous month, increasing the possibility that the pace of interest rate hike by the Bank of Japan will lag behind other economies. In the long run, the monetary easing policy is gradually ebbing, and the expectation of interest rate hike suppresses the continuous rise of precious metal prices. In the short term, precious metals are likely to rise and fall.
