日本央行 Himino 释放准备提高借贷成本的信号,该表态为观察后续利率决策提供了直接线索。
The UK September CPI report was released today, and the market has almost completely priced in the Bank of England to raise interest rates by 25 basis points in November. The market expects the overall CPI to rise by 3.4% year-on-year, and the core CPI to rise by 2.8%, both higher than the previous values. Traders price the probability of an interest rate hike in November at about 96%, and the probability of continuous interest rate hikes in December at about 61%; the author believes that hotter data may strengthen expectations for further tightening after November, while softer data may prompt traders to reduce some aggressive expectations.
Editorial Comment
The UK's September CPI data will verify the market's almost complete pricing of the Bank of England's interest rate hike in November. The market expects both overall and core inflation to be higher than the previous value. This means that if the data is higher than expected, it may strengthen expectations for further tightening after November. If the data is lower than expected, it may prompt traders to reduce some aggressive bets. For sterling and gold traders, the key is not the single rate hike itself, but how the data changes the market's marginal pricing of the policy path in December and beyond.

Bank of Japan Deputy Governor Himimo Ryozo warned of upward inflation risks, saying potential inflation was close to the 2% target and stressing that delays in adjusting policy could allow inflation risks to materialize and harm the economy. Traders have almost ruled out action at the October meeting, but priced in about a 74% chance of raising interest rates again in December; the author believes that further tightening by the Bank of Japan is still on the agenda.
Editorial Comment
The hawkish statement by the deputy governor of the Bank of Japan has strengthened the market's expectations for subsequent policy normalization, but there is a significant time lag between traders' pricing of an interest rate hike in December and a hold on the policy in October. The foreign exchange market needs to pay attention to how this difference in policy expectations affects the revaluation of the yen carry trade, and the resulting indirect transmission of cross-asset fluctuations to gold.

South Korean AI infrastructure company Elice plunged 32% on its first day of trading before rebounding about 30% the next day, the latest sign that investors are taking a closer look at the AI spending boom. The company’s IPO raised 201 billion won (about $151 million) and was priced at the upper end of its issuance range. Analysts believe that the market is shifting from looking only at the scale of capital expenditures to questioning investment returns, putting debt-driven expansion of neocloud manufacturers and Korean semiconductor stocks under greater pressure.
Citadel founder Ken Griffin says investors are almost certainly in an AI bubble, but thinks real technological transformation and bubbles can coexist. On the same day, SpaceX disclosed that AI revenue was approximately US$7.6 billion, accounting for more than half of quarterly revenue; Super Micro raised its guidance, and Musk said that computing power was scarce, showing that demand is still strong. Griffin said he wished he had owned Amazon then, using a dot-com analogy and emphasized that the warning was about valuation, not demand.
Editorial Comment
Griffin's bubble warning separates valuation disputes from technological transformation, suggesting that AI asset fluctuations may come more from valuation revisions than demand collapse. For the gold foreign exchange market, such remarks may exacerbate the recurrence of risk sentiment, and it is worth paying attention to the rebalancing of safe-haven funds between gold, Japanese yen, Swiss francs and risky assets; at the same time, strong demand signals may limit the sustainability of safe-haven transactions.

Reuters estimates show the People's Bank of China is expected to set the USD/CNY midpoint at 6.6779. In the past year, the central bank has set the daily central parity rate weaker than market expectations. Since October, the central parity rate has accelerated and narrowed the gap with expectations, indicating that it has relaxed its resistance to RMB appreciation. The gap between the fixed price and market expectations remains a clear window for observing the central bank's tolerance for RMB appreciation.
Editorial Comment
The central bank of China set the central parity rate at around 6.6779 and narrowed the gap with market expectations, showing that its tolerance for RMB appreciation has increased. This policy signal is a key window for USD/CNY traders to observe short-term exchange rate management intentions. Traders can continue to track the deviation of the daily central parity from model expectations. If the difference converges further, it may mean that the central bank is more inclined to let market forces dominate the exchange rate, thus affecting the linkage between the U.S. dollar index and gold.

Data from Japan's Ministry of Finance showed that exports increased by 16.7% year-on-year in September, increasing for 13 consecutive months, mainly driven by demand for semiconductors and AI-related products and price increases by companies. Imports increased by 18.9% due to delays in the arrival of crude oil due to oil tankers detouring through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait; the trade deficit narrowed to ¥53.66 billion (approximately US$3.4 billion), still higher than the expected ¥18.1 billion. The Japanese government expects crude oil purchases in October to return to the same period last year, which may push up import bills.
Editorial Comment
Japan's exports have grown for 13 consecutive months, reflecting that AI-related external demand is still resilient. However, the narrowing of the trade deficit in September was mainly due to the short-term disturbance of delayed crude oil arrival. The subsequent recovery of imports may change the trade balance. Traders need to distinguish this temporary factor from real export trends and pay attention to the potential impact of the data on the yen exchange rate, as well as the indirect transmission of changes in global technology demand on risk appetite and safe-haven assets.

Japan's economy is at a tipping point toward shifting to persistent wage-driven inflation, Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama said on Wednesday, adding there were no differences between the government and the Bank of Japan. She pointed out that the current price rise is mainly driven by import costs, and tax cuts and family subsidies are aimed at easing cost of living pressure; a Reuters survey showed that most economists expect the central bank to raise interest rates to 1.50% in December.
Editorial Comment
Japan's Finance Minister stated that he had no differences with the central bank and emphasized that wage-driven inflation is approaching, which strengthened market expectations for the normalization of monetary policy. Most economists polled by Reuters expected to raise interest rates to 1.50% in December. This is echoed. For the yen, consistency in policy communication may reduce uncertainty, but attention needs to be paid to whether wage and price data can continue to verify this judgment, rather than relying solely on official statements.

Editorial Comment
The news involves the potential merger of two high-profile technology companies, which may trigger a re-evaluation of market sentiment towards the technology sector and risk assets. Traders need to pay attention to the potential disruptions to U.S. dollar liquidity and gold hedging demand as a result of the event, as well as the associated changes in market risk appetite.
Super Micro released preliminary third-quarter financial results ahead of schedule, predicting revenue of $18.5 billion to $19.5 billion, higher than previous guidance of $14.5 billion to $15.5 billion and analysts' expectations of about $15 billion.
Editorial Comment
Super Micro's preliminary revenue significantly exceeded expectations, easing market concerns about the quality of its earnings and driving sentiment toward the technology sector to recover. This change may weaken short-term safe-haven demand, and traders need to pay attention to the potential impact of a rebound in risk appetite on gold and U.S. dollar-related currency pairs.

UBS proposes three tests for AI deals, arguing that big tech companies will need to demonstrate this earnings season that AI spending is turning into revenue, profits and returns. Meta will open big tech earnings after the U.S. close on Wednesday, with three tests including core business health, AI monetization beyond adoption and real returns on infrastructure spending. UBS expects strong fundamentals in the third quarter, but high expectations may cause company-specific fluctuations, and remains optimistic about hyperscale manufacturers and high-quality semiconductor hardware companies.
Editorial Comment
The three tests proposed by UBS focus the financial reports of large technology stocks on core business health, AI monetization and capital expenditure returns, which will affect the market's judgment on risk assets and dollar liquidity. For gold and foreign exchange traders, if Meta and subsequent technology stocks experience marginal changes in fundamentals and return verification under high expectations, it may be transmitted to gold and the U.S. dollar through the real interest rate of U.S. debt and risk sentiment. It is worth paying attention to the source of fluctuation rather than the performance of a single performance.

Musk said on the SpaceX earnings call that a merger with Tesla would be a good idea but is far from certain, and that any deal would require the support of shareholders including 50% of all Tesla shares. He also said that demand for AI computing is likely to remain strong, with older Nvidia H100 chips now renting out more than new ones, and warned that the shortage of computing power needed to develop superintelligence could last for a long time.
Editorial Comment
Musk’s statement on the shortage of H100 rentals and super-intelligent computing power provides a micro signal for the tight demand for AI infrastructure. This kind of supply-demand contradiction may affect the safe-haven appeal of gold and the flow of funds in the foreign exchange market through the risk preference channel. Although the merger topic has not been determined, it involves Tesla's equity expectations, which may amplify the fluctuations of related assets. Traders need to pay attention to its potential disruption to US dollar liquidity and risk sentiment.

Other data center companies such as Nvidia-backed Firmus have canceled IPOs, and Gartner analysts believe the AI race could eventually shrink to a duopoly.
Editorial Comment
This news shows that the AI theme has encountered a periodic trust test in the global capital market. Many data center IPOs have been cold, which may reflect the convergence of risk appetite. For the gold foreign exchange market, this prompts the need to pay attention to the transmission of sentiment fluctuations in risky assets to safe-haven assets, as well as the potential impact of changes in the financing environment on risk-sensitive currencies. Traders can use this as an observation point to measure market risk preferences.

In its long-term capital market assumptions report, JP Morgan predicts that Bitcoin will have an annualized return of 10% over the next ten years, with its baseline forecast outperforming its returns on U.S. stocks, bonds and gold. The bank also gave Bitcoin’s annualized return between bull and bear ranges of -9.7% to 17%, and maintained a cautious attitude, believing that volatility and unstable asset correlations still prevent it from being widely included in investment portfolios.
Editorial Comment
JPMorgan Chase has set Bitcoin’s benchmark annualized return at 10% over the next ten years and believes it will outperform U.S. stocks, bonds and gold. This provides traders with a reference for observing how institutions price digital assets relative to gold in the long term. At the same time, the bank's bull-bear range span is large and it maintains a cautious attitude, suggesting that volatility and unstable asset correlations may still limit the stability of Bitcoin as an alternative to gold.

Bitcoin has fallen about 1.1% in the past 24 hours, and the spot U.S. Bitcoin ETF saw a net inflow of about $527 million on Monday, the largest in a month. BlackRock IBIT attracted US$665 million in a single day, the largest single-day inflow in more than a year, while Fidelity and Grayscale experienced net outflows. QCP Capital analysts believe that further weakness in U.S. stocks may be transmitted to the crypto market, and if it continues, it may threaten the $80,000 support level; the Ethereum ETF had a net outflow of $103 million on the same day, the fourth consecutive day of outflows.
Editorial Comment
The disturbance of the stock market correction contrasts with the strong net inflows of Bitcoin ETFs. Funds are concentrated in Bitcoin while Ethereum continues to outflow, indicating that the internal demand in the crypto market is not fully expanding. This differentiation suggests that risk appetite may become fragile. If U.S. stocks weaken further, the alternative demand for traditional safe-haven assets such as gold deserves attention. Traders need to pay attention to changes in the correlation between gold and Bitcoin under the transmission of macro risks.

The Indian rupee rebounded sharply last week after the Reserve Bank of India passed foreign exchange intervention and regulatory measures, but the article believes that rising oil prices and foreign capital outflows made this rebound unsustainable. Technically, the USD/INR daily line has received buying orders near the support of 95.10. The upper resistance is at 96.10, and the 4-hour resistance is at 95.53; if it falls below 95.10, it will look towards 94.00. Short-term catalysts include U.S. initial jobless claims on Thursday and U.S. Flash PMIs on Friday.
Editorial Comment
The Reserve Bank of India has pushed the rupee to rebound through intervention and regulatory measures, but rising oil prices and foreign capital outflows may weaken this support. Traders need to pay attention to the persistence of intervention and pressure on India's current account. If the U.S. initial jobless claims and Flash PMI data disturb the U.S. dollar and U.S. bond yields, it will have a spillover effect on emerging market currencies, including the rupee.

The deepening sell-off in AI stoked market jitters, with South Korea's KOSPI down nearly 4% and CoreWeave down 4% in pre-market trading on U.S. stocks. Bitcoin has retreated slightly over the past 24 hours but is still holding on to $81,000, while gold is down nearly 1% to just over $4,110 an ounce. Brent and WTI crude rose 2% each, while the long-term U.S. Treasury bond ETF TLT rose 0.5%, attracting defensive funds.
Bitcoin fell to about $81,400 on Tuesday, down 0.5% since midnight UTC, despite an inflow of $526.6 million into a U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF on Monday, the largest single-day inflow in nearly a month.

SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics fell, and worries about AI spending dragged down chip stocks; Deribit options put volume was more than twice that of call options, and the $80,000 put option was the most active on October 30, showing traders seeking downside protection.
Editorial Comment
Bitcoin and Asian chip stocks are under simultaneous pressure, and the overlay options market has a bearish tilt, indicating that the short-term sentiment of risk assets is becoming cautious. This change in risk appetite may provide support for safe-haven assets such as gold and affect the relative performance of safe-haven currencies in the foreign exchange market. Large inflows into spot ETFs and active put options coexist, prompting traders to pay attention to the impact of cross-market volatility transmission on gold and major currency pairs.

AI stocks rebounded on Monday, but pressure on the credit side persisted, with CoreWeave ending lower, its 2032 bond yield yielding about 14.9%, and Oracle's five-year CDS rising to 315 basis points. Goldman Sachs points to divergence in AI-related high-yield bonds, with neocloud and cutting-edge lab companies at the center of funding cost debate. Rosenberg called Oracle the canary in the coal mine, and a downgrade to junk would be the clearest sign of contagion.
Editorial Comment
The divergence in sentiment between AI stocks and bonds shows that market concerns about the financing costs of highly leveraged AI companies have not subsided due to the rebound in the stock market. CoreWeave bond yields and Oracle CDS remain high. If credit stress spreads to the wider market, it may re-ignite the demand for safe havens. At that time, we need to pay attention to the performance of safe haven assets such as gold and the US dollar. The Oracle downgrade risk mentioned by Rosenberg is a key variable in observing whether credit events will become systemic transmission.

These projects have been supported by Nvidia, Blackstone and SoftBank. Investors are not convinced about the sustainability of capital expenditures.
Editorial Comment
The failure of South Korea's IPO coupled with the shelving of three data center IPOs that month reflects that the market's doubts about the sustainability of AI capital expenditures are crystallizing, which may curb risk appetite. Traders can pay attention to the indirect impact of this cold financing signal on U.S. dollar liquidity expectations and gold hedging demand.

Editorial Comment
JPMorgan Chase has set the annualized return benchmark of Bitcoin over the next ten years above gold and regards it as a hedging tool for monetary easing. This provides traders with a reference for institutions’ long-term appeal of gold alternative assets. The gold market needs to pay attention to the impact of this expectation on the diversion of some allocation funds. At the same time, the report emphasizes that Bitcoin is not currently regarded as a portfolio diversification tool, and its unstable correlation may cause safe-haven funds to still prefer gold.

Reuters expects the PBOC to set the USD/CNY reference exchange rate at 6.6813, with the central parity rate in recent months turning from a long-term weaker than expected to accelerating strength and narrowing the gap with expectations. The central parity rate increased for eight consecutive trading days in September, the longest since 2023, and hit the strongest level since February 2023; the onshore RMB was the strongest since January 2023, and the offshore RMB hit levels since July 2022. The latest central parity rate is still more than 500 points lower than expected in a Reuters survey, indicating that the central bank is allowing appreciation at its own pace rather than letting it go completely.
Editorial Comment
The central parity rate has been continuously raised and hit a multi-year high, indicating that the central bank is shifting from restraining appreciation to conditionally guiding it, which has enhanced expectations for the flexibility of the RMB exchange rate. For the gold market, the strengthening of the RMB may affect the holding cost of domestic gold and the price difference between domestic and foreign prices, so we need to pay attention to changes in physical demand; for foreign exchange traders, we should focus on observing whether the deviation between the subsequent central parity and market expectations continues to narrow, and the sustainability of the central bank's guidance.

Gold is trying to hit the $4,200 mark again, but bond markets will still have a decisive influence on the ensuing rebound. Hot inflation data last week led traders to predict that the probability of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates in December was about 90%, and the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield was still above 5%, putting pressure on the non-interest-bearing asset gold. Technically, $4,100 is the key support below. If it falls below, it may look towards the psychological barrier of $4,000; if it stands at $4,200, it needs to break through the $4,239 area.
Editorial Comment
Gold is testing high territory again, but the core variable is not technical but the bond market. Hot inflation has strengthened expectations for a rate hike by the Federal Reserve in December, and the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield remains high, continuing to put opportunity cost pressure on non-interest-bearing gold. Traders should focus on observing the interaction between U.S. bond yields and key support and resistance, rather than simply pursuing price breakthroughs. In particular, they need to guard against the constraints on the sustainability of the rebound caused by rising yields.

Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has denied outside criticism that she has caused a weak yen and high interest rates, and said she will build confidence in the yen by building a strong economy. During her administration, Japanese government bond yields rose to multi-decade highs and the yen fell to its lowest level since 1986, prompting Tokyo and Washington to enter the market to support the yen. She also said that the amount of government bond issuance will be appropriately controlled, saying that the total amount of government bond issuance in 2026 will remain unchanged from the original budget plan.
Editorial Comment
The Japanese Prime Minister denied accusations of a weak yen and high interest rates and promised to control the issuance of government bonds, providing a policy-level explanation framework for the recent weakness of the yen and high Japanese bond yields. However, the market still needs to observe whether his statement can stabilize expectations for confidence in the yen. With the yen at multi-year lows and signs of official intervention, foreign exchange traders need to pay attention to the consistency between policy and actual operations, as well as the potential spillover of Japanese bond supply pressure on yields and exchange rates. For gold, violent fluctuations in the Japanese yen may strengthen the need for safe-haven allocations, but it needs to be comprehensively judged based on the trend of the US dollar and the pace of intervention.
