    Frank Elderson: From climate and natural risks to economic resilience and competitiveness

    Frank Elderson, a member of the Executive Board of the European Central Bank, said at the Green Swan 2026 conference that climate and natural risks have become structural macro factors affecting growth, inflation and financial stability.

    Editorial Comment

    The Executive Committee of the European Central Bank defines climate and natural risks as structural macro factors that affect growth, inflation and financial stability, which prompts the market to incorporate non-traditional risks into long-term considerations of the euro area's policy path and asset pricing. Traders can pay attention to whether the policy uncertainty and financing channel obstacles faced by green investment will disrupt capital expenditure and productivity in the euro area, thereby affecting the mid- to long-term risk premium of the euro as well as gold’s hedging and real interest rate logic.

    U.S. stock futures try to rebound after tech stocks plummet, but real test still lies ahead

    U.S. stock futures rebounded at the beginning of the week, with Nasdaq futures rising 1.4% and S&P 500 futures rising 0.8%, after a sharp decline in technology stocks caused Nasdaq to fall more than 4% last week and the S&P 500 to fall about 2%.

    Editorial Comment

    The rebound in U.S. stock futures reflects the market's attempt to restore risk appetite after the sharp decline in technology stocks, but the summary links subsequent trends to U.S. bond yields and this week's technology stock earnings reports, especially the AI ​​spending and profits of companies such as Meta. For the gold and foreign exchange markets, this means that the linkage between risk sentiment and U.S. bond interest rates is still the dominant short-term variable, and traders should pay attention to the disruption of financial reports to hedging demand and U.S. dollar liquidity.

    China’s GDP grew 4.5% in the third quarter, beating expectations

    China's GDP grew 4.5% year-on-year in the third quarter, beating market expectations and breaking away from a nearly four-year low in the previous quarter. Manufacturing and exports, especially the production of AI-related high-tech products, were the main drivers, with a nine-month trade surplus of nearly $940 billion. However, fixed asset investment fell by 7.2%, retail sales increased by 2.6%, and consumption and private investment were weak.

    Editorial Comment

    The higher-than-expected GDP in the third quarter was mainly driven by manufacturing and exports, but consumption and private investment data were weak, indicating that the recovery of domestic demand is still uneven. Traders need to pay attention to the potential impact of this structural temperature difference on RMB exchange rate expectations and subsequent policy rhythm.

    DBi founder Beer: Managed futures strategy may have advantages over bonds

    DBi co-founder Andrew Beer said managed futures strategies may be better than bonds in hedging stock volatility. The iMGP DBi Managed Futures Strategy ETF he manages is up nearly 19% so far this year. This strategy can go long and short global markets and perform better during periods of volatility. Nate Geraci of NovaDius reminded that bonds still play a role in diversifying investments and that managed futures ETFs may also experience a phase of underperformance.

    Editorial Comment

    Managed futures strategies perform better during periods of volatility. If used by more investors to hedge stock fluctuations, it may divert some of the allocation demand for traditional bonds and gold and other safe-haven assets. The hedging pricing logic of gold and the U.S. dollar in risk events deserves re-examination. Traders can pay attention to the linkage between changes in the scale of such strategies and the gold and foreign exchange markets, but they also need to be aware that the strategy itself has the risk of periodic poor performance.

    Berkshire's stock price bucked the trend and rose, hitting its highest level since Buffett announced he would step down as CEO

    Berkshire Hathaway's stock price bucked the trend on Friday and closed at its highest level since Buffett announced his resignation as CEO, with Class A $798,000 and Class B $532.02, both 1.4% lower than the historical closing high. The company disclosed that it has invested an additional $330 million in Bending Spoons. Adding in the $600 million from the IPO in July, the overall market value of the position exceeds $1.4 billion, with a floating profit of 55.3%.

    Editorial Comment

    Berkshire's stock price bucked the trend and was close to a record high after Buffett stepped down as CEO and disclosed additional investments, reflecting the market's recognition of the new management's capital allocation pace, which may weaken some risk aversion. For the gold market, attention can be paid to whether improved risk appetite creates alternative pressure on hedging demand, but the news itself does not constitute a direct trading signal.

    Berkshire invests more than $900 million in Bending Spoons

    Berkshire's cumulative investment in Bending Spoons exceeds US$900 million, including a US$330 million increase in holdings disclosed on Wednesday, which pushed its stock price up 41% at one time, giving it a market value of approximately US$30 billion.

    Editorial Comment

    Berkshire’s investment in Bending Spoons exceeded US$900 million, indicating that some funds are still actively looking for opportunities to integrate software assets marginalized by AI, and risk appetite has not completely subsided. For the gold foreign exchange market, this case can be used as a profile of risk preferences and capital allocation. Traders need to pay attention to whether the activity of such mergers and acquisitions continues, and the transmission of Berkshire's movements to risk sentiment in the foreign exchange market, rather than just focusing on the price of a single asset.

    S&P 500 equal-weighted index rises for second consecutive week, technology sector posts worst week in 1-1/2 years

    The S&P 500 technology sector recorded its worst weekly performance in a year and a half, with the S&P 500 rising for a second consecutive week, indicating that the market's leading power is shifting from technology stocks to broader stocks.

    Editorial Comment

    The S&P 500 equal-weighted index rose for a second consecutive week, while the technology sector recorded its worst week in a year and a half, indicating that funds are rotating from concentrated holdings of large technology stocks to a wider range of stocks. For the gold and foreign exchange markets, this internal differentiation is more biased towards the redistribution of risk appetite rather than the overall contraction. Traders need to pay attention to whether it triggers corresponding changes in US dollar liquidity or hedging demand, rather than simply treating it as a single risk event.

    Tesla Roadster release bolsters Tesla-SpaceX merger speculation

    Tesla released the Roadster flying supercar at SpaceX’s Texas test site, triggering more market speculation on the possibility of a merger between Tesla and SpaceX. Barclays predicts that Musk may announce the acquisition of Tesla by SpaceX in a stock exchange before December this year. SpaceX is currently valued at US$2 trillion and Tesla’s market value is US$1.4 trillion.

    Editorial Comment

    This news may increase market expectations for the integration of Musk assets, thereby affecting risk appetite and capital flows in the foreign exchange market, and may be transmitted to gold's hedging demand through risk sentiment. Traders should pay attention to subsequent developments in merger speculation and official statements, as changes in related transaction structures or valuations may trigger cross-asset fluctuations.

    Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank, issued a statement at the IMFC meeting: The euro area economy remains resilient but inflation risks are tilted to the upside.

    Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank, issued a statement at the IMFC meeting saying that the European Central Bank will raise interest rates by 25 basis points again in September after June to respond to inflation driven up by energy shocks. She gave an outlook for overall inflation to rise to 3.8% and core inflation to 2.5% in September, with staff forecasting euro zone growth of 0.9%, 1.4% and 1.5% in 2026, 2027 and 2028 respectively.

    Editorial Comment

    European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde confirmed that interest rates will be raised by 25 basis points again in September to deal with energy-driven inflation, and gave an outlook of overall inflation of 3.8% and core inflation of 2.5%, indicating that the policy stance is still tight. This statement deserves attention for its support logic for the euro exchange rate and the potential impact of inflation resilience on the gold real interest rate environment; in the future, we need to pay attention to the balance between the weak economic growth forecast and policy tightening in the Eurozone.

    Brian Sullivan: Why the 'real' price of oil could be $30 to $40 higher than now

    Brian Sullivan believes the "true" cost of oil has reached $125 a barrel or more because buying physical crude and futures contract prices are two different things and transportation costs have risen significantly. He gave the example that the charter price for a VLCC from the U.S. Gulf Coast to China reached $76 million last week, which is equivalent to about $38 per barrel of crude oil on top of the oil price. He also pointed to gains in tanker-owner stocks and tipped Shell to hit new highs and RBC to focus on expanding U.S. LNG export profits.

    Editorial Comment

    The news reminds traders to distinguish futures prices from the "true" cost of physical crude oil: supertanker freight rates have significantly increased physical prices after conversion, meaning that energy trading profits and refining costs deviate significantly from futures quotes. For the gold and foreign exchange markets, this physical premium may affect inflation expectations and the terms of trade of relevant economies through the import cost channel. It is worth paying attention to whether freight rates continue to be high and the performance of oil tankers and LNG-related assets, rather than just tracking futures oil prices.

    U.S. bond yields still fell 9.9 bps after PPI exceeded expectations, and the U.S. dollar fell across the board

    The U.S. PPI in September was 6.3%, higher than the expected 5.3%, but the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield still fell 9.9 bps to 5.09%, and the U.S. dollar weakened across the board. There are rumors in the market that an AI-themed fund may have been liquidated. Its AUM may be $40 billion, with heavy holdings including Nebius, Bloom, Lumentum and CoreWeave. The decline in yields was interpreted as the market's concerns about AI-related credit risks, and attention will be paid to Federal Reserve Warsh's speech at the IMF roundtable.

    Editorial Comment

    The decline in U.S. bond yields coincided with the overall weakening of the U.S. dollar, breaking the normal reaction after inflation data exceeded expectations, indicating that the market's short-term trading focus turned to the credit risks caused by rumors of AI-themed fund liquidations. For gold, the weakening of the U.S. dollar constitutes a supporting variable, but it is more necessary to observe whether credit risks evolve into liquidity shocks, which often complicates gold's hedging logic. The follow-up speech by the Federal Reserve Warsh at the IMF roundtable is a key window for judging changes in policy expectations.

    Short covering became the main reason for today’s market rebound

    The rebound in U.S. stocks was mainly driven by short covering, rather than the market's repricing of AI or a reversal in yields. Nike, which led the gains, rose 6.5%, and Lululemon rose 6.3%, both of which were the worst-performing stocks this year. The decline in yields drove Pool Corp to rise 8%, Zillow to rise 10.2%, and XHB ETF to rise 2.9%. There are also rumors of VARA AI fund liquidation (scale $40 billion AUM), and inflation data is on the hot side, and oil prices have risen another 3%. Bond market buying seems counterintuitive, and potential fund liquidation may distort prices.

    Editorial Comment

    This news shows that the rebound in U.S. stocks is mainly driven by short covering and falling yields, rather than improving fundamentals. There are also rumors of potential fund liquidation, and market signals may be distorted. For gold and foreign exchange, we need to be wary of the amplified fluctuations and liquidity changes caused by this distortion, and pay attention to whether the deviation between hedging demand and real interest rate signals can be converged.

    Inflation data were strong but the dollar fell from an 18-month high, indicating that the market may have digested some tightening expectations in advance, and marginal changes in interest rate expectations became the key to affecting the exchange rate. This contrast prompts the need to pay attention to whether the linkage between the U.S. dollar and U.S. bond yields is weakening, and the corresponding adjustment of gold's sensitivity to real interest rates. Traders can combine subsequent policy signals to observe whether market expectations are further revised.

    The S&P 500 equal-weighted strategy will continue to underperform the market capitalization-weighted index in 2026, and the high weight of technology stocks will increase concentration risks again. As of now, the equal-weighted index has underperformed for nearly four consecutive years, with a single-month decline of more than 4% in September, the longest losing streak since 2022; technology stocks still account for nearly 40% of the standard index, while only about 16% of the equal-weighted index. Experts recommend not to hold equal-weighted ETFs alone, but to pair market capitalization-weighted ETFs such as VOO and SPYM with weighted products such as RSP and EQL, supplemented by mid-cap stocks, low-tech, low-correlated assets and short-duration investment-grade bonds.

    Silver production at Mexico's San Dimas mine drops 41% and production halted

    Silver production at Mexico's San Dimas mine fell 41% and production has now ceased.

    Editorial Comment

    Silver production at the San Dimas mine in Mexico dropped by 41% and production was suspended, directly pointing to a contraction in the silver supply side. As a precious metal, changes in silver's supply and demand may affect gold and the U.S. dollar-denominated precious metals sector through market sentiment. Traders can pay attention to whether this event is included in broader supply expectations. However, the information from a single mine alone is not enough to judge the overall impact, and it needs to be combined with more data for observation.

    European stocks end mixed, UK leads gains, bond yields fall

    Major European stock indexes closed mixed, with the UK's FTSE 100 leading the gains, up 1.08%, France's CAC up 0.78%, Germany's DAX up 0.27%, and Spain and Italy closing down. During the same period, European 10-year government bond yields generally fell, with Spain and Italy leading the decline.

    Editorial Comment

    The divergence of European stock indexes and bond yields over the same period shows that the market is pricing the fall in yields unevenly: the British stock market led the gains while Spain and Italy closed down, reflecting differences in risk appetite within the euro zone. For gold, the general fall in bond yields has reduced holding costs, but its support needs to be observed in conjunction with changes in risk aversion behind the stock market differentiation. The foreign exchange market can pay attention to the relative performance of the pound and the euro under the divergence of stock indexes and changes in interest rate spreads.

    USDCAD failed to break the short position, how to judge the technical follow-up?

    USDCAD bears once fell below the 1.4192–1.4204 support zone since September 30 and hit an intraday low of 1.4171, but quickly recovered within the same hour, and the attempt to break the level failed to continue. If it can stand and hold 1.4204 in the future, focus on 1.42205 and 1.42416 at the top; if it falls back below 1.4192 and maintain it, focus on 1.4171 and 1.4130–1.41532 at the bottom.

    Editorial Comment

    USDCAD shorts' attempts to break through the key support area failed to continue. The rapid recovery showed that there was some buying below the area, and the shorts failed to form an effective breakthrough. Follow-up attention will be paid to whether the stabilization of the price above the support zone can be confirmed to measure the attenuation of the short momentum; if it falls again and remains below the lower edge, it is necessary to track whether the short momentum has re-accumulated. The current verification signal of the long-short transition deserves more attention than the direction itself.

    Economists say red-hot PPI shows Fed's work isn't done yet

    U.S. PPI rose 1.3% month-on-month and 6.3% year-on-year in September. Wall Street economists accordingly raised their September core PCE forecast to 0.32% from 0.25% in August, and warned that the Federal Reserve still has the risk of continuing to raise interest rates. The core PCE annual rate is expected to rise to 3.1%; market pricing shows that the probability of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates at the end of this month is 29%, and the probability of raising interest rates at least once before December is 91%.

    Editorial Comment

    PPI exceeded expectations and led to an upward revision of the core PCE forecast. The market's pricing for the Federal Reserve to continue raising interest rates has significantly increased. The core PCE forecast for September has been raised to 0.32%. For gold, rising interest rate expectations usually increase the opportunity cost of holding and constitute a headwind, while the US dollar may gain support from the strengthening of interest rate expectations. It is worth paying attention to whether subsequent core PCE data further confirms this logic.

    Dow Jones shows relative strength today

    At a time when technology stocks are under pressure, Dow Jones futures have shown relative technical strength, breaking through the downward channel, receiving buy orders before stepping back in place, recovering the 20-period EMA and returning to the previous value zone. On October 14, the Nasdaq Composite Index fell by about 1.9%, the S&P 500 fell by 1.1%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by only about 0.1%. The healthcare and consumer staples sectors rose by about 2.4% and 2.1% respectively. Analysts believe that this may be a rotation of funds to defensive sectors. Traders are paying attention to whether the 52,361 area can be held. The upper reference is the recent high of 52,612.

    Editorial Comment

    The relative strength of the Dow coincides with the strength of defensive sectors, indicating that funds are rotating from technology stocks to low-volatility sectors, which usually reflects the phased convergence of market risk appetite. For the gold and foreign exchange markets, attention needs to be paid to whether this rotation continues, and the impact of changes in risk aversion on the short-term linkage between the US dollar and gold; Technically, whether the 52,361 area of ​​the Dow can be held is the key to observing the sentiment of risk assets.

    Nvidia gapps lower and tests key support area

    Nvidia stock has retraced 12.54% from its all-time high of $243.37. Today’s low of $212.85 briefly fell below the 100-day moving average of $214.47 and the 38.2% retracement of $213.15 before rebounding to around $217. Holding $214.47 is the key to the continuation of the rebound, and the top needs to break through resistance levels such as $222, $226.14, and $230.63.

Whether the current support can be held and whether the upper resistance can be broken through in sequence are technical road signs for observing the resilience of risk assets.
