Inflation exceeded expectations for the third consecutive time, and Goldman Sachs accordingly raised its forecast for Federal Reserve rate hikes.
Same story, featured below《高盛再添2027年3月美联储加息预期的三个理由》
After Tuesday's hotter-than-expected CPI data, Goldman Sachs adjusted its forecast for the Federal Reserve's rate path, expecting the Fed to tighten policy further.
Editorial Comment
Goldman Sachs' adjustment to its Fed rate-path forecast after the hot CPI data reflects that mainstream institutions' judgments on the pace of policy are being revised as data come in, which directly affects rate expectations and the pricing of dollar assets. For gold and forex traders, the focus should be on whether more institutions follow with upward revisions to tightening expectations, and how changes in rate expectations transmit to the linkage between the dollar and gold prices.

In a Tuesday report, Goldman Sachs expected the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates by 25 bp at its December 8–9 meeting and by another 25 bp in March 2027, while pushing its expectation for the first rate cut to December 2027. This reverses Goldman's late-October judgment to call off the March rate hike. Three consecutive months of hotter-than-expected inflation are the direct cause; a further rise in oil prices or strong January inflation could bring the third hike forward to January.
Editorial Comment
Goldman has now reversed its late-October judgment to remove the March rate hike, reinstated its expectation for a March 2027 rate hike, and delayed the timing of the first cut. The core driver is three consecutive months of firmer inflation, while further oil price gains or strong January inflation could also bring the hike forward. For the gold and forex markets, this revision to policy expectations will affect the market's pricing logic for the Fed's interest-rate cycle, and traders need to closely track expectation shifts driven by inflation and oil price data.

Tucker Carlson said on X that Trump could launch a nuclear strike on Iran's Pickaxe Mountain within days, and said the decision may be made before November 7; the claim has not been independently confirmed.
Editorial Comment
The claim currently comes from a single source and has not been independently confirmed; traders should treat it separately from confirmed information on US-Iran talks and military pressure, and should not price directly off it. If the geopolitical tension narrative continues to build, crude oil risk premium and demand for safe-haven assets may draw attention simultaneously, but the nuclear strike rumor itself lacks verification, and a sentiment reversal after the claim is disproven should be guarded against. Watching for follow-up official statements and confirmation from authoritative sources is key to judging whether this news can translate into a sustained risk premium.

Goldman Sachs raised its December Brent forecast from $90 to $105 and set its WTI forecast at $94, citing elevated supply disruption risks from the Middle East and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The bank also lifted its 2027 average price forecasts for Brent and WTI to $88 and $78 respectively, and added an allowance of 1 million barrels per day of global supply disruption to its base case. Goldman said the market is pricing in a higher risk premium, with many traders seeing a durable diplomatic breakthrough as difficult to achieve.
Editorial Comment
By writing 1 million barrels per day of supply disruption into its base case, Goldman Sachs turns the oil risk premium from a tail assumption into a pricing premise. For gold, higher energy costs push up inflation expectations and make the path of real rates more uncertain, a transmission channel worth tracking closely. In FX, the differing energy import burdens across economies will keep shaping the relative strength of major currencies.

Lula defeated right-wing Senator Flavio Bolsonaro in the Brazilian presidential runoff on Sunday, with about 52% to 48% of the vote. The Tokyo-listed Brazil ETF fell nearly 15% during the session. In the extreme scenario given by Goldman Sachs, the U.S. dollar may rise by 10% against the real, long-term government bond yields may rise by about 200 basis points, and the Brazilian stock market may fall by about 15%. Market attention turns to the opening of the Brazilian local market, where the real, interest rate futures and Bovespa index will verify whether the selling continues.
Editorial Comment
After Lula won the election, Brazilian assets faced repricing pressure. The Tokyo Brazil ETF fell nearly 15% during the session, indicating that the risk aversion sentiment of overseas investors has significantly increased. Under Goldman Sachs' extreme scenario, there is a significant risk of fluctuations in the dollar against the real and long-term government bond yields, and the market focus turns to the verification of selling by the real and interest rate futures after the local opening in Brazil. Foreign exchange traders need to be alert to the disruption of emerging market risk sentiment to the U.S. dollar, and the safe-haven properties of gold may also come under scrutiny in this process.

CoreWeave is facing a crisis of confidence on Wall Street, with its shares down 29% this month, its market value shrinking to about $34 billion, and its unsecured debt yielding about 15%. Shares of similar neocloud companies fell simultaneously, Firmus canceled its IPO due to market volatility, and the high-yield bond market basically froze ahead of the midterm elections. The CEO memo said the company's financing model spans infrastructure-backed borrowings, corporate debt, equity and customer advances, but analysts expect its third-quarter free cash flow to be negative $10.1 billion.
Editorial Comment
CoreWeave debt yields surged to about 15% and the high-yield bond market froze, reflecting the re-pricing of credit risk for asset-heavy technology companies in a high-interest rate environment. This development may strengthen the market's risk aversion sentiment and form a supporting logic for gold. At the same time, attention needs to be paid to whether credit market pressure will be transmitted to broader US dollar liquidity and risk asset fluctuations.

The U.S. AI rebound encountered obstacles in Asia and Europe, with South Korean AI data center company Elice plunging more than 30% on its first day of listing. 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.

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.

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.
