Technical Analyst, Saxo Bank Group
Silver Spot XAGUSD closed below key support at $18.14 yesterday. Next support is at 16.95 and the 0.764 Fibonacci retracement at around 15.68. However, at the 1.382 projection of the July-August correction at 17.10 a minor bounce could be seen.
A close above demolish the current bearish picture short term XAGUSD needs to close above 19.45
Weekly chart shows how Silver has broken below the 0.618 retracement of Q2-Q3 2020 rally at 18.38 and the support at 18.14. Silver is on course to test key support at 16.95. However, a spike down to the 0.764 retracement at 15.68 is not unlikely.
To reverse this bearish picture a move above 20.85 is needed . First warning of that scenario to play out is if Silver closes above the steep the upper falling trendline
Gold Spot XAUUSD has broken back below its falling trendline. Tried but failed to break back above and is now hit by heavy selling.
0.618 Fibonacci retracement has been broken and Gold is fast approaching its key strong support at 1,860. A support that has been tested several time over the past couple of years.
A close below could lead to further sell-off for XAUUSD to break below the 200 weekly SMA and down to the 0.764 retracement Q2-Q3 2020 rally at around 1,600.
RSI is below 40 with no divergence indication lower levels are likely.
To demolish the bearish picture XAUUSD needs to close above 1,765. First warning of that scenario to play out would be gold to break above the steep falling trendline.
XAUXAG Silver seems to be the leading selling indicator illustrated by Gold/Silver ratio XAUXAG propelling higher reaching 1.382 projection of the July-August correction and 0.50 Fibonacci retracement of the 2020-2021 collapse at around $96. But there could be more upside for XAUXAG which seems to be trading in a wide raising channel.
If XAUXAG closes the week above 96 there is no strong resistance before around 101.84. A spike up to the 0.618 retracement at 130.45 would be likely. To reverse the strong uptrend a close below 86.25 is needed. First warning of that scenario to unfold would be XAUXAG to break below of rising trendline.
AI: The good, the bad, and the bubble
While a deep recession may not be iminent thanks to central bank policy, interest rates will have to stay high for longer, and this will be accompanied by volatility risk from the unwinding of bubbles, especially within AI.
Steen Jakobsen,
Chief Investment Officer
The emergence of advanced AI systems is by far the most surprising event this year, turning everything upside down, while risks and benefits are debated. AI will also become an arms race between the US and China.
Peter Garnry,
Head of Equity Strategy
As China navigates global fragmentation, its cycle of technology application, productivity enhancement, and growth is threatened by US breakthroughs in generative AI, limited computing power, and geopolitical tensions.

Japan’s expertise in semiconductors and robotic integration could be the foundation of AI dominance. Combining two of this year's themes, Japanese equities and artificial intelligence, brings a wave of opportunities.

Market Strategist
The AI fever has turned the technology into a darling, pushing crypto further into no-man’s-land. There are striking similarities between AI and crypto, and if these are to come full circle, AI won't be spared for bubbles.
Mads Eberhardt,
Cryptocurrency Analyst
Stocks related to artificial intelligence (AI) have appeared on investors' radars. Expectations are high, but it may be necessary to consider how to get exposure to AI in a diversified way.
Hans Oudshoorn,

The USD is on its back foot as markets celebrate an eventual Fed rate peak and steady long US yields. The stakes are even higher for the Japanese yen if longer major sovereign yield curves have to price in economic acceleration.
John J. Hardy,
Head of FX Strategy
While commodities, broadly speaking, have faced some tough months, a partial reversal during June could signal that the asset class is getting back on its feet with energy holding up and precious metals with upside potential.
Ole S. Hansen,
Head of Commodity Strategy
As inflation remains high central banks face hard decisions about whether they should keep hiking interest rates or stop. Meanwhile, the rise of AI creates bubble-like conditions that only make the decision harder.

Senior Fixed Income Strategist
