Gold Price Rises after the NFP data Released

by Didimax Team

The NFP data has been released several days ago. Based on that announcement, it can be seen that the data is weaker than what people are expected. That was 559k vs 659k. 

Meanwhile, the jobless rate also declined. That became 5.8% vs 5.9% just like what participants are expected. That data is for sure has an impact to other movements and conditions. 

Elsewhere, the average income beat the expectation in the monthly and yearly level. This situation becomes a sign of a report which is quite mixed as the whole condition. 

 

The USD was Underpressured Before

However, the index of USD was underpressured before. It was because the market participants were dissapointed by the expectation. It is especially after the strong ADP report. 

It was stated before that the ADP report is not always becoming the best predictor from the NFP released. That makes the USD bull is over-exposed. The different news comes from the gold. 

That commodity price is increasing significantly as its daily progress. This situation happened amidst the weakening USD. Meanwhile, the treasury yield result sees the riskier reaction so far. 

They experienced a decline. Before, gold was in a quite different condition. That commodity slipped for about 2.3 percent on Thursday this week. It became a hard moment for this precious metal. 

The Factors that Affected the Gold Price

There are some reasons why the gold could slip so significant. The examples are like the United States job data and the service sector which is better than the expectation. 

The condition like that pushed the dollaf higher and made the expectation due to a strong economy reading can light up a discussion about tapering again. It is known that The Fed has been talking about that before. 

The declining gold price some days ago was also affecting the other metals in the market.  One of them is silver which was slipped by 4.3 percent. Meanwhile, platinum also experienced the same thing.

That commodity felt by 3.7%. The spot of gold declined by 1.9% in $1.871 per ounce. Before, it was falling to its lowest level since 20 of May in $1.864. That was the complete data released by the institution. 

The Data was Going Better

The related parties have been escaping from the difficulties. The data was going better. There are some problems related to the inflation which can dampen so many things aroubd them. 

However, these people were doing all the best that they can do. The better data than the expectation was succesfull to make the traders survive. However, they still have the further plan. 

They are preparing any possibilities due to the statements which can be made by the Federal reserve. It is especially about the declining or increasing interest rate in the future. 

That may be happened although not in a quick time. Before, the index of dollar increased by 0.7 percent which made the gold was quite expensive for the other currencies holders in the market. 

The Sign of the Recovered Employment Market

Besides the situation above, the US treasury yield was also better. That becomes a sign that the employment market can be recovered soon. How about the unemployment rate claim in America? 

That rate is also decreasing and it was under 400,000 last week. Meanwhile, the businessmen increased their recruitment in May. It can be seen from the ADP employment report in the market. 

The ADP result is stronger than the expectation. That showed the same bounce in the salary lists that will be announced some days later. Before, the worse result has been pushing the USD higher. 

That was also triggering the liquidation of gold in a long term period. The recent focus is in the United States non-farm payroll that will be released some days later.
