According to PANews, the recent U.S. government shutdown has led to a suspension of key government data releases, raising concerns about the Federal Reserve's independence and increasing demand for safe-haven assets. As a result, gold prices have surged past $4,000. Meanwhile, artificial intelligence stocks have experienced profit-taking due to overvaluation. Despite these developments, the signals remain unchanged, with the strong U.S. dollar showing signs of weakening. Investors are advised to consider buying gold and Bitcoin during dips and prepare for volatility caused by the data gap.
