Well, a lot happened yesterday. The first one is the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Needless to say the details. Watch more news and pay attention to the progress. At present, it seems that the Palestinian-Israeli conflict will not end in a short time. The key point is whether it will bring trouble to the United States. It is reported that Israel has asked the United States for 10 billion U.S. dollars in aid. Giving the money means that Ukraine has truly become an abandoned child. Putin woke up laughing in bed. It is said that Putin went to Beijing yesterday to attend the Belt and Road Conference. The Belt and Road Initiative has been developing for many years. The reason for this grand occasion has a lot to do with the international geopolitical situation in the past two years. The Belt and Road Initiative will become a life-saving straw for all developing countries. Although the United States is working on the India-India Corridor, it is of no use. At present, no Western country has spent so much money to build this corridor. To put it bluntly, it is Biden's pie. Then there was the release of US retail sales data last night. This data was hilarious. The previous value was 0.6, the expected value was 0.3, and the announced value was 0.7! The Fed's management of retail prices last month was abysmal, in large part because of soaring crude oil prices. The U.S. dollar did not rise much after the data was released, but U.S. bond yields have indeed risen since the 10-year period. It seems that interest rate hike expectations are about to increase again. U.S. bond yields hit new highs again. After the Palestinian-Israeli conflict broke out, they finally fell a little, and the monthly retail rate fell again. 33 trillion debt, 4.8% interest. Think about how much money the United States has to pay back. Another thing is that the transit fee of the Suez Canal is directly increased by 10%. The natural geographical environment makes the Suez Canal price increase very arbitrarily. No matter how expensive it is, it has to be passed. Anyway, the money is paid by the end users. It is worth mentioning that crude oil is a very important cargo on this route. If transit fees increase, the sales price of crude oil will naturally not be too low. Finally, gold broke through the trend line suppression. I hope to see gold at US$2,500 per ounce. However, the rise in U.S. bond yields has put some pressure on gold's upward trend. However, fierce geopolitical conflicts and expectations of future crises have given gold a boost. Who can do that? I don't know whether to win, I only know that gold has broken through the long-term suppression.
