Gold Rallies While the Dollar Slides. The Week Ahead

Gold is rallying and the dollar sliding as a weak U.S. jobs report throws the spotlight onto U.S. CPI, with stocks still near record highs. John Kicklighter, StoneX Senior Strategist and Global Head of Content, breaks down the market conditions, themes and top event risks shaping the week ahead. He explains why thin August volume and rising seasonal volatility favor a range bound tape over a clean trend, and why fading strong moves beats chasing breakouts. The rundown spans the U.S. dollar index (DXY), the stalled dollar yen intervention, gold, the VIX and copper at a record high, and the week ahead where U.S. CPI stands out after a soft U.S. jobs report.
