DAILY MARKET REPORT

Today all eyes are on the global AI computer chip leader Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA). The tech giant will be announcing third-quarter earnings results today after market close. Nvidia, the best-performing stock in the S&P this year and the stock hit a fresh all-time high of $505 on Monday. The stock has gained 245% in 2023, pushing its market value above $1.2 trillion.

The company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $3.36 per share and revenues are expected to be $16.18 billion. Investors should also closely monitor the comments from CEO Jensen Huang during the earnings call for indications of Nvidia’s future. It will be interesting to see how the company’s third-quarter results look and the company's forecast for the fourth quarter.

EQUITIES

European stocks made modest gains while US stock futures extended the rally as investors await the minutes from the U.S. Federal Reserve’s last meeting for clues to support expectations that major central banks are done with interest rate hikes. Meanwhile, Richmond Federal Reserve President Thomas Barkin said on Monday, that inflation will likely remain "stubborn" and force the Fed to keep interest rates higher for longer than investors expect.

OIL

Crude prices lost momentum after the recent rebound as investors remained cautious about the prospect of weaker demand. During the previous session, both Brent and WTI oil prices started the new week on a positive note. For this week, the key data for the oil prices today will once again be the weekly EIA crude inventory report, movement of the US dollar and FED meeting minutes.

CURRENCIES
In the currency market, the US dollar index struggles to regain momentum as it seesaws near the lowest levels since late August. The reason for such a significant weakening was a series of softer-than-expected economic data. Moving ahead, the outcome of the minutes from the Fed’s latest policy meeting should be a big piece for the next trend for the king dollar. Meantime, the Japanese yen remains one of the strongest currency pairs of this week.

GOLD

Gold price regains the bullish momentum after a shaky start supported by the downside pressure on safe-haven demand for the greenback. The metal extended the gains on Tuesday morning and touched the two-week high of $1994 before retreating slightly. As of this writing, the metal trades below $1987 and the further direction will depend on FED minutes which will be released later today.

Economic Outlook

On the data front, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) published the Minutes of its November monetary policy meeting. The RBA has revealed it hiked interest rates earlier this month because it feared inflation would not reduce by late 2025. Members were aware that inflation had continued to decline in the nation but underlying inflation was stronger than expected a few months earlier and, quarterly, had picked up slightly, it added.

Moving ahead today, the important events to watch:

US –Existing home sales: GMT – 15.00

US – FOMC minutes: GMT – 19:00

DAILY MARKET REPORT

Gold price climbs to $2000 peak again, as a weaker dollar and a pull-back in US Treasury yields boosted demand for the safe-haven metal. However, the price actions appear to be part of a consolidation phase and the metal is trading sideways. So, it will be hard to rule out a short-term retracement back to $1985 and then $1980/78 if the bulls fail to hold above $2000.
