After Powell’s speech, the yield on 10-year US Treasury bonds rose in the short term. Spot gold rose by $7 in 5 minutes.
  • The United States still expects two interest rate cuts this year: the US PPI unexpectedly fell in April, and US retail sales barely grew in April. Traders slightly increased their bets on two interest rate cuts before the end of 2025. After the release of macroeconomic data, the US dollar index fell in the short term.
