Huatai Futures: Gold price fluctuations slow down, market trading on increased expectations of U.S. economic stagflation

# TranslationGold price volatility has slowed within the week, with weaker momentum at the beginning of the week. The core reason may lie in market concerns about inflation against the backdrop of surging energy prices, as well as the liquidity tightening effects triggered by significant fluctuations in equity markets. However, due to disappointing non-farm payroll data, the market may be more inclined in the short term to trade on U.S. economic stagflation, which is favorable for gold prices. Silver follows similar logic to gold, but its volatility is relatively larger; therefore, while continued dip-buying for hedging purposes remains viable operationally, greater attention needs to be paid to position control and strict execution of stop-losses.
