Investment thesis
🔼 Macroeconomic situation. The U.S. economy is showing signs of slowing. In this context, after a two-year cycle of raising the key interest rate, the U.S. Federal Reserve is expected to begin easing monetary policy. It is anticipated that in September, the key rate will be cut by at least 0.25 p.p., followed by several more rounds of cuts in 2024-2025. Fed easing generally leads to a weakening of the dollar, which is favorable for precious metal prices denominated in this currency.
🔼 Geopolitical risks. Ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East keep investors on edge, as there are risks of further escalation. In this context, gold serves as a "safe-haven" asset.
🔼 Historical trends. September has historically been an unfavorable time for the stock market. Stocks and bonds tend to decline during this month, while gold usually performs well.
