Fundamental Analysis:- Cautious optimism surrounding the phase-one deal got another puzzle to solve during the weekend, which came from the South China Morning Post (SCMP). The Chinese media conveyed Beijing’s readiness to follow the promises on the condition that the US behaves seriously. The tone of the article, as usual, sounds like the warning to Washington despite the US President Donald Trump’s cheering up for the nearness to the signing.
On the other hand, the yellow metal should have benefited from Bloomberg’s communication of the US “counter strikes” targeting Iraqi and Syrian spots two-days after its civilian contractor’s killing by the rocket attack on an Iraqi military base.
