Inflation Is Eating into Wage Growth in the US—What about Gold?
The unemployment rate for July fell 0.1% sequentially to 3.9%—its lowest point in nearly 18 years.

While the other elements of the US (VOO)(SPY) jobs report have picked up pretty much according to the economists’ expectations—or as Federal Reserve would like—wage growth has not shown as much acceleration.

What Does the Flattening of the Yield Curve Mean for Gold?
A yield curve tracks the yields of Treasury securities maturing at different time periods. The narrowing of the difference between these yields is usually referred to as the “flattening of the yield curve.” The more concerning thing is when the yield curve (BND) inverts, which means that the yields on shorter duration securities increase those on the longer-term securities. The inversion of the yield curve has been a good indicator of an upcoming recession in the past.

Rising interest rates increase the cost of owning a home for prospective buyers, but the impact hasn’t yet been felt by the housing (XHB) markets, as the recent economic data continues to paint a rosy picture for the housing sector.
