OPEC+: What to expect from the upcoming meeting
The text analyzes expectations ahead of Sunday’s OPEC+ meeting, highlighting that no significant production changes are anticipated. Oil prices are shaped mainly by geopolitical factors, especially ceasefire speculation in Ukraine. Internal tensions center on Iraq’s push for a higher quota, with the most probable result being only a modest technical adjustment to preserve group cohesion.

Growing Oversupply in the Global Oil Market
Global oil supply pressures are rising as “oil on water” volumes surge, reflecting growing difficulty in placing crude on final markets.

Gold (XAU/USD): Short-term bullish reversal triggered after 8% sell-off
Gold (XAU/USD) saw a sharp 8% intraday sell-off after reaching a record high of US$4,381, triggering a potential short-term bullish reversal. The decline likely stemmed from stop-loss triggers on leveraged long positions. Despite the volatility, the medium-term uptrend remains intact, supported by falling US real yields. Key support lies at US$4,056/4,000, with a rebound above US$4,203 potentially paving the way toward US$4,267–US$4,455 resistance levels.

USD/JPY: US-Japan yield spread breakdown signals further yen strength ahead in the near term
The USD/JPY lost bullish steam after peaking at 153.28 on 10 October, sliding 2.2% to 149.90 as U.S. dollar momentum faded. Political uncertainty over Japan’s LDP leadership and a breakdown in the 10-year U.S.-Japan sovereign yield spread below 2.47% reinforced yen strength. A failed bullish breakout above 150.50 signals downside risks, with near-term support at 149.05–148.55.

EUR/USD: Recent euro weakness stalled at 1.1530 key medium-term support with a minor “Double Bottom” bullish breakout
EUR/USD’s recent decline has likely found support, with the pair rebounding from 1.1530 — a key medium-term level, after forming a minor “Double Bottom” bullish breakout. Despite political instability in France and a temporary rise in Eurozone sovereign risk premia, improving stability and narrowing sovereign yield spreads (French/German) suggest renewed euro strength. Technically, EUR/USD remains in an “Ascending Triangle” formation, reinforcing the medium-term bullish trend since January 2025.

Hang Seng Index: At inflection zone for bullish reversal, medium-term uptrend intact
The Hang Seng Index is approaching an inflection zone for a potential bullish reversal, with its medium-term uptrend intact. Despite a 9% pullback on renewed US-China trade tensions, improving China inflation data, led by rising core CPI and easing PPI declines, has reduced deflation risks. Technically, the Hong Kong 33 CFD Index holds above key support at 25,140, with bullish momentum targeting 26,935 and 27,500.
