On the early morning of May 7th Beijing time, India launched cross-border air strikes against Pakistan, claiming retaliation for the Kashmir terrorist attack. Pakistan immediately shot down 5 Indian military aircraft (including 3 Rafale), resulting in the death of 26 civilians. The most intense military confrontation since 1971 has caused a global capital market shock: spot gold once fell below $3400 per ounce, but due to the United Nations warning that “the world cannot afford the Indo Pakistani war”, the rebound in safe haven sentiment pushed gold prices to around $3380. Even more dramatically, on the 8th, Trump suddenly declared his willingness to be a mediator, but was accused of using mediation to promote arms sales and sow discord between China and Pakistan.

According to the plan, the Gaza Strip will be divided into 6-10 “safe zones” controlled by US private security companies, with the distribution of aid completely taken over by the Israeli military and international organizations such as the United Nations excluded.

On April 25th, senior officials of the Federal Reserve made intensive statements, clearly stating that there is no need to adjust monetary policy at present, and the interest rate remains unchanged in the range of 4.25% -4.5%.

Despite the market’s increasing expectations of interest rate cuts, Powell faces a difficult balance between “controlling inflation” and “stabilizing growth”, making it difficult to release signals of easing in the short term.
