Nasdaq futures jump as megacaps recover; inflation data in focus
Nasdaq futures jumped 1% on Friday as megacap tech and chip stocks bounced back after a drubbing earlier this week, while investors hoped for a further let-up in inflation in a crucial data release later in the day.
Over a $50 Trillion demand increase is expected for H2 of this year in Gold. If your preference is stocks instead of futures or spot correlated currencies, but you want to spread your allocation with relation to gold related holdings, consider defense related stocks which significantly require gold for product production. An example would be Raytheon, which builds missiles and radar systems among other things, or other entities involved with satellites or other dependent systems. Its also a decent addition to hedge against sudden market shocks.
Q: Do I suspect pending sudden shocks looking outward? A: Very stupid and bad people exist.
I need to see trading hold under EU 0880 in futures and 0852 in spot for a bit before I hit the buy side again on this Friday considering the Geopolitical and general humanity risk headed into the weekend. Odds on favorite is it closes around 0850 barring something dramatic.
