O.T.W: Season to be tank-full  \n• Last week’s data showed strains in the US, raising expectations of a December rate cut. In Europe, near-target inflation lowered expectations of an ECB cut while UK tax hikes weighed on growth forecasts. In Asia, China’s business activity slowed while India’s Q3 growth beat expectations.  \n• Major global equity markets closed the week higher, US Treasury yields declined, and US dollar eased on growing expectation of a Fed rate cut, while crude oil prices edged up.  \n• Two bearish crude oil sell-side reports were released last week calling for a big drop in oil prices in 2026 and 2027. If they are right, that should help bring down gasoline prices too – a welcome boon for the ‘non-EV’ US consumer (COTW) . Alongside a more likely December rate cut (88% probability vs 63% a month ago when equities peaked), a feelgood rally in risk assets to year-end gets some cause.  \n• Lower rates probably matter more to gold than lower gas prices. Gold is close to confirming a technical “triangle” continuation pattern so a resumption of its core uptrend may be close (p6) .  \nData to 29 November 2025.

Building on last week’s gain, gold’s y-t-d return has extended to 61% .  \n• Our model shows that lower FX opportunity (+0 . 9%) and improving gold ETF inflows (+0 . 2) supported gold. And we believe rising geopolitical tensions also contributed (p11) .  \n• Global gold ETF investors ramped up their buying and option traders‘ bullish bets also rose alongside the gold price (p22) .  \n• Gold looks to be forming a fresh “triangle” continuation pattern similar to the one seen in Q4 2024 to suggest we may already be set for a resumption of its core uptrend (p6 & appendix) .  \nThe week ahead  \n• Geopolitical risks should remain key to watch. With President Trump ordering the closure of airspace above and around Venezuela, geopolitical tensions between the two countries further escalated. Meanwhile, Ukraine has further discussed peace terms with the US to end the war with Russia; but Ukraine's hit on Russian tankers and Russia’s strike on Kyiv cloud the outlook.  \n• The Fed’s Beige Book reported a slight dip in employment, but their move next week remains uncertain. Strong Black Friday sales point to resilient US consumption and may weigh on the Fed’s December decision. This week, the delayed September PCE, November ISM PMIs, and Powell’s speech will all be critical in shaping market expectations.  \n\n| Gold market positioning, w/w change |\n| --- |\n| |\n\nSee appendix for details of gold market option activity.
