On June 4, the World Gold Council stated in its gold market commentary report that looking ahead, as inflation pressures rise, the Federal Reserve may need to raise interest rates. We believe that when rate hikes occur, they may counterintuitively benefit gold. Historical data shows that in over 50% of cases, gold performs positively after rate increases. The importance of the dollar's performance against gold seems to outweigh that of interest rates. The convergence of mid-term growth and yields, along with the trend of diversifying investments away from U.S. assets, has paved the way for a weaker dollar in the future. Other factors also support gold: major gold-consuming countries like China and India, as well as global central bank demand for gold, are structurally less sensitive to U.S. interest rates, which may provide support for gold in the future.

U.S. Initial Jobless Claims for Week Ending May 30 at 225,000, Expected 213,000

On June 4, the number of initial jobless claims in the U.S. for the week ending May 30 was 225,000, exceeding the expected 213,000 and the revised previous value of 212,000, marking the highest level since the first week of February. The four-week moving average was 214,750, up from last week's 208,250. Continuing claims for unemployment benefits were 1.777 million, slightly below the expected 1.780 million. The increase in initial jobless claims indicates a weakening labor market, although the levels remain relatively low and stable. Continuing claims saw a slight decline. It is important to note that continuing claims data is reported with a one-week lag, so next week's data will correspond to this week's initial claims data. U.S. stock futures showed mixed results in pre-market trading, with Dow futures up 1%, S&P 500 futures down 0.22%, and Nasdaq futures down over 1%. U.S. Treasury yields fell, with the 2-year Treasury yield at 4.039%, down 4.5 basis points; the 10-year Treasury yield at 4.455%, down 3.8 basis points; and the 30-year Treasury yield at 4.960%, down 3.0 basis points.

On June 4, Bitwise advisor Jeff Park stated on social media that he does not believe the sell-off of Bitcoin is due to Strategy (MSTR) selling Bitcoin. Jeff Park believes that Bitcoin is more likely being used to fund upcoming hot market trades, such as SpaceX, Anthropic, and other assets that investors suddenly feel they 'must hold.' This indicates that the future breakdown of correlation itself will become new fuel.
