- Gold price is fluctuating in a narrow range as traders process the ADP employment data contraction from yesterday and anticipate a lower Nonfarm Payroll report today. According to ADP data, private-sector payrolls unexpectedly dropped in June for the first time in over two years, causing new worries about the resilience of the job market and bolstering the argument for a more liberal monetary policy.
- Additionally, President Trump declared that the United States and Vietnam had reached a trade agreement that would allow American goods to have more access to the Vietnamese market in exchange for the lifting of some of the punitive tariffs on Vietnamese goods.
- Trump said the United States will impose 20% tariffs on Vietnamese goods in exchange, rather than the 46% duties he had declared in April. As July 9th draws near, the agreement is interpreted as a sign that other agreements might be in the works and as hope that trade tensions will not rise again. Additionally, the accord stoked expectations for future bilateral trade agreements.
